A liberal application of duct tape perhaps?

Nope, fender flares don't help. Got em and get just as much mud! The engineer who designed them sure didn't do any off raoding.

I have seen people tape the rear doors when they were going mudding. Not sure how well it worked but try it and tell us.

I just deal with it and then use a power washer on the door jams afterwards. No real harm done because mud does not go inside truck and you can be real carefull when using the power washer and you won't get water inside when cleaning if you take your time.

You can''t it''s one of those things you learn to live with and expect to be doing everytime you wash your truck.

Best bet would be to stay home.....lol. In all honesty, they aren''t going to stay clean. I pressure wash mine when needed. It is a PITA, but it gets done weekly.
