Does anyone know if and where you can get tie backs or chains for mudflaps? Been hunting around and can't find them anywhere. I no lorry's use them but can't even find those ones......
Any ideas?

DIY stores?
I don't think the ones trucks use are anything special, just a nut & bolt and very big washer on the flap itself and a hook on the truck, plus some lightweight chain.
Are you thinking of fitting oversize flaps then, cos the standard ones are probably a bit inflexible for tie backs

These were home made: 6mm reinforced rubber, some B&Q chain, hose clips and a M6 fixing:
Maybe not quite what you are looking for, but may spark some ideas.

No just normal sized mudflaps but I no if I take them off they won't be going back on lol. Home made seems to be the best option 
thank you all for the advice
