Would mud flaps from a Vanagon (without integrated body moulding) work on a single cab -- front, back, both? If not, what are some options?

Absolutely the same. Fits a Truck fits a van, drill some holes and mount them.

I've had SA mudflaps on my van for over a decade, despite the fact that I have integrated body molding.

If your willing to drill a hole or two in your body you can use generic thick rubber mud flaps.
Here is mine; those plastic wheel wells you can buy from several vendors and some SS sheet metal screws. Lasted almost 2 years so far including winter.
I can probably find a picture of the front if your interested. Lots of cool options out there.
Pics of your single cab? |

Thanks! I may head down that route myself.

Thanks for your suggestion. I'm leaning towards VW mud flaps first as I want to keep my single cab fairly basic and stock-ish. Although I'm not a DIY'er by nature, I did drill holes into my US license plate in order to mount it, so I'm brimming with confidence with drilling.
