Mud flaps/gaurds/flares
Hey there, has anyone got any ideas where to get some material strong enough to make up some flares for my truck, I need them to be 80-90mm wide to make my truck legal. I'd like them to be flexible so conveyor belt material may be what I need, just not sure where to get it. Thanks, Matt.
Re: Mud flaps/gaurds/flares
You could always try your local quarry and see if they have any old belts?
Ok people, move along. Nothing to see here. Thank you, move along.

Where in the country are you??
Most quarry belts are a bit thick.....You need the thin stuff they work sand and such with i think.

I'm gonna check out HCD in Hamilton this Saturday.
Re: Mud flaps/gaurds/flares
Went to HCD on Saturday and they are very helpfull. Got myself some belt, enough to make flares for 4 guards easily for $10.
Re: Mud flaps/gaurds/flares
Should keep the warrant man happy. Not bad for $10 I reckon!

Re: Mud flaps/gaurds/flares
How much do you need, what truck are they going on. The stuff I got was 300mm wide so I got 4 strips of 75 out of it, 55-60mm of flare.
Re: Mud flaps/gaurds/flares
its for a 130 surf, so should be roughly the same dimensions as yours..
