Rugged Ridge Arcus

Could you grab a closer pic of those lights? I’m trying to figure out light mounting that isn’t on the bar.

Closest I got. They are just cheapo lights I got off Amazon to try. I read on this forum that the amber cube lights do not ice over like the factory led headlights and fogs. They were right! I was going to upgrade, but these are still working great after a winter of snow and ice.

Awesome, thanks. No issues drilling and mounting the lights there?

No issues. Thin metal outer skin, nothing underneath in that spot.

Still waiting for mine to come in..........ordered 2/14/21 and have had zero communication about it from Rugged Ridge Omix Ada. I ordered directly from the Rugged Ridge site. Oh well, I guess the longer I wait the newer it will be!

I love mine...once I put it on right. Don’t ask...
If I ever get my truck back from the dealer (regearing 4.88s) I’ll get my winch and lights on.
I haven’t had it long enough for longevity opinion...

You know you have to take it all apart except for the winch plate to actually install the winch, right?
I held off on installing it until I had everything cuz I knew it would be a pita to do it later. Just sayin.

I hate to disagree but , I prefer the factory steel bumper , its only $300 more for factory, the skid plate is already there, ok I had to buy the winch mount, but I had the same bumper on my 2016 jk hard rock, 5 Maine winters no rust, and my winch sits down low.

I agree it looks really nice, but out the door it was way more expensive when I factored it in. I got my RR for something like $420 vs the $800 option for Mopar. Add on the mandatory LED light package ($1100) and then $300 for the plate and it ends up being a $2200 option.

Its nice, but I can pretty cheaply coat my RR in bed liner to deal with the small rust spots.

Same for me. Even a coat of fluid film pre winter should add some durability. I cant get over the $1600 price and thats including my EP pricing. $700 and that includes the plate and it will attach my DD lights. Mopar I will need to buy fog light mounts. Seems to be the winner fir me so far. Looks good too

Mopar pricing on things is just strange. I have found a few items that feel like a value, then a ton of things that i can't understand how anybody buys them outside of the inital purchase.

Must suck having to have a lift in your garage, but I guess you get to do the ironing also, so there is that hahaha

I was looking at $2800 Mopar pre tax including a Warn 10s. Now im looking at $1800 RR with tax including the Warn 10s.

I ended up paying about $1105 (No tax in OR) for the Arcus and Warn 10s. Got a very good deal on the Arcus...haha.
