My bad. Apparently I couldn’t read the email directly back from the vendor. Would you like the order email with comments section verifying I didn’t need cut outs and the exhaust wouldn’t be an issue like the original poster also noticed?
You rails look like rubicon rails are the the same or different on the Willy ?

If the email from your vendor states you don't have Rubicon Rock Rails when you know you do, maybe it's time to exercise some personal discretion. Short of that, I'd take that email, shove it back in their faces, and ask for the right flaps.

Personally, they fucked my order up 7 ways from Sunday. They sent me non-cut flaps with bronco brackets and hardware (order very clearly states gladiator, even their packing slip said gladiator). But when I contacted them about their mistake they fixed it very quickly.

1. They did absolutely give me bad info, and I made product work as my time to work on the Jeep is limited. It’s my first Jeep ever and I couldn’t tell you what rails are on it, so I guess I’ll trust the vendor that countless others on this forum have recommended, again, my bad.

2. I simply posted the email to let a complete stranger know they were pretty presumptuous about what the vendor did or didn’t do with absolutely zero knowledge of said fact.

3. Also just letting OP know the rear flaps will work with OEM diesel exhaust. Which is another correction to the vendor’s site/knowledge base apparently needed as well.

If you truly are Kreskin, please post good stock tips instead of assumptions moving forward. The group would be much more appreciative.

I’d have to grab the window sticker and see what it’s saying. This is my first Jeep of any kind and the rails were just on it as part of the package.

Given you need about 2” of play to stick the rails through to get the flaps to mounts correctly, I’d go on assumption they are the Rubi rails. Worst thing that would happen is you’d have to just trim a little bit from factory scored section versus trying to cut holes from scratch using mid air guess work and a sharpie.?

I'm good, you rails just looked like what was oem on my rubicon. Just trying to figure out why they told you to order without the holes.... I have aftermarket rails, but I sent in pictures. funny though, they told me due to my lift to order the XL-long and your email, kinda reads like its saying I should have ordered XL-Regular..... I've owned them for my last car and ordering the size was not an option... hopefully it works out or I will be headed to my local truck stop and cutting custom ones and using their hardware... not paying another $250... lol

Regular/original/standard whatever you call it size. 2022 Rubicon.

Fits without trimming and what I would consider ample room, with the bracket adjusted fully outward.

If you wanted the flaps tucked in closer, to use the full range of adjust-ability, you'd have to trim the flap material. Wouldn't be too tough of a task.

I ordered mine due to the absolute pounding my door hinges were taking. The paint chipping is pretty bad without them on my Gladiator.

Should have ordered them way sooner.

Is everyone thinking that this brand provides the best option? WeatherTech offers a set also. Anyone know of any others worth a try?

I've used the Rokblokz brand on several vehicles, very well know in the tuner/performance world. IMO, they are the best in quality, function and looks. It hard to make mud flaps look sexy and blend in with the vehicle, but I think they do it well. A couple pics with them installed on my car. I have Not installed them on the Gladiator yet.

Dang they were fast. I just ordered last night and they have shipped out and I didn't get any kind of express shipping or anything. Well that will be my next jeep project once they come in.
