Wrong Husky Mud Guards From AMAZON for 2014 Express Quad

[v10enomous]

I ordered front and rear Husky mud guards from Amazon over a month ago from 2 different sellers because of inventory at the time. So today I went to install them and the profile fits but the holes don't line up. I looked at the boxes from 2 different sellers and they both say for Full size trucks with OEM flares. Because more than a month has passed I can't return them. I am not going to drill new holes.

Anyone else have this problem or can explain the differences between what I got and what I need ?

Thanks

I put the exact same ones on my 2014 Laramie and they fit perfect. The 58181 are for the front and I just had to remove and re-install two of the flare screws.. holes lined up fine. The 57161 are for the rear. Again, I had to remove and re-install two of the flare screws and then drill a hole in the plastic wheel-well liner for a 3rd screw. They were very easy to install, took about 30 min.

I just looked at your post title... did your 14 Express come with OEM flares?

So your Laramie has the OEM flares ?

Yes it does

Ram Man nailed it. The Express models don't have flares.
You need #57151 and #58171

amazon will take them back if it took that long to get them to you as opposed to you having them for a month before deciding to install them, they may exchange them anyway even if you did wait. If delivery was delayed then tracking info will help your case but in my experience amazon is the walmart of the internet. Just open a support chat session and ask.

A friend of a friend of mine just got a new Laramie so i'm seeing if he can use them. The one set is still returnable but the one that came directly from Amazon LLC is not but if I can't get rid of them locally, I'll open a case with amazon. It will probably be at least $15 to ship them back. It's really no big deal and just more of a hassle than anything.

I went back and looked at the Amazon fit checker and while it says they fit my stored vehicle it also says that they fit trucks with OEM flares in the small text description. I don't recall looking at the text because it said they fit. Had I read it I may have concluded that it also fit with OEM flares rather than only fits with flares. Lesson learned.
