I drive a lot of dirt roads so mud flaps are a must for me. I'm on Weathertech site and they don't have an option for 'Yes' I have the factory lip molding-which I think that I have. Will these not work for me?

I just put front and rear weather tech mud flaps on my 2016 GMC Sierria part number 110036 front and 120036 rear and they fit like a glove .

Thanks guys but I'm looking for the Silverado. I've found install videos on the 2015 with the plastic rock molding like I have on my 16 and it fits, and Weathertech doesn't offer them. I found an amazon review saying they fit so I went ahead and ordered them and hoping for the best.

What do you mean by plastic rock molding. Are you talking about fender flares?

No it's like a small grey plastic piece behind the front and rear wheel

He has them in this video and uses the same part number I ordered. They'll be here today.

Ok so that is just the standard plastic piece everyone has.

Awesome, that's what I was thinking. Thanks!

If you need any accessories, would love to help. We have couple of toys for you at www.eTruckGear.com and offer honest service ( with 100 % positive Amazon feedback we try hard to be there for the customer)

Stop by and take a look. Tonno Pro is a nice brand to look at. Not that well known but super quality and low price. We are also Weathertech approved, meaning warranty applies as opposed to purchases on Amazon. Will be glad to help.

I'm all about function as much as anything and I realize some people don't like mud flaps to make their vehicle appear cleaner and more lifted. Mud flaps serve a purpose for me, I had the specially made by GM mud flaps on my Chevy Avalanche for 15 years, it was easy to see over time having the mud flaps paid off in helping keep the vehicle clear of fender debris with less chips in the paint.

 

I ordered both the WeatherTech and Husky mud flaps, both are excellent. After holding both styles of mud flaps in place on my truck, I could see a few differences. If I remember correctly, the Husky mud flaps were about 2 inches longer than the WeatherTechs but I can't remember if it was the front or the rear set (I think it was the rear) , the other set was roughly the same as the Weathertechs in length. I decided to keep the Weathertech and return the Huskys for these reasons. The Weathertechs did not require any drilling but honestly that doesn't mean much to me because if I think something needs to be fastened properly to function properly, then I'll add the necessary hardware, so far I haven't felt the need to add any screws to the Weathertechs. The Weathertechs also have the slight bulge contour that very closely matches the small mud guard in front of the rear wheel, the huskys were simply flat in shape. Overall, I felt the Weathertechs had the better fit and look for my vehicle but no points taken away from Husky, it's a matter of preference.

Just a head up, I had mudflaps on my 07 but they were the OEM ones. They trapped dirt/moisture/salt where they meet up against the fender. The paint started to peel and rust under the flaps. I know they will work better for those who drive down gravel roads all the time, but I'll never have a set again.

On the newer vehicles, the mud flaps mount direct on the moulded fender flare not directly on the metal part of the fender. So I guess it stands to reason if you have molded fender flares the same scenario exist in regards to trapping salt, dirt and other debris in between the actual metal body fender panel and the molded plastic whether you have mud flaps or not. Everyone has a different situation, and in my situation I won't never not have mud flaps.

      2015 Sierra Denali L86 cyl 5 misfire at idle

      By Gkistler · Posted

      Hi friends - first time poster. I have a 2015 sierra Denali with 150k miles, I’m the second owner and she’s given me 75k of great service. I run a pulse AFM disable device. Starting Thursday when I exited the freeway after a short local ride it started idling rough, with an obvious misfire shake and was down on low end power.  I got it home and hooked it up to my scannner and found no codes but in live data a pretty bad misfire on cylinder 5. I replaced the coil, plug and wire with all new OE replacements (Delphi gn10165 coil, acdelco wire and 41-168 plug). It’s still behaving the same way after firing the parts cannon at it.   I know cyl 5 is a non AFM cylinder so I am not thinking this is AFM related but I’m kinda at a loss. injector? Bent pushrod? It’s running too well over 1k rpm to suggest those IMO. Has anyone chase this issue before and what was it? Any suggestions?

      Pulsating Noise 4Cyl Mode

      By zibzer2 · Posted

      2017 Silverado L83 5.3l 6speed transmission Hello, not a new member but havent posted in a while and my old signup info isnt working so had to create a new account. anyways, I have an issue with my truck and hope someone can spread some light on whats happening: -when it goes to 4cyl mode it makes a clunk sound (but not when coasting or going downhill) -when in 4 cyl mode and under load it makes a load pulsating sound (not a tick). -goes away completely when in M5 gear or when plugging in an AFM delete. Im guessing it is one of 2 things but im not convinced of either to be honest. 1. lifter stuck in v8 mode 2. torque converter shudder realistically it doesn't seem like the TC as there is no physical vibration , and it never happens in v8 mode. but maybe? and wouldnt a lifter make a sound whether with load or not? any ideas let me know please. thank you!

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Which has made me wonder with the various engine failures of a few brands in the last few years, is it sub par materials such as lifters etc causing failures, or bearing clearances on the crank etc or perhaps bad designing of an engine physically or causing too much load on the components due to the hp/torque they can push out of them. Or is the oil viscosity and additive package of current oils or a lack of oil flow by an oil pump not able to supply sufficient oil at idle or under high load at low rpm. Or is it every item I listed that combined together has pushed the limits so far to the left that there is hardly a margin of safety left and add in some fuel dilution and too long of an OCI and premature engine failure is the result ?.

      He is not saying that an SAE *W20 will have more viscosity than a *W40 due to MORE VII polymers. He is saying that although multiple *W40 may post in the PDS the same or similar 100 C and 150 C viscosities that the blenders choice of modifier TYPE and AMOUNT to get his chosen base to grade will not give identical real world viscosities in shear and at temperature. All will pass the SII test but not all will pass the 100 C HTHS (unpublished value) testing the blender does and relies on to get the required by law "percentage improvement' referenced to his last great work.    Tis the problem with the lie. Once told others are required to support it.

      Parking Brake - Automatic Engagement Questions

      By PunchT37 · Posted

      I have a `25, 1500 that auto sets on incline. Never knew that at first. I have the electronic shifter. Just think if it didn`t do that? Unlike a mechanical shift that you can muscle out of park, how would you get this thing out? That would be a problem.   What I found out later is, I don`t have to push the button to release. Just put it in gear.   Setting parameters? Don`t know if it`s possible.
