Reciever Hitch Rock Gaurd to protect boat.


fishing4fun

Question

I'm looking for some sort of rock protector that I can add to my reciever hitch to protect the our boat. I've found a couple, but what can you guys recommened, the solid rubber or cut rubber, or the hairy looking ones? Where also do I find them. I've seen them in Cabelas. Any info would be great.

Thanks

I bought the Tow-tector brand last spring befor a trip into the canadian gravel scene with my silverado and 1890 warrior in tow. You can order direct from the factory and they will ship direct to you. This brand works for me!

I bought the Gravel Guard brand it has 2 big rubber rock/mud flaps instead of the wisker style. I ordered it at shade tree sports, it was around $150 shipped to my door. I will not pull my inclosed trailer or my boat without one anymore. These are a great investment.

I'm very happy so far with my Road Wings (solid rubber) flaps. Easy on, easy off, easy to assemble. Very solid thus far. Got em at Cabela's.

Definately go with a brush type protector, either Tow Tector or KWIK PFYT. From what I have seen personally and have been told, is that they do much better at stopping and or slowing down rocks and debris as they get kicked up from your tires. With the solid rubber flaps, the rocks or what have you have more tendecy to get kicked up and then bounced back down to the ground, where they can escape and still hit the boat at a speed that can chip the paint.

I was impressed with the KWIK PFYT and have one coming.

Bought a KWIK PFYT a few years back. Best thing I ever did. I know when I bought it they said that it will cause less drag then the rubber ones which equals less gas used. Also it will not bend like the cheaper angle iron versions that you see at most places for sale. It will however cost a little more but well worth it in the long run.
