INSTALLATION

(For ease of installation it is suggested that the wheel be removed)

  1. Before you install your Mud Flap Set, see the diagram and parts list for all necessary parts.
  2. Remove the two factory screws from the factory guard in the wheel well.
  3. Remove the push pin from the underside of the guard. This push pin is holding the portion of the guard protecting the push pin. It may be difficult to remove from the side facing you. We suggest going between the guard and the pinch weld to separate them so that you can push out the push pin from behind.
  4. Once the push pin is removed, reinstall the guard into position with the existing tab.
  5. Install capscrew (c) through a nylon washer (j) into factory hole #1 and insert a half washer (l) and bracket hole # 3 onto the protruding part of the screw, ensuring that bracket hole #2 is installed on factory bolt (see Diagrams #1 & #2).
  6. Secure bracket hole #2 to the factory bolt using a nylon washer (k), flat washer (h), lock washer (m), and M6-1 hex nut (p) (See Diagram #2).
  7. Secure bracket hole #3 to capscrew (c) using a nylon washer (k), flat washer (h), lock washer (m), and hex nut (n) (See Diagram #2).TRUCK-HARDWARE-2022-F-150-Lightning-Mud-Flap-Set-Front-fig- \(5\) TRUCK-HARDWARE-2022-F-150-Lightning-Mud-Flap-Set-Front-fig- \(6\)
  8. Secure mud flap holes #8 & #9 to factory holes #5 & #6 using a sheet metal screw (d) and flat washer (g).
  9. Install mud flap hole #7 to bracket hole #7 using a capscrew (b), flat washer (e), nylon washer (i), and washer strip (r), and secure with a nylon washer (i), flat washer (f), lock washer (m) and hex nut (n).
    • Note: Be sure to install the washer strip at approximately the 2:00 position so that it puts pressure on the upper section to prevent debris from falling behind the mudflap (See Diagram #3 for washer strip position).
  10. Using a square or bubble level, ensure that the mud flap is level. Tighten all fasteners.
  11. Clean the upper section of the wheel well with alcohol to prepare for protective tape.
  12. Hold the upper section of the mud flap tight against the wheel well. Using a marker, make a small mark on the fender through mudflap holes #10 & #11 to determine where to install the spring nuts (q).
  13. Pull the mudflap away from the fender and install/center the 3M tape protectors where you have marked your spring nuts (q) to be installed.
  14. Install the spring nuts (q) with the extruding end facing out over the 3M tape protectors.
  15. Secure mudflap holes #10 & #11 to spring nuts (q) using a capscrew (a) and flat washer (e)TRUCK-HARDWARE-2022-F-150-Lightning-Mud-Flap-Set-Front-fig- \(7\)
