This is what you need UltraGuard Splash Guard/Mudflaps on Sale and they are fairly easy to install.

I am happy with my DIY UltraGuard. Went with the full package. Mine is two or three inches higher than most I've seen so I am pretty sure it doesn't drag or kick up any stones. I did use a toad front cover on the ALCAN hwy last year but only felt it was necessary for a less than 100 miles total.

Also happy with my DIY UltraGuard. The gas tank and trailer hitch limited placement choices. I settled on 2' behind the rear wheels and about 4" off the ground. No chips on our 2010 toad so it certainly isn't hurting.

Hi Bob, I have a Rock Solid brand flap that hangs off the rear bumper. It came on the C when we bought it. Towing the son-in-laws boat, it works really good, never anything on the front of the boat. It is made of fairly stiff material, about 1" off the ground. I can hear it drag when going into and out driveways. But that is okay, for what it does.When I get my dolly for the toad. I now know that the toad will be ok back there.
Bill

We had that full flap on the back of our Ultimate; I call it a parachute; Took it off put it in the dumpster Put flaps behind the rear and front wheels; No braw on the tow ;; no chips on the tow; Just what in the heck does that full flap do any way;; Before you answer think about it.. Not to much flying up in the center on the coach; Some will say rocks fly out the side; Well i herd cows jump over the moon.. I never seen that ether;; Life is good..

I installed the brush style. Heard the mud flap solid style are nosie ? I would also use a front cover (bra) on the toad or dolly shield.

We had a couple that had a new coach and tow car on the Alaska trip.I told him to remove that parachute that was draging the air under the coach; He Knew better. We got back he had to repaint the front end of his car, as it had allready been sand/rock blasted; The Problem is this; The total up and down motion of the coach is 7.400 Now I want to ask the person at what height do you set the dragging wind chute;; I personly want allthat dirt and dust to get out from under my coach, And not have some silly flap holding it under the coach; A little flap bekind each wheel is what we have; No braw, no screen no rock chips; How can anyone dissagree with secucess;; Our Fuel milage went up near 1 mile per gallon, without that drag;; Life is good;;

Mud flap worked for me..

Just make sure you put it in the correct distance from the tires, for your rig.
