WADE wind deflector...

Looks like a great idea.... You can only use it if you DONT use a top (hard top or soft top)

I emailed to company 3 times and not one reply of any sort!

$50 dollar piece of useless lexan.....

Sorry for flaming my RockHard bumper, i should have handle my issue with RockHard themselves or Dave from Northbridge instead of posting in this thread first. Dave and Rockhard have been very understanding in this matter and have done everything to make me feel better about my purchase. Both companies. Customer service is A+ outstanding. Rockhard bumpers are built very strong and my only problem from the bumper was the powdercoating finish which was probably just a fluke and doesnt happen often. Talking with Dave its nothing against Rockhard they sub out the powdercoating. Sometimes its hard not to get pissed and point the finger when hard earned money is spend. But like i said earlier i should have handled it different and i am sorry to Dave from Northbridge and RockHard. I will be buying a front bumper from Rockhard and Dave and i am sure it will be built everything will be just fine Being how Dave's customer service was so good he will be getting my business from now on

I wasn't super happy w/ the vibrations in my Warrior Products mirror relo brackets but they swapped them out for me w/ a newer version and now they're A1. Good people over there.

Full Traction front track bar. The bend is too small to clear my Riddler diff cover.

Rockcrusher (Solid) diff covers.....too big and bulky and didnt clear RE or FT track bars and they are a pain in the A$$ to put oil in.
Riddlers are much better covers, they're smooth with no lip to catch on rocks and the oil fill is angled up for easier filling

Rubicon Express 3.5" Superflex lift kit....great kit, but less then a year later I sold it all for a loss and bought the RE 4.5" Long arm kit.
Im MUCH happier now though

I also regret not selling my stock soft top when it was new
I cant stand the stock top and which I had the ORH top or a bikini top instead.
I have the duster now and love it.
