## Overview

The LUVERNE 255300 Tow Guard is a 72-inch wide, hitch-mounted mud flap system designed for 2" to 3" ball mounts. Made from durable 3/8" recycled textured rubber and powder-coated steel, it offers full-width protection against road debris while allowing easy installation and removal. Fully assembled and customizable with trim-to-fit flaps, it’s engineered to keep your trailer looking pristine on every journey.

## Description

Your trailer takes plenty of wear and tear on the road without the scuffs, scratches and dents made by loose debris. The truth, however, is that this debris can quickly become a bombardment of damage that is otherwise easily preventable. The LUVERNE Textured Rubber Tow Guard is a simple trailer hitch attachment that provides a reliable barrier between your tow vehicle and trailer. The Tow Guard acts very much like a set of heavy-duty mud flaps. Only instead of merely covering your rear tires, it serves as a full-width wall at the rear of the vehicle, providing superior protection for the trailer. Also, unlike most mud flaps that are designed for permanent installation, the Tow Guard can conveniently be installed or removed as necessary, using a heavy-duty clamp system. This Tow Guard model attaches to virtually any 2" to 3" ball mount shank and maintains full use of your trailer hitch and any electrical components. The LUVERNE Tow Guard is constructed with a strong steel 26304560 and heavy-duty recycled rubber flaps. The steel 26304560 is covered in a highly durable textured black powder coat finish to protect it against scratches, chipping and rust, and the rubber flaps are made from a tough 3/8" thick textured rubber. Installing the Textured Rubber Tow Guard is as simple as bolting it onto a ball mount and mounting it on your receiver hitch. It attaches to the ball mount shank with a clamp mechanism and features cutouts in the steel 26304560 for dual exhaust and for the trailer wiring connection. The Tow Guard is available in a universal width of 72" to fit most full-size pickups and SUVs and in two flap length options, including 15" and 20". When selecting the right length for your vehicle, we recommend a minimum gap of 4" when loaded and a maximum gap of 7" when unloaded. The Tow Guard comes fully factory-assembled and can easily be trimmed for a fully custom fit.

Review: Great design. Hardware needs some work. - Didn't think I would need the heat shield and cooked one of the flaps on the first 25 mile trip. Replaced the flaps with some stall mats from Tractor Supply. Also made my own heat shield from an old aluminum airbake cookie sheet. Works great. Recommend you switch out the bolts that clamp to your hitch shank. Once they got hot, their wasn't any loosening them and had to cut them off. Replaced with quality stainless steel from hardware store.
Review: Looks cool, fitment sucks, it drags, and will not cinch up tight - The flaps are less than 1” from the ground with zero weight in the truck. Once an empty trailer is hooked up, they drag on the ground. The flaps are about 3” short on either side so whatever my tires kick up at the trailer will still hit. The bracket that “clamps” down on the hitch will bend before it’s tight so the whole unit just flops around and bounces off the bumper. I’m going to fabricate a new bracket to hopefully resolve that issue. I used small bungees to get it to sit still. For the price, get some real rock tamers. These are not worth the price.

## Features

- USE AS NEEDED. These hitch-mounted mud flaps are the ultimate in towing convenience. Just mount them onto your trailer hitch ball mount whenever needed, and take them off when you don't. Protecting your trailer while towing couldn't be easier!
- FULL-WIDTH BARRIER. These towing mud flaps create a barrier along the back of the vehicle that spans the full width. This ensures excellent protection for trailer against stones, road debris and other damaging threats.
- HIGHLY DURABLE. Constructed from 3/8-inch recycled rubber, this trailer rock guard is built to withstand tough jobs. The textured surface of the mud flaps also helps hide scuffs, scratches and grime, maintaining a cleaner look.

- VERSATILE. These hitch mud flaps are designed to be as universal as possible. They easily clamp onto any 2-inch, 2-1/2-inch or 3-inch trailer hitch ball mount shank. The 72-inch width fits most full-size pickup trucks and SUVs, and they can also be used as RV mud flaps. The 20-inch long flaps can be trimmed for a custom fit if needed.
- Fit Type: Universal Fit

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Is good but needs help
*by R***D on May 28, 2022*

I use it on my f350, for hot shot, from cars to boats. I had to cut to opening bigger for the hitches on these new trucks, the metal used will need reinforcing in spots, could use an added on pies so it can be widend out if needed, for the price it should be higher quality of steal and engineered better, it will work until I make a better one.
