Description of πŸ’ͺ Rock Solid SMART SOLUTIONS 1868 18-inch

The Rock Solid for trucks was designed in response to overwhelming consumer demand. This item is 18" in length. This model also features a 4" lift bracket that is now included in each kit. This lift bracket allows you to raise the guard up (if necessary) to eliminate any gap between the truck bumper and the Rock Solid.

It worked great. I had to drive over 100 km.

Worked great. I had to drive over 100 miles to pick up my car and drive home. Fenders mounted on the Rock Solid hitch kept rocks from climbing up and hitting the car I was towing.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Modern

Flaps fragile for spares

Installed this in 2015 and only used during two motorhomes. I have replaced 4 flaps because they break too easily and 2 more broke off on a recent trip. The "replacement" involves cutting a similar part out of the fender and attaching it to the remaining connector with sheet metal and rivets - it's neither easy nor pretty. This product would have received 5 stars if it was made from a more durable valve material.

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Repair

To make it work for you

It has everything I need to make it work. On the Ram 1500 with the rear exhaust, I had to flip some parts and hang the assembly upside down on the hitch. It should be noted that with this configuration you are planning to use the ball mount for this purpose only. Once you tighten this knot, the ball mount will not slip out without loosening the four screws on the mount again.

Pros
  • great product
Cons
  • frequency

Box damaged, parts missing

Box damaged/opened. Not all hardware included / missing screws and bent corners. The two stone guards have a total length of 68 inches, which does not fully cover a trailer or towed vehicle while driving. Tires can perform better than traditional fenders. Damaged, missing and not what I expected

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Cheaper than other brands but you get what you pay for.

later The materials are decent and the rubber grips are solid. However, none of the rubber holes line up properly with the metal rod, making installation a nightmare. I had to redrill all the holes in the rubber to be able to assemble. My total assembly time exceeded 3 hours due to poor quality control at the factory. In addition, the rubber pads themselves have different lengths. The left guard measures 18.25 inches and the right guard measures 17.5 inches.

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • I'll add

Well it's a joke! - Body and trim

Bought as a last resort for a quick trip because my stone tamers don't fit the car I need them for. These things are a total heap, and literally 1/3 of the hardware is included and listed in what's left of the instructions. I'll make sure everything works because the hardware is pretty standard, but this is one of the most hackneyed packages I've ever sent from Revain. The factory box had multiple holes, just like the Revain box. I read all the reviews before buying and decided I would be one…

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • weak

Much heavier, wrong product, missing bolts and nuts!

Product not as shown. I am leaving in 7 days and now I have no choice but to use this article as I am in Alaska and drive an Alcan. The weight of the product is at least 10# as this rubber is much thicker than the one pictured (which says 5#) as I saw the exact same model in the store and it is a hard plastic/rubber that is lighter and lighter is lets air through. between planks. I'm crazy! Dimensions are as hoped, I need to add a much stronger support bar for the extra weight. Also missing are

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
