Hi brains trust. Outback dual axle 2015 20.64-1 and I'm getting stone damage to the rear undercarriage of the van on unsealed roads. Mostly to the back of the rear bumper, wood base of floor and 3rd water tank. I have a stone Stomper up front and that is amazing at protecting all up to van wheels, but looking for help at the back.
Wheels are original size, as are mud flaps. We're about to do the great central road Perth to Darwin and a bit of the Gibb so want to get something sorted.
I have some left over heavy duty shade cloth that's enough to fold into 4 layers to act as a full length stone flap behind the rear wheels (but not close enough to touch them when reversing) - thinking of putting a weight along the bottom and metal wire stitch the lot, mount behind the 2nd water tank going around 400mm from the van base (similar to mud flaps). Thoughts on this or other solutions?
