2017 Expedition Limited New Mud Flaps.

[barrydu4]

As some of you know my wife and I just purchase a new 2017 Expedition Limited to replace a 2012 Expedition Limited that was totaled in a wreck. I could no find mud flaps for the 2012 but I did find some for the 2017. I ordered them the other day and they came in today. It took me around 20 minutes to install all 4. We've only had the 2017 Expedition for about 2 weeks and I already had some tar and some nicks by the wheels. It came out fantastic. I highly recommend them to ya'll. Like on my 2013 Ford F-150 XLT it has stopped a lot of road damage.

Those look fantastic. Adding this to my “to do” list. Please post the link...

I get their functionality but mud flaps just don’t make a vehicle look better IMO. Especially when they’re on all 4 corners

I wonder about bolting them on ... up here in Salt City, NY
anyplace that corrosive mixture can hide is where rust seems get a foothold
i.e. in between the mudflap and the Expedition body will pack & hold with salt, dirt, water

Gotta wd40 or oil spray everything!

Fluid Film is your friend, I coat my entire underbody twice yearly. Some guys swear by using motor oil too.

What they said ^
My truck gets oil sprayed yearly. They drill holes in my body panels (rockers too) and spray inside all of them as well as the frame. Only way to keep a vehicle rust free up in the north.

Weathertech has them. I keep my vehicles waxed. I do the both of them twice a year. They also fit tightly. I don't like that road tar and nicks on my vehicles. Call me crazy.....lol

 

[Edward VanGulden]

Were these specifically designed to work with the power running boards?

Ed

 

[barrydu4]

Yes Ed they do. When I had my 2017 Ford Expedition Limited and it was not available. Now they do. I purchased the set and the fronts work with the power running boards. I have some pics I posted earlier.

 

[Edward VanGulden]

Barry,

Can you tell me which front and rears you got....When I go in their website and plug in my vehicle info it only gives me options for the front....Odd!

Ed

 

[barrydu4]

No problem Edward. I have a 2017 Ford Expedition Limited with the power running boards. For my Expedition the numbers are Front: 110071 and the rear is 120071. They fit perfectly and was no trouble to install. I hope this helps.

Good Man Barry.....for making it easy for those that want them.....

or have time to install them.....

I'm still trying to figure out how out of 4 new White trucks in my office, mine is the only one that looks black all the time! We've got a F250SD, a F150 Ranch Plat(or whatever it's called), a Chev Denali dually and mine....all about a year or so old....and somehow they keep theirs clean.....maybe I'm doing the wrong things with Kerry(LMAO)....maybe I need to free up a bit more of her time?

Jeff, I don't mind helping others. I've asked for help before on this site and it was given glady. As far as your truck looking bad I can't help. LOL I always try to keep my stuff as clean as possible. I know it's hard when you work, etc. My two brothers tease me cause I keep all my equipment clean. You ought to see my 4-wheeler and zero turn. LOL I just know it costs money and I don't want to have to pay for more.

Ed, if you have an EL WeatherTech does not have the rear Mudflaps for the EL at this point. Apparently there is a slight difference between the standard length and the long wheelbase.

@Wally is a designer at Weathertech and he said that he was going to take a look at the what the differences in the EL and standard WB models to see what it would take to design a mud flap for the rear of the EL.

Unfortunately, our mudflap #120071 will not work for the El version. The fender contour, wheel to fender placement, hole locations, and liner are all minutely different. Trying to make a single mudflap to fit both vehicles would lead to subpar fitting on both vehicles. Decision was to first make for non-EL versions. We strive for a quality product. Yes you can get it to work but here's what will be wrong. Give us some time(3months , don't quote me on that) and we will have a rear mudflap for the EL to sell. http://www.weathertech.com/service/product-updates/

Thanks for bursting my bubble @Wally . I made it through this winter - mostly at this point. They will be easier to install in the summer anyway.

Not to step on Wally or Weathertech, I have several of their products on or in all my vehicles, but Husky Liners make a rear mud flap for our ELs...part #57651...works well on mine.
