Anyone have Rok Blokz on a Gladiator diesel ?

[ADVTIMES]

I am looking to get a set of mud flaps for my JTRD. I like the Rok Blokz but noticed on there site, that they may not fit on the diesel. I have reached out to Rok Blokz and they could not confirm if they will fit.

Anyone have these mounted on their diesel ?

Yup. I had no issues on my JTRD.

Greats thanks. Do you have them on the front and rear ?

Front and rear. I believe mine are the XL, but that shouldn’t make any difference.

#GibbsonsMonkey, do you think they will fit with the Mopar sidesteps

Fit great on mine. Just posted pictures on another thread.

They only say that because of the exhaust system, specifically aftermarket, but if you had an issue with the OEM exhaust, they are able to be trimed/cut.

from the website: This full set fits all 2020+ Jeep Gladiator trim levels, but rears may not work with the EcoDiesel Models due to the position of the exhaust

depends if they protrude into the wheel well... they can be cut or ordered with holes precut... but I believe the precut is for the rubicon rails.

I just installed these last week on my JTRD. Standard size. If the steps stick out into the wheel well you would need to cut a clearance hole in the flap for the step.

The fronts have a partially traced/ pre-cut section of the flap that can be removed for the the OEM Rubicon rock rails. If you do not have the rock rails you do not remove the pre-cut section.

The rears were a straight forward install. Exhaust side rear OEM bracket is replaced by the new Rock Blok bracket and not put back on.

I put them on my 2021 Willys eco diesel about a month ago front and back.

Issues with front: Rokblokz said to order without notch for factory rock rails…that was very much incorrect. I ended up “custom” fitting them with my Dremel. Nice way of saying I managed to mangle them into position. I’ll live, but get them factory notched/scored if you have any rails or steps.

Issues with rears/OEM exhaust: None. Just remember to get the angled brace piece into place and you’re golden. I had to watch a you tube video from a third party as the vendor video didn’t even talk about them. Also, I believe paper directions are reversed on the right/left side as they are written for gas version of Gladiator. That or I was so pissed about the fronts that I missed it by the time I got to the rears.

The willys has Rubicon Rock Rails, they didn't not tell you to order without the cutout
From RokBlokz website:
The FRONT FLAPS work with the OEM fenders ONLY. They will not mount on aftermarket fenders or split OEM fenders. They are designed with the shape of the OEM Rubicon Rock Rails partially cut out, simply cut the tabs and remove the shape allowing the Rubicon Rock Rails to pass through the front flap.

Many other rock rails/side steps do not come as far forward as the OEM Rubicon sliders do and will not interfere with our mud flaps. See pics for more details. If you have the MOPAR PERFORMANCE RAILS you will either need to extend the pre-designed hole or cut your own hole as those are not the same as the stock rubicon rails.

You may also request the front flaps without the partial hole cut out if you either don't have the OEM Rubicon Rock Sliders and/or need to modify the flaps yourself for other rock sliders/side steps. Just make sure to leave a NOTE when ordering saying "NO PARTIALLY CUT HOLE PLEASE".

My bad. Apparently I couldn’t read the email directly back from the vendor. Would you like the order email with comments section verifying I didn’t need cut outs and the exhaust wouldn’t be an issue like the original poster also noticed?

If the email from your vendor states you don't have Rubicon Rock Rails when you know you do, maybe it's time to exercise some personal discretion. Short of that, I'd take that email, shove it back in their faces, and ask for the right flaps.

Personally, they fucked my order up 7 ways from Sunday. They sent me non-cut flaps with bronco brackets and hardware (order very clearly states gladiator, even their packing slip said gladiator). But when I contacted them about their mistake they fixed it very quickly.
