Picking Between Heat Shield and Grille Outlets for Rock Tamers Mud Flaps
Question:
i have a RAM 1400 4WD with dual rear exhaust. so the problem would be of course heatinch from the dual exhaust pipes and the melting of the material of the rock guard i will purchase from you. My question since 90 of the time I would have the mud flaps my truck would be traveling, not sitting there idling. So the two options I can purchase with the rock guard you sell is the Exhaust Outlet grills or the Heat Shields. I just want to purchase what you think is best with this information. Im leaning towards the Exhaust Outlets if they would preform well with what Ive told you, but your opinion matters because you deal with the equipment and circumstances and conditions that this equipment is put through. Thanks for your time.

If the exhaust pipes are straight back and very close to the Rock Tamers mud flaps part # ERT00108 I'd recommend the grilles part # ERT200 but if they are angled or there's a decent distance the shield # RT76FR is the way to go.
