BratWarrior Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Finally going to put the front and rear mud flaps on my '84 BRAT. What bolts do I need to grab from the hardware store? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonas Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 It actually uses a screw with a hex head. I would do something stainless or aluminum. Drive the brat there and ask to test fit. Wish I had front flaps for my Brat. Maybe Santa this year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BratWarrior Posted November 17, 2012 Author Share Posted November 17, 2012 Ah yes, I am starting to recall. Is it just the hex screw or is there a nut that it screws into? Great profile pic btw:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonas Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Just screws. I see no reason you can't use bolts if that makes you feel more comfortable. Oh, and for all your legal needs....www.bettercallsaul.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep an eye out at wrecking yards. That's where i found mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BratWarrior Posted November 29, 2012 Author Share Posted November 29, 2012 I saw clip and screw sets at Knechts. Interesting! I decided to just use bolts. nuts and washers. It was kind of a pain to install the flaps without something holding the nuts on, but it works just fine. I'll pick up some of those clips next time I'm at a Knechts.

Subruise Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 you can use all kinds of mudflaps if you cant find some for a brat. my buddy has maxima stuff all over his legacy, looks great. find something you like and use it. get some self tapping panhead screws and call it a day RV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
