I just installed my new rancho 5000 shocks today and while trying to pull the liner off it tore in half. the passenger side has been off for a while now and i need to keep the water and other road grime out. i have seen replacements once while searching but cant seem to find them again. does anyone know where to get them or at least what they would be called i dont know if im wording it right, thanksss

If you cant find them hit your local J/Y. Mine charges like $20 for all the trim and liner pieces such as that as I can carry.

Splash shields is what they are called I think

Dealers carry them but they are expensive at least around here. eXcali has the easiest solution but you can make them if you can find some useable material.

Mine ripped too when I was putting plugs in last week....search a while and could not find anything.

What worked was to lay the two pieces on the wokr bench, drilled small holes in each piece and use zip ties to sinch them back together....

Pretty??? no......functional, YES!! :roll::roll::roll:

My old Sport Trac came with the half-liners, which I replaced with the full-size since I did off-road it. Cost at the dealer was about $15 each as I recall. Got the extra buttons to hold them in at Auto Zone.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but does anyone know a source for replacement wheel well liners? I tried ################## as well as motorcraft's web site, but found no joy in either place.

BTW, why is the forum's software blanking out a---partswareh-use? Is that company verboten to mention or something around here?

Allowing easier access for salty snow slush to get on your manifolds not only allows them to rust and weaken faster, but also strains them from having more cold snow hitting really hot metal. And we are all well aware of the exhaust manifolds being prone to cracking as it is...

Half-****ed: No problem. I ended up calling a dealer to find out what to call them when I was looking - name is certainly not "intuitively obvious to the most casual observer."

I recently tore the wheel well liner that covers up the top shock mount- the flexible one. My solution- drill some small holes through it and through the hard plastic wheel well liner behind it, put in some short screws with large washers.

Fixed and still easily removable in the future.
