Fender Gunk

Hey Ladies and Gents,
Just a reminder to clean out and flush the crud from your lower fender ‘drain areas’ Gave my newly acquired truck a thorough cleaning to find this. Get them hands dirty!

 

Good info. I've had my truck just over a year, but I've never checked.... I am afraid. Question, did the cover piece/seal go back into place easily? Is it something that is going to get loose and wear out over time?

@Ckatz53 is this something you do when detailing? If it's not too time consuming it is one more thing you could do to set your business apart. Just a thought.

 

Adam it’s just a thick rubber flap that you can pull back. It pops right back into place. After scooping out as much big crud by hand or shop vac blast it out with the hose for a bit. Here in the NE we have lots of good tree whirligigs and leaves that make their way down there to gather salty road slush over the winter. Pop that rubber flap back on when you’re done no hassle.

 

Yeah I always check seals. Tundras are pretty bad with them though. Other vehicles not so much.

 

Funnels down from up top and doesnt wash out very easy.
