To each of the respective pins is pin-connected a flexible but stretchable bar. The lower end of each non-stretchable bar has a vertically disposed elongated slot through which extends a support pin for the mud flap. Each support pin snugly passes through a hole formed along the upper edge of the mud flap and also snugly passes through a suitable hole formed on the lower end of the stretchable bar. The length of each stretchable bar in such that, under normal conditions with only the weight of the mud flap being supported by the support pin and, in turn, by the stretchable bars, the support pin is disposed adajcent the upper end of the elongated slot.
