How To Make Custom Inner Fender Splash Guards!

[@cherylvillone7774]

GREAT IDEA!!!!!!!!!! I’VE BEEN TRYING TO FIGURE THIS OUT FOREVER!!!! THANX SO MUCH!!!

[@petescarport]

Honestly that looks amazing. Feels good to do things like this that most people don't care about

[@truthx5854]

I like how you focus on details. Good job 👍🏻

[@joestulac709]

Yeah I made pretty thick guards about 3 yrs ago I still have them unused

[@nickm.7239]

Watching you cut out the outlines for the new one was very satisfying

[@1RoadGarage]

Haha I know.. for me too while I was watching back..

[@jameshall4385]

those splash guards look really great. that is an amazing tip

[@jeremyroberts6682]

I watch a lot of videos on KZbin. You do an amazing job with doin the at home stuff and being focused on detail. Thank you. I just always wander why people put a thumbs down. It looks great and you are showing the easement of dyi. Again awesome job and love the truck/suv

[@EricErnst]

That's very clever. I have one that is ripped nearly in half and dangling. I'd never even thought to remake some. Good on you.

[@davidkmillerphotography]

Where did you get the sheet rubber and what thickness is it?

[@Rein_Ciarfella]

Stumbled onto this one totally by accident. Complete coincidence, but about the time this video was made I had already figured out I was going to replace missing and destroyed fenderwell liners the exact same way! I hadn't gotten around to sourcing the sheet rubber yet but I was wondering whether or not this would actually work. I guess I can go ahead and add the job to my ongoing list of automotive chores. :) Thanks for posting!

[@kenswitzer4133]

Makes you feel good to DIY.

[@teo8424]

Your holding up to a great standard that's what I like. Now I have a new project for my 1997 GMC Sierra. 😋😊😎😁

[@1RoadGarage]

Haha. Thanks! I hope these things last especially being near the exhaust manifolds... 😨

[@x-man5056]

I always keep a silver and a black Sharpie in my tool box for marking. Silver one works great on black rubber.

[@kennethdornhecker8436]

Awesome idea man. Replacing the struts on my 94 Suburban today, so I will be adding that to my to do list also. Mine are pretty well wrecked.

[@tomreyes4908]

I went to my local pick and pull and pay salvage yard and purchased a large sheet of car trunk liner material off an old car. I did the same thing you did and so far its working well. Paid $5.00 for the whole trunk sheet. Once it wears out, I'll be heading back to the salvage yard to get me another piece. Seems durable enough.

[@larryoutdoors8437]

Yeah, I'm missing one on the passing side. After a couple of trips to the shop these RIP. Thanks for a good simple video.

[@casperyost3552]

Great job, Jimmy. You inspired me to change out all weatherstripping,too. What an improvement. My barn doors no longer shake!

[@REVNUMANEWBERN]

Jimmy, what about posting the source where you got your material for those who want to do the same, TY

[@bigjim1408]

Love your videos Jimmy, I have a 2004 Suburban and you have help me with a lot of great tips.....

[@azizlenox]

I used inner tire tube for making them 👍🏼. Thank you for this great video.

[@kstricl]

Geez you keep this up, you're going to shame me into actually fixing my 95 burb... Looks awesome, and thanks for the link to the kit.

[@dragonite986]

I think this is my weekend project now

[@ANT_704]

Great job. Where did you get that rubber material from

[@micahyarbrough5513]

Awesome! My Suburban's are looking like your old ones, and my K1500 pickup is missing them all together.

[@OttoMatieque]

Nice job. Leaving the splash-guard long looks like it might provide better coverage and help keep the engine bay a little cleaner. The only question I would have is about heat and fire resistance difference between the OEM and DIY material. Since you have the originals and leftover from the job, it might be worth doing a test to make sure a surprise fire doesn't popup in your future.

[@bsalightning69]

I'd be interested in that info myself before making my own as well.

[@ronjlwhite8058]

That turned out sweet!!!

[@dabruiser7938]

You would be the guy to make custom inner fender well splash guard😂 not a knock, I’m just impressed with your detail!

[@4priusnt]

Where did you get the new material?????

[@joelmonleon6471]

Do you have a link to buy the rubber skirt material?

[@re9473]

Where did u buy the big Piece of rubber to cut for the liner i want to make my own as well for my f150

[@trashclanofficial]

Same here where can I buy?

[@aaronpowell4885]

Thanks for the great idea Jimmy! I really need to replace mine. On my 1990 Silverado after almost 700k miles the small front drivers side is gone and the other 3 are pretty ragged.

[@1RoadGarage]

if you're talking about the small piece that protects the front area of the bumper I think there is only one installed on the passenger side from the factory...

Awesome.. looks better than the original.

[@OmarRamirez-oi1vm]

I love how your truck looks. I’ve been watching since you first got the truck. I will look around to see where I can buy a rubber sheet to replace mine in my 97 Tahoe. Truck looks awesome with those tires too. 👍🏻

[@1RoadGarage]

Thanks man!!

Really looks professional. If you wanted to, you could customize with letters and/or paint.

Looks amazing. What is the approximate length of the splash guard.

[@أبوعابدالبلادي]

Better than the original.👌👍

Awesome job Jimmy

Looks great, now hit that frame rail w some Rust-Oleum.

[@chicagomike6666]

Another outstanding video. the timing of your video was perfect! I just installed new injectors and glowplugs---over two weekends. I also had to reinstall a new wiring harness on passenger side for glow plugs. The old splash guards were toast. Rather than pay $50 for a replacement ebay set--I did my own. So far seem perfect---and just in time for our first big snow fall....lol

[@danhambrick6331]

Nice job Jim Bob...

[@theANGRIERone]

I dig 'em! Looks great! Looks like you could possibly use some sway bar bushings. I recently did mine in my Stepside with some from Energy Suspension. They didn't have a part number specifically for mine, but I was able to measure the bar and find some that way.

[@1RoadGarage]

Thanks!

[@youtuber9227]

Can we use tube used in tyres ?

[@craigc6626]

I believe the original splash guard material is used for fire proofing so it does not catch on fire. You should try to burn the original one and try to burn the new ones see which one holds the flame.

[@1RoadGarage]

Good idea. I was a little bit worried due to the proximity to the exhaust manifold but really does it get that hot??!!

[@TOMAS-lh4er]

IT is different ! I got mine online and they were made out of the original material !

[@craigc6626]

@@1RoadGarage Don't think so but I believe that is why they used that material. Flame test ! Lol

HI ! " FYI " I bought the exact replacement splash guards for my 1993 Siera from "LNC" truck parts . com !! AND!! Jimmy, there are 2 other smaller guards that go up in the fender area besides that big one . in case someone can't make their own like you are . That company , Jimmy ,has a catalog that you really should get !! they have one that covers only that years of trucks 88 to 98 ! chevy . the number of parts is impressive , P.S. If anyone does get the catalog to order those guards , be sure you order the right ones for the "Gross weight " on 3/4 ton trks. The big shield s are $16.95 ea. !

[@scottishprepper8835]

Hey Jimmy I have a 99 Yukon that really needs shocks but I cannot decide what kind to get. Do you have any suggestions?

[@1RoadGarage]

I always go to Bilstein. They are the factory standard for many manufacturers. Bilstein 4600 (yellow and blue)

[@FredTheLutinoCocatiel]

Will this stuff make good mud flaps?

Exactly what I was thinking!!??

looking to make my own, factory replacement cost way to much, plus its missing, which is not good for all the rain we been having ,water getting on the belt and wires, and everything else.

[@probeteam9936]

Excellent...

[@alextrigger5222]

1Road. Are you in the Spokane, was area?

[@michaelvalone907]

Jim, I asked you on the motorkote video if you are still happy with it's performance, but I guess you never answered me. I have heard some rumors that it causes sludge to develope in the engine. So, I am looking for your expert opinion since it's been some time now since you have added it into your engine. Do you still have a favorable opinion of the use of motorkote in the engine? Thanks!! Mike Valone

[@1RoadGarage]

I can't really comment on that. I haven't been using it all that much. Not because I don't like it or anything like that I still think it's amazing (based off what I've seen online) but more so just because I lazily have not repurchased it in a while. I would watch the videos from Project Farm. when I did buy a few bottles I did put it in everywhere from my power steering to my oil crankcase and also my gas tank. In my limited use I've had no problems whatsoever. Hope that helps!

I missed that one !! Id like to know also .

The original material is fire retardant. Your new material is NOT. Everyone should be aware of this fact.

[@Milkmans_Son]

First, fire retardants are used to put out fires. Second, the old material is called masticated rubber, and it's not in the least bit fire resistant.

[@xushenxin]
