Has anyone installed the Rugged Ridge RRC side armor guards? Just interested in any pros and/or cons before I purchase them. Thanks

 

Also interested in the Rugged Ridge and will be watching this post. Anyone else using the Smittybilt SRC Side Armor. They look similar.

 

I'm interested in those Smittybilt SRC side armor also. Only thing is that I called 4wd.com and the person on the phone said they won't be available till later this year.

 

i ordered the rugged ridge side armor but i cancelled my order when they told me they wouldnt be in till april or may. they look nice but i didnt want to wait that long , i also ordered the back and front bumpers but same story.

 

How are the Smittybilt SRC side armor attached? Any drilling to be done or just a direct bolt on.

 

Btt.......

 

From what little info I've found about the Smittybilt, they are direct bolt on. I emailed Smittybilt directly and they responded saying they will be available till summer. Not very specific for time frame but at least somewhat of an idea on availability.

 

I went out to 4Wheel Drive Hardware's showroom 2 weeks ago to buy a set of rocker gaurds. The only thing they had in stock for a JK was the mopar nerf bars. The told me they had 30 sets of the Smittybilt side armor due in on the 14th of May, so I purchased a set of them . When I called today to check if they were in, 4WD told my they did not expect them in untill mid June! It sounds like you'll be waiting untill the end of summer for either one of these rocker gaurds. Better learn to weld in the mean time.

 

They(RRC) are direct bolt on. Mine should be here early next week. it was shipping today or Monday at the latest.

 

myklt8, who did you order them from?
