You want them to be easily removable because on short trailers they will hit the landing gear.

Ray they clear my trailer and that's all I'm concerned about. But they are held on by 2 boltswitch I can wrench off easy

It seems that the welding clamps would be easy to loose going down the road...

Here's what I did for mud flaps on my M818. These are Betts mud flap holders. I got the B86 kit and comes with both sides and the mounts. They are quickly removable with one pin holding them on. These are 3/4" thick and should be durable. I paid about $80 at Weldon Truck Parts but have seen them for less on-line. The mud flaps themselves are the super cheapos at about $6 each.

The flaps would look even better if you had someone laser cut "mudflap girls with helmets"
paint them olive drab and mount them.

I can make those women on vinyl and put them on a magnetic sheet so you can put them on and off any metal surface when the wife isnt looking.

Thanks for the offer A/C, But I think I better play it safe...

Yeah I dont think those steel panels I gave you will ever rust thru before the rest of the trailer rusts away. lol
I will be bringing you a little more foam for it on Sat.

I dont think shes going to leak with all that goop there.
Now im waiting to see where you are going to mount that 50cal ring at.

Thanks for the metal n foam. The seams are being scraped then sealed n painted then roof top coating
Then painted. I need a side glass.
