Ram 1500 Mud Flaps: Front, Rear and Which Set Fits Your Truck
Share
This guide is for Ram 1500 owners choosing mud flaps: front, rear or both, and which set matches the truck in your driveway. The decision turns on three things the product titles spell out: your model years, whether the truck has factory fender flares, and whether it has been leveled.
What to check first on your Ram 1500
- Model years and model name. The sets below split into two groups: 2009-2018 trucks (badged Dodge Ram 1500 for 2009-2010) together with the 2019-2024 Ram 1500 Classic, and the Ram 1500 from 2019 on. From 2019 the titles list the Ram 1500 and the Ram 1500 Classic separately, so buy the set whose title names your model.
- Factory fender flares. Several Air Hawk titles say "with Factory Flares" or "Without Factory Flares". Look at your wheel openings before you order.
- Front, rear or both. Most sets here cover one axle, and the title says Front or Rear.
- Ride height and cab. One Cloud-Rider rear set is made for a truck with a 2" leveling kit, and one Cloud-Rider front set names the Crew Cab.
What mud flaps do, and the choices
A mud flap hangs behind a wheel to catch water, mud, stones and road spray thrown off the tire, keeping it off the truck's body and away from vehicles behind. Through a Canadian winter that spray is slush and road salt, so flaps on all four wheels keep more of it off your rocker panels. The choices in this guide come down to finish and style: Air Hawk's Carbon Black or stainless sets, Cloud-Rider's flaps with a stainless or black plate and Ram logo, and Husky Liners' molded thermoplastic guards.
2019 and newer Ram 1500
- Air Hawk Stainless Steel Custom Fit Front Mud Flaps - 19-24 Ram 1500: a front set in stainless steel for the 2019-2024 Ram 1500.
- Air Hawk Carbon Black Custom Fit Rear Mud Flaps - 19-24 Ram 1500: the rear set in the black finish for the same trucks. Pair it with a front set for full coverage.
- Cloud-Rider Rear Mud Flaps with Stainless Plate & Ram Logo, 19-26 Ram 1500 with 2" Leveling Kit: Cloud-Rider makes this rear set for the 19-26 Ram 1500 fitted with a 2" leveling kit. A leveling kit raises the front of the truck to reduce the factory nose-down stance. If your truck is at factory height, this is not the set the title describes. Our Ram 1500 leveling kit guide covers that upgrade.
2009-2018 Ram 1500 and 2019-2024 Ram 1500 Classic
- Air Hawk Carbon Black Custom Fit Front Mud Flaps - 09-18 Dodge Ram 1500 Without Factory Flares: a black front set for 2009-2018 trucks without factory flares. This title does not name the Classic.
- Air Hawk Carbon Black Rear Mud Flaps - 09-18 Dodge Ram 1500 / 19-24 Classic Without Factory Flares: the matching rear set, and its title adds the 2019-2024 Classic.
- Air Hawk Stainless Front Mud Flaps - 09-18 Dodge Ram 1500 / 19-24 Classic with Factory Flares: a stainless front set for trucks that do have factory flares.
- Cloud-Rider Custom Fit Kickback Front Mud Flaps with Stainless Insert - 09-18 Dodge Ram 1500 Crew Cab: a front set with a stainless insert, titled for the Crew Cab.
2025-2026 Ram 1500
- Husky Liners Custom Mud Guards, Front and Rear Set, 2025-2026 Ram 1500 (59616): one set for both axles. Husky Liners custom-molds these guards from impact-resistant, all-weather thermoplastic and shapes them to follow the fenders.

FAQ
Do I need front and rear mud flaps on my Ram 1500?
Most sets in this guide cover one axle, and the title says Front or Rear. The Husky Liners 59616 set for the 2025-2026 Ram 1500 is the exception: it is a front and rear set. For all four wheels, order a front set and a rear set listed for your model years.
How do I know if my Ram 1500 has factory fender flares?
Fender flares are trim pieces that extend the wheel openings outward. Look at your wheel arches, or check the original build sheet if you have it. Air Hawk lists separate sets for trucks with and without factory flares, so order the one whose title matches your truck.
Will a 2019-2024 Ram 1500 set fit a Ram 1500 Classic?
Only if the title names the Classic. The Air Hawk 19-24 Ram 1500 sets name the Ram 1500 alone; the sets that also name the 19-24 Classic are the ones for that truck. The vehicle selector and the fitment table on each product page settle it.
My Ram 1500 has a leveling kit. Which rear flaps do I need?
The Cloud-Rider rear set with the stainless plate and Ram logo is titled for the 19-26 Ram 1500 with a 2" leveling kit. If your truck sits at a different height, check the product page before you order.
