Front Mud Flaps for 97 Sport

[knightmoves1]

I am having a very difficult time locating these from Ford. My 97 Sport has running boards, and Ford Parts says that the running boards for that model have been discontinued. Worse, the discontinued part number that Ford said would work, (F5TZ-16A550-F Explr 95 FRT 2DR SPRT GD KT) doesn't fit. They sent me to another dealer who had the discontinued part in stock.

At this point I'm scratching my head, and willing to buy an aftermarket part. Anyone running front mud flaps on a 97 Sport ? Any ideas ?

Alec,

Thanks for the offer. The Dealer told me that since I have running boards, I need a different type of mud flap than what you have. Seems very strange to me that Ford can't provide parts for my X. The dealer asked me to call back tomorrow. I'll let you know.

Thanks again.

I got some from my local Ziebart/Maxi Muffler outlet. They have all sizes and they install them.
