Ok,
I got a set of MOPAR 8221 5332 AC Splash Guards from the dealer and they do not fit my High Altitude. A search says it will fit but they are clearly way too skinny. I.E. they do not fit to the edge.

MOPAR siter says they fit Rubicon, HA and Mojave but no way do they fit my HA, not even close.

I assume because they are the wide fenders due to the wide axles.

Now looking at this video

he says at about 15 seconds does not fit Rubicon.

SO, what is the correct part number for the Wide flares?

Okay, so now I'll have to go check on mine. I bought a set of the front and rear splash guards for my Overland in 2019. I never got them installed and traded the Overland for a High Altitude in February. I was planning to install them at some point. I may have to sell them and get some Weathertechs.

Do the holes line up to install them, and will they sit flat? The wider fender flares for the wide axles will probably keep them from going to the edge like on the other models.

I'm going to try and pull mine out today and see how they fit. I've got to go out of town for work so it may not be until Thursday or Friday.

Maybe a bit hard to explain, i should have taken a picture but,

The flap is molded to the truck shape. So to speak.

If you are looking inside the drivers wheel well, the flare matches up with the fender liner on the inside bottom towards the engine, but is way short of reaching the fender flare, so not wide enough to fit out to the edge of the flare

I understand what you mean. I'll have to check and see what the part numbers are on mine. I will probably have the same problem.

Think mine from years back were made universal for all the trims. There was an edge lip that molded to the fender when it was lined up, so a screw and then a tree clip was on the edge of the outside of the fender then attached with screw mid top with an extra tree clip someplace, if I remember right for front anyways. The rear attached slightly different with two screws on outside edge. Do the inner screws not line up right? Or are trying to line it up from the inside out instead of the outside in?

Inside seemed to line up ok but, looking at that left picture where that splash guard is on the right side...mine was still in the wheel well and not to the edge

Mine is a sport so the narrower flares, btw. So yeah that sounds like your first thought that even though it's claimed to work with the high altitude they really don't.

I bought mine new in July of 2019. It's a Rubicon. I've always been a big fan of splash guards and I try and put them on all my cars and trucks. At that time, Mopar didn't make any that fit the Rubicon (there was no High Altitude trim or Mojave then). I went with Rokblokz and I couldn't be happier. They don't conform to the fender lines, but I think they give the Jeep a Land Rover flavor and they are excellent at doing their job. They're also easily removed for wheeling.

The dealer took them back and I ordered a set of WeatherTechs. Will report back once installed.

Thank you all.

Yea I always try to buy OE, but in the case of mud flaps I’ve been sticking with WeaterTech on all my vehicles, yes in some instances they might lack a little coverage, but with the adhesives today and some light weight pieces of flat thin polyurethane I have added a bit in length and width with no issues after years of service and car washers.

We are sorry but at this time there are still no splash guards available for wide flare models such as the Rubicon, HA or Mojave.

- Benny
Benny, I'm still searching for splash guards that fit my Gladiator High Altitude. Have already returned a pair from Extreme Terrain and a Mopar set I bought from Ebay that were advertised to fit the HA. Can you provide a Mopar part number for the correct part?
Thank you!
