Construction & Design

Crafted from heavy-gauge steel, the Rugged Ridge RRC Rocker Guards are built to withstand the rigors of off-road use. The robust steel tubing is expertly welded and finished with a durable textured black powder coat that resists rust and abrasion. The design incorporates a side hoop that extends protection beyond the rocker panel, guarding against large rocks and 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 or requiring permanent modifications. This thoughtful engineering maintains the vehicle’s factory ground clearance and suspension performance, crucial for serious rock crawling and trail driving.

Installation of the Rugged Ridge RRC Rocker Guards is straightforward and user-friendly. The guards mount directly to the Jeep’s frame using a bolt-on system that eliminates the need for drilling or welding. This secure mounting method provides a bounce-free fit that stays firmly in place even on the roughest trails.
