An apparatus and method for moving the mud flaps mounted on a truck from their normal planar operating position behind the truck's rear tires to a protected position engaging the rear tires. The mud flaps are connected to a mounting member movably connected to the underside of the truck and fixed to the mud flaps to cause the mud flaps to move from a normal operating position and into a generally U-shaped configuration engaging a rear tire. Further, with the mud flaps in the generally U-shaped configuration, selectively causing rotation of the rear tires in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction effectively causes the mud flap to be drawn over the rear tire between positions resting on a forward or rearward facing side of the tire.
