** Any of you Suburban guy's {or anyone else that might know} have any idea what gravel shields from other make or models of vehicles would fit the rear fenders on a 53 Suburban just behind the running boards?? Any help appreciated.

Do you get gravel hitting the rear fenders above the end of the running boards?

** No problems yet with gravel hitting the rear fenders, the Suburban is not on the road yet, still in the body & paint shop. I live on a private road that is gravel. Guess you might say just planning ahead. Have seen pictures of a Suburban with gravel shields and was wondering where they might have came from as I don't think GM ever offered them as an option on Suburban's.

On a side note I am going to put that spray on bedliner heavy duty material inside my fenders front and rear. You can now buy it in quart and gallon sizes and can be rolled or brushed on. That stuff is pretty is thick and should eliminate those annoying "star" cracks on the outside of the fenders from gravel getting hit inside the fenders.
