Ive built some for the M818's , just bolt a peice of steel flat bar from Lowes on each side of the frame , go to a truck dealer or Fleet Pride and pick up a set of brackets and hangers then add your flaps. Bolt the mud flap hanger holder to the flat bar. Get tough flaps though , cheap ones just sail like a bed sheet even with weights added.

Very simple and can be done in half a hour with simple tools and look Great.

4x4e350 the flaps look good and I like the receiver set up. Are you running a three point hitch too?
Thanks. The center reciever bar is attached to the truck by a reciever on each side, that is just so it can be removed, and I can use the pintle hitch, so no it does not have a 3 pt hitch.

Real nice setup 4x4.What do you use for civy trailer wiring?
I just use LED tail lights, they can be used for both 12 and 24 volts, for the side markers I just replace the 12 v bulbs with 24 v bulbs I got from Bulbsdirect for 88 cents a piece. I just ordered a Tekonsha P3 brake controller, I am going to hook up through the 12 v converter I already have in the truck.

I bought Betts mud flap hangers for my M818. The local distributor is Weldon truck parts The frame mount K750 fits some existing frame holes and installation is easy.

The B86 kit is the mud flap hanger buy the K750 frame mount. You can use the frame mounts that come with the kit, but you have to drill holes. You can get mud flaps for about $8:00 each for the cheap ones.
