Just got a set of these in. The instructions are ridiculously useless. It’s like “mark with pencil, hit with hammer, look at it twice, repeat on other side.” Okay... thanks

Did you pull the fender trim off and drill underneath, then drill the trim at the same location? It’s so confusing.

I did not pull the fender trim for the rear. I had to hold the flap in place, kind of guess where I want the pilot hole to go for the top bolt, drill through the flap and trim, then I could finish the hole and place the little metal bracket things along the trim and drill the rest of the holes out. I then threaded the screws into the holes, lined up the flap, and pressed it into the bolt heads to leave impressions so I knew where to drill.

I tried to remove the trim on the front, but broke a plastic clip, so decided not to and take my chances just drilling into the plastic. Seemed to work okay, and they are still held on nice and strong.

I'm torn between the OEM Ford guards and the Rock Blockz. I've had experience with the RB guards on an F150, and they were very good. They look a bit much for the Ranger though. The OEM is cheaper and has a smoother look to them. Thoughts?

There's a big blue oval with FORD in the center of tailgate. Adding (2) more ovals and Ford on mudflaps is over the top.

Have you looked at the WeatherTech mud flaps? They have a smooth look, and no FORD branding. Here's a link: https://www.ranger5g.com/forum/threads/weathertech-mud-flaps.3945/

My OEM ovals are very hard to see and I don't mind them as every single part on this vehicle has a stamp or embossed FORD oval on it if you look close enough.

Anyone got the install guide? For those of you that have them installed, do you foresee any issues trying to make it fit on aftermarket flares?

I used the Weather Guard no drill flaps. Easy to install, looks great and no drilling.

I like the minimalist OEM guards, they get the job done without calling attention to themselves. If I had to switch, I would put Rock Blocks on instead of one of the larger, flashier models.

I installed the Ford version myself. For those concerned about drilling holes, it may help to know that all drilling is through plastic parts. There is no drilling into metal.

Ordered the FORD OEMs, got them tuesday, used my pass reward points before I loose them. Wanted these on before the Midwest slop hits the streets. Easy to install minimal tools & look good too. This project is a 2 thumbs up.

Hi Larry,

About your tools....Why did you need the distributor wrench shown on the far left?
Sometimes called a Ford Wrench....

Hi Phil,
I used the rubber end of my LFH to tap in a couple of the plastic fasteners. By the way I love all your story's.

Thanks James. I love my Plain Jane. Just a few do-dads hear & there to make it my own. When you install the flaps hold them firm against the trim & body when you drill your hole. I think this makes for a better fit.
