OEM mud flaps and Husky wheel well liners, 2 questions
I bungled my order, so I currently have a set of the OEM splash guards for the front and rear. It looks like I'll have the Husky wheel well liners in a week or so, based on prior shipping times. They are going on my new 2016 XLT FX4
Can I go ahead and install the mud flaps and then go back and install the wheel well liners once they arrive? Or am. I just asking for a headache. I have no problem waiting for the wheel liners to arrive and put them both on at once, but if it's not too much of a hassle I'd rather put the flaps on now.
Also, anyone who installed the flaps and liners, will the hardware that is installed with the liners and flaps be ok? Or will I have to go out and get some longer screws or anything since it looks like they may share some screw holes.

Don't have the husky liners but my truck came with the factory mud flaps installed and I installed the oem liners after I took delivery no problems. I think the way it looks it is likely easier to do the flaps first anyways.

Were they the molded splash guards that your truck came with? If so I'll slap mine on tomorrow before work

OK, thanks. I installed the splash guards this morning and am waiting for the liners. I thought there might be some common fastener points between them. But, after putting them on it looks like there won't.

Yah, i just the same thing about 3 weeks ago on my new 2016, no prob. Make sure you put that insulator/isolator clear strip onto the box, the metal bracket for the splash guard support needs to be isolated from the aluminum box panel.
