hi new enkay users and others......
installed on a 4x4 superduty with hensley and
4 inch drop as reference point...
i shortened the nk's by 6 inches at install
this gives me about 1-2 inches of clearance which fully hitched
and 3-4 inches when not
of course this clearance could be reduced by lowering the nk swing arms...
another nice feature of the product...
i occasionally drag when going over undulations while parking the trailer,
or on sharper turns that also involve dips.
at highway speeds the 1-2 inches of clearance becomes 2-3...
because of the very slight lift on the flaps at 65-70 mph...
also have aftermarket mudflaps right at the wheel wells
for adjustments i went out on a wet country road
and watched the mud fly.......
adjusting the flaps to reduce any 'spray' onto the trailer
above the segment protectors,
like onto the clear rock guards or upper curved segments.....
thats right mub will fly high!
even with lots of tweaking it's not perfect protection
my main goal with the nk's
is to keep the
rocks/gravel that get stuck in tires
while driving around rv parks and so on.....
from banging up the trailer
when it flys out like bullets from a gatlin gun,
at highway speeds...
they also keep the mudflap critters at bay.....
as witnessed here......

it's one thing to clean road grime and tar from the shinny skin....
but another thing entirely removing animal parts.....
