Mud Flaps & 35's?
I'm thinking about getting some mud flaps for my Jeep. I have the 2.5" TF BB lift and 35's and am looking for pics of Jeeps with this same build who have put on mud flaps so I can see if it'll work for me. What do you say guys, can you help me out? Thanks...

No one likes mud flaps. I drive a lot of gravel so I have some but I don't really like the way they look. I just have them to help protect the paint on my doors, etc.
I'm running 34's. Here is a photo of the Mopar flaps:

DO NOT I repeat DO NOT buy the above Mopar hard plastic mud flaps if you actually wheel your Jeep. I have damn near the same setup as you and my nightmare was the fact they drag everywhere and what finally finished them off was driving over a fallen tree and getting a bit high centered, reversed off it and the damn tree took both mud flaps as well as broke a lot of clips on both fender flares. My suggestion is generic rubber ones that fold.

True. I forgot to mention that. They aren't flexable at all. I take them off before off roading. Good for gravel roads, bad for trails.

Thanks for the pics "clypso" hmmm... yeah you're right I don't know if I like the way they look. Hey I see you have the Mopar Rock Rails. I was looking for a pic of those also, looks like I just killed to birds with one stone. Question, do the rock rails install complete with the holes used for the factory side steps? Thanks...

I had flaps on my last JK... I'll post when I can get home to my computer. I had a 2.5" with 35's at one point. Check my gallery, it might still be on there.
