I have the “Rock Tamers” brand of rock guards. Same concept, mount to the receiver but they have a beefier mount and cross bar that holds the flaps. Flaps are not quite as wide as those but they keep rocks from damaging the RV. We go down lots of gravel roads here in Arizona.

Hey Corey, I know this is older video , but I was curious if you still use these and if so what’s your opinion of them after extended use ? Thanks !

I took them off after a few hitches. Overall they performed well. I was happy. I simply didn’t want to continually move them from hitch to hitch and occasionally I took my hitch off entirely which was a mess. If you can look past that aspect I would give them a thumbs up. If you’re near Athens Georgia I’m happy to give you mine. $0.00.

I appreciate that !! @@WanderingWeekends I am not but I do have family near there and visit from time to time so if I haven’t come up with a solution before my next visit I may take you up on the generous offer. It will fit a 2.5” shank , correct ?

I am planning a trip to Alaska. I think these are a must have for this trip. So thanks for the review. My one question, Do these block the radar sensors in the bumper?

Great question. This truck isn’t that fancy so I can’t answer. I do miss the sensors though.

Interesting.... I never really thought of these. I might have to look into these a lil more. I have an 08 F350 PSD CCLB 4X4 with 35 inch BFG K02'S and have found that they like to sling the rocks. Our camper has a diamond plate rockguard. Why ding it if you can prevent it?

Any signs of melting near exhaust pipe? I know you have gas truck, but new diesels will see 12-1400 degrees at the tip during regens. There are a few examples of damage to 5th wheel fiberglass.

No, no melting here. I too have heard of regents causing problems for these types of flaps but as you mentioned I’m driving a gasser. Could be worth a scroll through the Amazon reviews to see if this flap has that issue.

I believe whole heartedly that construction site we passed a few weeks ago would have slung marble sized mud all over the rig (because that’s what was on the flap) but instead the rig only received a mist. I’m not sure there is anything that would protect from the mist the tire create at 60mph. I’m glad it’s back there. Just my opinion/experience of course.

You must remove it with the shank so if you’re taking it all off it’s a bit heavy but one pin and you’re done.

Thanks for the video. Am currently looking for one of these. Most only fit a 2" ball mount, but I have a 2.5". I was wondering the same thing about how stable/rigid LUVERNE's mounting system was. It would be nice to be able to mount directly to the receiver. BTW, what do you use for mounting your bike rack to the RV tongue?

Not my thing but I see them frequently. It looks like it will block 90% of the debris from your own tires. If they can invent something that keeps bug splatter off the front of a trailer I'll pay whatever it costs!! 😄

Interesting opinion. I enjoy taking care of my things. It’s certainly not a “must have” but some of us like to keep our toys looking nice.
