Brickwerks mudflaps

Post by **Donald360** » 13 Oct 2022, 18:09

Hi all

I recently bought a set of mudflaps from Brickwerks. They seem pretty heavy duty, but don't come with any fitting instructions. I'm loathe to start randomly drilling without some proper guidance as we have just shelled out several thousand pounds on bodywork renovation. Has anyone fitted these? Or is there a link to a video etc?

Thanks
Donald

I think they are too heavy duty for the 2WD vans. I regretted drilling my old Velle to fit them. Welded up the holes later and went for the alternative mud flaps, which fit on the arches only.

Yes, you’re still going to need to drill some pin holes in the inner arch, for the self tapping screws but that’s better than drilling your visible bodywork / side panel. I put a dab of sealant in the holes, to stop them rusting.

I didn't drill any holes for mine.. The arch part uses spring clips and. The part that attaches to the chassis rail seam. Is a bolt clamp affair

Iv have done 5000 miles since fitting mine.. ( not the pics above just what i researched when choosing mine) and had no issues with the clips and bolt

Nice solution

My kit did not come with the arch clamps, only the chassis bracket.

They are the Same clips as used on the T4 and are what heritage supply
clips
Can't remember how many are needed but you can see the subtle indents on the mudflaps.. And just do the Maths
