Mark3101, You will sandblast the front of your towed car more with the full length mudflap than you will with none. The Blue Ox shield (towbar monted) will do great things to prevent car front end destruction. We ahve even towd with a sheild and full length mudflap and the flap kicks stones up and makes them ricochet off the towshield and shoots them at the coach's engine compartment doors. Make a rear mess.
We have towed with coaches with full flap and no flap other than what is behind each rear tire from Prevost. Never again will be have a coach with a full rearend mudflat stone thrower.
best reommendation, add Blue Ox towshield, but never use the full length rear under bumper logo adorned mudflap. its just cheap advertizing for the coach comparny and complete pulverization ot your car's front.
One trip to Alaska with rearflap, peppered Jeep. Another trip we went to Yellowknife NWT, where the last 42 miles into the capital is dirt, no coach flap, added Blue Ox shield on 1999 Range Rover, all rover glass survived unbroken, and no paint chips, lots fo dust..
