Great pictures! That really helps a lot! Did you have to drill a bunch of holes to install and where exactly?

Many thanks!

There are 4 small, wax-coated self-drilling/tapping screws for each side, plus three push pins. The push pins are along the top edge of the wheel opening, the holes are already in the sheetmetal and in the liners. If you look carefully in the pics (especially the first one), you can see the bolts, there are two on each bottom edge roughly above the leaf springs. The holes are predrilled in the liners, just spin the bolts with a drill-mounted 5/16 socket.

They also do not interfere with the OEM mudflaps.

Speaking of mud flaps...I have a set ready to install but the "word on the street" around here is the OEM molded flaps chafe the paint where they wrap around the well...any such problems with yours?

 

[Greatbear]

So far so good with the paint rubbing issue. There is a factory piece of clear plastic film applied to the bottom corner where the flap mounts, it's there to help prevent stone chips. I am considering wrapping the area where all the flaps mount just to be safe.

How do these work with the B&W turn over ball locking mechanism? Any problems?

Do these fit well with factory fender flares?

the flares would be fine, the liner fits inside the odiginal body

Well, thanks to raengines and Greatbear, I installed the wheel house liners on my 2007.5. Did have a little problem with the 5th wheel mounting brackets that bolt to the frame but it still looks better than stock. I am not very "mechanical minded" so I took a bunch of pictures in case there are readers like me! Took me a little more than an hour...instructions say only 30 minutes!

Tried to put them in sequencial order but couldn't get Photobucket to cooperate! Click the thumbs!

Thanks for the help!

I have the molded mud flaps and they don't interfere although it looks like I need to take them off to check for rubbing and install some type of protection between them and my paint

I have been looking for some bulk rolls of 3m Paint Protective Film but it seems impossible to find. I did order the OEM stuff they put in front of the rear fender flare on the new trucks. Expensive! $12 for roughly an 8 inch x 2 inch piece. This was the closest thing I could find online! As soon as I get one or the other I will install the molded flaps!

Best of luck!

hello ...can some one send me a invoice with the part # for the wheel liners.....i called the chevy dealer and gave them the # posted here and they said that was not a good #.....i told them i saw them installed and they said they were not out .......so any help would be great......

 

[SJH]

Here is a link to the GM Accessory parts. I ordered mine from our local Chevy dealer Part #19166676. These are for the new body style with single rear wheels.

Also found a different Paint Protection FIlm supplier...ordered but have not received it yet so can't give any specific information.

 

[nosgsxr]

[Nine Ball]

Thanks for posting the info and pics, I'll be getting a set of these too!

 

[HanksLBZ]

I take it that these are only for the NBS? Is this correct? I'd like to add some to mine but I've got an 06

 

[lloyd christmas]

yeah i would like them for my 06 also...

 

[smokindmaxdsl]

Can you get these for older trucks?

 

[CHV_FRK]

Thanks SJH for the pics. I was wondering if it would work with my fifth wheel hitch and then I saw your pics. Sweet.

 

[Boge]

These would be cool for the classics, I just went and sprayed mine with undercoating spray. Looks good.
