🚗 Rugged Ridge 18003.37 Skid Plate Kit for Jeep Wrangler JK/JKU Control Arms - Ultimate Protection for Off-Roading Enthusiasts Review

Delivery was fast. I missed a couple of washers and had to put them on and tighten them, but they still move when I rock back and forth.

These skids are easy to install and protect the forearm mounts. These mounts can get a lot of scratches on the road, but these runners protect them. Great quality (as I would expect from a Rugged Ridge) and I wouldn't have hit the track without it.

The box with the back panel looked like it had been chewed up by a lion then sealed with clear tape. The bag of screws was torn open with no instructions. The cymbals are covered in different colored plastic so it appears to be a returned set being sold as new.

I installed them about 6 months ago and they saw some action. They were easy to assemble and serve their purpose. So far two of them have scratches or signs of wear on the bottom. The scratches are superficial but I would have preferred the skids to be damaged rather than the shock absorbers. Great product and worth the small investment.

Although Revain stated it didn't fit my 2014 Jeep Wrangler Sahara, a quick call to Rugged Ridge confirmed the kit worked, so I ordered it. Installation took less than an hour, everything is fine! I highly recommend this kit if you are going off-road as it protects your lower control arms. The product is well made and looks like it will last a long time. Also comes with Omix-Ada guarantee.

Beautiful and durable. Easy no-weld installation if you can unscrew the old stabilizer bolts (not necessarily easy). But in theory they should be installed with hand tools. Negative being, everyone is heavy. In and of itself, this is not a cause for concern. However with additional skid plates and possibly secondary bumpers, winch, larger tires etc.; now every little thing counts. I haven't decided yet if they are an absolute necessity. But it won't hurt either.
