Construction & Design

Constructed from high-strength steel, the Rugged Ridge RRC Rocker Guards are built to withstand the harshest off-road conditions. The robust steel tubing is expertly welded and finished with a durable black powder coat that provides excellent resistance to rust and corrosion. The design incorporates a side hoop that extends protection beyond the rocker panel, shielding the vehicle from large rocks and trail obstacles that could otherwise cause costly damage.

The no-drill frame-mounted design ensures that the guards attach securely to the Jeep’s frame without compromising structural integrity. By positioning the mounting points above the frame’s bottom edge, Rugged Ridge maximizes ground clearance, allowing for confident navigation over uneven terrain without the risk of catching or scraping the guards.

Installation & Fitment

Installation of the RRC Rocker Guards is straightforward and user-friendly, requiring no drilling or permanent modifications to your Jeep. The guards bolt directly to existing frame mounts using the included hardware, ensuring a tight, bounce-free fit that maintains vehicle stability on rough trails. This bolt-on design also allows for easy removal or replacement if needed.

These rocker guards are engineered specifically to fit Jeep Wrangler JK models from 2007 to 2018 with 3.8L and 3.6L V6 engines, guaranteeing precise alignment and compatibility with factory mounting points and body contours.
