Wheel Flaps
Those wheel flaps on the rear of your truck may seem like a very minor item in your maintenance program, but they
are important. All are for the express purpose of preventing rocks, water and debris being thrown from a truck's
rear tires against a following car.
Wheel flaps offer direct advantages to the truck owner-driver. They can help reduce the buildup of road grime and
mud under the truck body. And, good-looking flaps with the company's name or symbol on them can provide
effective and free advertising.
So, the next time you give your rig an inspection, take a couple of minutes to check the condition of the rear wheel
flaps. Look for broken brackets, cracks and excessive wear and replace them if necessary. It could pay off in more
ways than one.
