  3. What is the size of the Fast Flap Mounting Bracket? 30.25 in. in length – with 4 holes at 7 in on center lengths designed to easily bolt on Minimizer Fast Flaps.
  4. What is the Fast Flap Mounting Bracket made out of? C-Channel powder coated carbon steel – with a welded mounting tab that allows it to easily bolt to your truck frame.
  5. Does the Fast Flap Mounting Bracket come with conspicuity tape?  Yes the kit will include conspicuity tape sections; they are included with the Fast Flap (Part# 101227).
  6. What is the Fast Flap?  Fast Flap is a heat tempered stainless spring steel clamp that allows mud flaps to release free from brackets without damaging flaps, fenders or hanger brackets.  Think of it as a large clamp.  You simply bolt the Fast Flap to the Fast Flap Mounting Bracket and insert your mud flaps into the Fast Flap clamp.  No more tearing off flaps.
  7. What is the purpose of your Minimizer Fast Flap?  It’s simple. Tired of having flaps get torn off, or hefty fines for not having one on?  Or maybe you’re sick of paying high labor rates to re-install flap hangers, or flaps themselves.  The flap will release damage free from the Fast Flap when backing up into any type of obstruction which causes the mud flap to be pinched against the rear tire.  With our Fast Flap, the driver can quickly re-install their mud flap, preventing expensive fines for driving without one (illegal in all 50 states, by the way) and costly down time if you were to tear one off and didn’t have a mud flap on.
  8. Do you need to bolt the Fast Flap to the Fast Flap Mounting Bracket?  No – but it is recommended that you always use the Fast Flap with the Fast Flap Mounting Bracket.  You can use the Fast Flap Mounting Bracket to hang any standard 24in. wide mud flap in conjunction with Minimizer Fast Flap, and turn your tractor or trailer into a vehicle that will no longer damage your mud flaps.  That’s the way we would like to see it, we #RespectTheDriver.
  9. Is the Fast Flap Mounting Bracket spring loaded?  It is not. It is standard C-channel carbon steel welded to a flange that bolts to the side of a frame rail or other application on the rear of a truck or trailer.  The Fast Flap Mounting Bracket is not spring loaded, and we recommend only using it in conjunction with our Minimizer Fast Flap, part# 101227.
  10. Do you need the Fast Flap Mounting Bracket to mount the Fast Flap? No, this is not required to mount the Fast Flap.  The Fast Flap Mounting Bracket is an extension piece if you can’t mount the Fast Flap to the back of your Truck or Trailer.  The Minimizer Fast Flap can be purchased individually through one of our Minimizer Distributors.  Part# 101227 is the Fast Flap kit only.
  11. It says that your Fast Flaps have a pull force of over 500 lbs. Would the Fast Flap Mounting Bracket be able to take that much pull force?  Yes, we’ve actually tested it to over 800 lbs.  Unfortunately if you were just using mud flaps, you’re likely to tear your flaps before the bracket would bend.  This is why our Minimizer Fast Flaps work great in addition to the Fast Flap Mounting Bracket. Prevent those costly mistakes from occurring time after time and get yours today.
  12. Is the Fast Flap Mounting Bracket difficult to install?  No, it is designed to bolt into your existing frame bolt holes where your flap hangers would mount.  If you’re bolting into something else, a hole will need to be drilled prior to installing our Fast Flap Mounting Bracket. Simply follow our provided instructions and use the frame tab as a guide and drill holes according to the mounting specifications.
  13. Are the Fast Flaps hard to install?  No – we’ve installed them on a lot of different makes and model trucks and trailers out there, in all forms of industry applications.  We’d bet you could have your set on in under an hour. Probably even quicker than that. Take the challenge. We’d love to hear the feedback.
  14. What is the lead time on the Fast Flap Mounting Bracket?  We keep a large stock of Minimizer Fast Flap Mounting Brackets in house. Our turnaround times are very short, some of the best in the industry.  Depending on the shippable location, we can generally have the Fast Flap Mounting Bracket out to you within 4 business days.  Your best bet is to find a preferred Minimizer stocking distributor.  Contact us today at 800-248-3855 to find your nearest distributor.
  15. Are individual pieces sold separately?  If damaged and it is deemed to be a warranty-related issue, then Minimizer will replace any piece for you.  If you just so happened to have an accident, hey, we know, accidents are possible, then yes.  Please contact us or one of our distributors with a description of the piece you’re looking to replace and we will have individual components available.
