Default Rough Country Skid Plates

Anyone use these...their pricing looks reasonable and the thickness is good.

Have searched the forums but haven't seen anything on them.

Was looking to at least run the front and muffler skids just to keep from bouncing anything off either end.

My opinion, do not buy ANYTHING Rough Country. You get what you pay for. Save your coin and get something that won't be junk, and will actually bolt up like its supposed to.

I have seen that their lifts are cheap/cheaply made which is why I wanted to ask if anyone has used their skids.

Recommendations?

Not a RC fan myself but I was surprisingly impressed with their line of skid plates.

I have their gas tank skid plate and must say it was spot on. No fitment issues and the thing is just as strong/thick as anything else out there.

The powder coating seems to be holding up well and the hardware kit included quality parts. Also worh noting is these parts are made right here in the USA.


Photos....

I saw some of those on another site. Not bad.

Anyone running anything else?
