A fender for a lawn mower having tire and wheel assemblies that are mounted to a yoke of a swivel caster assembly, whereby the yoke pivots through 360 degrees of rotation, includes an arcuate fender body. The fender body is attached to the yoke by a bracket so that it is rotatably carried by the rotating yoke. As such, the fender body is maintained at an optimal position relative to the mower tire and thereby provides desirable deflection of lawn clippings and other debris from the various operational components provided upon the mower deck. This prevents the premature wear of such operational components, thereby decreasing down time and reducing maintenance costs of the mower.

A wheel housing liner assembly that includes a liner supporting bracket. The liner supporting bracket has a first portion, a second portion and a main portion that extends from the first portion to the second portion. The first portion is configured to attach to an inboard panel of a vehicle wheel housing structure. The second portion is configured to attach to a vehicle outboard fender panel. The main portion is configured to attach to a liner within a vehicle wheel housing structure.

A removably attachable fender flare system has an inner flare and an upper flare and a lower flare, which are removably attachable to the inner flare. The upper and lower flare may have traction protrusions to provide traction to free a stuck off-road vehicle. The inner flare may be in direct contact with and coupled to the off-road vehicle, providing a location to secure the upper and lower flares. The upper flare and lower flare may couple to a groove, which runs the length of the inner flare, from front to back. Further, the lower flare may couple to the upper flare, securing the fender flares.

An arrangement (10) in a wheel well (2) of a vehicle (1), comprising at least one passage (11) providing fluid communication between an engine compartment (3) and the wheel well to permit airflow there through, wherein the passage is non-straight in order to prevent ingress of water into the engine compartment. Also disclosed is a vehicle comprising such an arrangement.

A fender flare for attachment to a fender of a vehicle, the fender flare having a flap and a support system operatively connected to the flap to attach the flap to the fender. The support system has a trim having or being capable of adopting a U-shaped configuration. To improve connection to the fender, the support system can have a carrier embedded within the walls of the trim or protrusions projecting from the walls of the trim to facilitate a gripping action of the walls against the fender. Fasteners can also be used to facilitate securement of the support system to the fender. A thinned segment between the trim and the flap can be used to eliminate certain distortions in the fender flare and for efficient packaging. A seal projecting obliquely from the first wall at a top end of the first wall may be used to keep debris out.

A mud flap system is provided comprising a mounting device having a top and bottom including a walled recess extending into an inner volume of the mount and exiting out the bottom. The assembly also includes an elongated suspension bracket having a proximal end to the recess, a distal end defining a length and a thru slot running along the length, a stem extending from a bottom of the bracket at the proximal end, enabled to be inserted into the recess and out of the mounting device. A mud-flap is provided having a top having a thickness and a bottom of the mud flap is inserted through the slot and the thickness at the top suspends the mud flap until force applied to the mud flap causes the thickness at the top to deform and pass through the slot thereby releasing the mud flap from the suspension bracket.

A fender liner structure is disposed in a wheel house of a front wheel of a vehicle. The vehicle includes a sub radiator disposed on a vehicle front side of a fender liner. The fender liner structure includes a liner body portion curving in an arch shape to cover the front wheel from above and a lower wall portion extending to the front of the vehicle from a lower end of the liner body portion on the vehicle front side. The liner body portion includes a first vent hole penetrating a vehicle front side part of the liner body portion. The lower wall portion includes a second vent hole penetrating a vehicle rear side end portion of the lower wall portion in an upper-lower direction. The lower wall portion includes a negative pressure generation part configured to generate a negative pressure under the second vent hole.

A fender flare has a mounting plate portion, a fender portion, and a plurality of strut plates. The mounting plate portion is configured to be mounted to a wheel well of a vehicle body. The plurality of strut plates support the fender portion relative to the mounting plate portion. A step assembly and modular bumper assemblies are also disclosed.

A fender structure for a vehicle includes: a fender panel that is disposed on a lateral surface of a vehicle-body front portion; a reinforcing member that supports the fender panel from the inner side in the vehicle width direction; a first engagement portion that is able to engage with a top end portion of the fender panel; a second engagement portion that is able to engage with a bottom end portion of the fender panel; and a spring portion that biases the first engagement portion and the second engagement portion with an elastic restoring force in the vehicle height direction in which the first engagement portion and the second engagement portion are separated from each other in a state in which the first engagement portion and the second engagement portion engage with the top end portion and the bottom end portion of the fender panel.
