Default Just pulled trigger on this bumper

I just bought this, did it spur of moment, it is a Rockhard shorty, what is everyone's experience with them..... Maybe should have done this before I hit pay. . Hopefully you can reassure me it was a good purchase and is not going to fall apart

Probably a good idea to ask beforehand, but at least if you get bad reviews you can start saving now and resell a new unused Rockhard shorty. Lol.... looks sweet though

I have both my rear and front bumper made by them. They're a local shop and they actually do great work! For the price it's quality stuff, two year warranty, and well constructed.

Certainly not the best out there, but I'm really happy with both of them!

Naw man I'm just kidding. Unfortunately I have no real experience nor have read about this bumper before. It does look cool though, thumbs up for appearance!

*keep in mind you ordered a "rock hard fabs" bumper, not to be confused by "rock hard". Totally different company

Rock Hard products are stout. I really use their skid plates and have seen there front & rear bumpers in person.

You don't have to worry.... You'll like the construction & quality, if not call Rock Hard & the owner will make it right. The neat thing about this bumper is that you can buy tow bar adapters that bolt under the tow clevis points.

The only reason I'm considering other bumpers is to save weight, as Rock Hard bumpers are built with a lot of steel...

Haha there is going to be a lot of confusion in this thread. This is ROCK HARD FABS, and it will be surely confused with the other ROCK HARD. I have seen this jeep in person haha.

In assuming your not speaking of rock hard fabs? But really cool if you are, didn't realize he was getting so big!
