You mean we are not supposed to "store" mud flaps in the buttom of a mud hole, like I did?

I like the cut factory fenders. Just kind of chicken to do it without a spare set of something in case I botch the job.

I'm very confused. Do they flex or do they transfer the impact to the body?
Transfer the impact to the body. There is no "give" in them.

JAYKAY69 can tell you it is better to have cut stock, He put his against a rock on Miller Trail today and it snaped off instead off instead of denting the tub, oh wait the rock dented his tub. but we did get to put the fender back on.
So I would go with cut stock.
