I remember waiting for my shrock stubby to arrive, I think I ended up waiting 11 weeks (original eta was 6) but it is so worth it, I love this thing and the compliments I received during its first trail run paid for itself

I'm tempted to get their rear bumper (not a huge priority for me so the wait wouldn't be nearly as strenuous this time...) just need to decide and plunk the money down.

i have the Shrock Stubby and love it, it hides the powerplant as much as it can possible be hidden, looks excellent, and their powdercoating is very very good

I bought the Rugged Ridge front and am happy with it.

Its not as heavy duty as some others but it also cost less and can be changed however you want it.

They do have a rear bumper coming out, but it isnt available yet, and wont be for a few months.

I just put on the Shrock last night, and have a Warn 9.5ti going on tonight. It was easy to install, is very solid and looks great. Got it locally at a dealer, so I had no wait

I also have their rock sliders and am very pleased with them too. All their stuff is very solid and built very well. I don't think you would be surprised.

or you might be able to find it from a local 4x4 shop (I couldn't track one down in my area), the prices range from $484 - $825 (cheapest to most expensive due to the different features available) for the stubby and $555 - $965 for the mid width.

Dang. I wish I had all that jack. I found one for 169. That'll have to do for me.

I, agree, I haven't seen a stubby that I like better than Shrockworks. Hope their rear bumper looks great, too.

What tires are on that yellow jeep?

Jeeperman's out of business, but these guys still got their stubby in stock at a killer price if you're interested.
