One thing I haven't seen anyone post about is mud flaps. I made some and hung them from my rear bumper. I also put Mudbuster flares on the front fenders. They really cut down on the overall mud splatter. If you put some on make sure they are heavy so they won't roll up on the tires . I found some 1/2 inch by 12 inch by 18 inch on line and even found steel weights for the bottoms.
The first ones I tried were too light and rolled up on the tires. These work perfect. I hung some light weight rubber in front of the rear tires also which cut down on the splatter under the belly. Here are a couple of pictures.

This is a little different method to control mud, water ,snow & still use tracks.
The the front fender flairs & Rear skirts are made from boxliner.
The rear extensions are truck rear flaps made to fit the frame extention
The rear frame extension is Sears garage opener tubing left over from install.

Cool, that should really keep the splatter down. One thing I just found out is my front fender flares cover up access into the headlight bulbs. Will have to cut some access because I want to upgrade to LED bulbs.

If your looking for more light led light bar & led pods will give you a lot more bang for the $$$.
Searched on line until & found tbese for $30.00 (sorry that was awhile ago & do not have site info)
Did the LED bulb replacement 1st. NOT even close to the pods & bar. 20 times better
Even if you use only just pod or just bar 10 times better
There is a set of pods on the back too.
