Out with the old, in with the new (splash aprons that is)

[Summers22]

Replacing upper A-arms, lower ball joints and shocks today, so decided to spruce up the splash aprons. $13 for 3 feet of rubber flooring from Home Depot.

Ignore the hole on the far right, its not "off". When I installed the new O2 sensors, I went through the wheel well, on the driver side, I trimmed off about 1" of the corner of the inner fender liner to get my arm in there easier and made a new hole in the fender liner afterwards. I wont install these until after the alignment.

Nice! Resourceful.

do you mind sharing the SKU for that - I have been looking for something affordable rubber similar for another project and the cheapest I could find was $48 for a pre-cut.. I assume that is in the "by the foot" custom cut but nothing at my local... with the sku I could hunt in several other places a little further afield.

@Brain75 absolutely! You have helped me a ton here already. I used this, 2 feet may have done it, but 3 is safe.

well that answers it... unavailable in sterling, greeley, scottsbluff (NE), etc etc - nearest place is Cheyenne (WY) or Brighton - guess this one goes on the list for the next time I have Dr appt. back in civilization and I get to swing by the "big" town.

Many thanks $4/ lin. ft is way more in the price range (now if only they would deliver)...

 

[Summers22]

Check Menards if you have one nearby, I got some similar a few years back.

appreciate the reminder..I had forgotten about them... unfortunately like the despot nearest one is Cheyenne.... but two places to look if I find myself a reason to be in Chy town...

What about Lowe's, if you have them there?

 

[Brain75]

same story about distance only a little farther, I think the closest Lowes is either greeley or mccook NE, if not Lincoln NE... I literally live in the middle of nowhere.
The closest farm supply store that isn't ma/pa is Tractor Supply Yuma (CO not AZ) but that is still not insignificant.
