It looks like you have Rock Rails. I bet the Weathertech model for the Rubicon would fit. Do you have the rear rockrails?
It came with the wide running boards, I'll have to give it a closer look. You may be right about the Rubicon ones fitting it. Thanks

I have the Willys package with the rock sliders and just put on the weathertech flaps. They match really nicely, my Willys is black on black so you donā€™t even really notice the extra. Despite being very rigid, they donā€™t hang low enough I donā€™t think to be a clearance issue on rough terrain. Real serious stuff maybe, but most normal all terrain driving wouldnā€™t scare me.

I like the Rokblokz, the rear are still sitting in the garage, but the front work awesome.

Still no luck, although I'm only looking for the no drill version. Jeep/Mopar does have a set that says it would fit but I was hoping the Weathertech ones would be available soon...I'm beginning to second guess that thought.

I can verify the Weathertechs donā€™t fit the High Altitude.
I wasnā€™t aware the fenders were different on the HA from the Overland.
Holes donā€™t line up on the outer lip on the front and the contours are different on the rear.

I run Nyracord rubber front flaps on my JKR because it is my off-road vehicle, and I was worried about the same thing. I made them from a set of semi-truck flaps I got from NAPA. They are mounted to the inner fenders, which are a lot less robust than on the JT. They are super flexible and do a great job off road, but they do tend to 'sail' a little on the highway.

For my Gladiator, I just ordered the Rokblokz because it won't see the hard-core off roading that my JK sees. However, it would be fairly easy to make a similar set of flaps for the JT.

Would you ever just trace the rokblokz onto a heavy mudflap and do it again? What makes the rokblokz worth it? Is it the mounting hardware?

With those running boards you donā€™t really need mud flaps they will not provide any additional protection. I have the same running boards with wider wheels and 35s and I barely get anything on the side of my JT.

I don't normally like the painted plastic bumpers... but that seems to look really nice.

If you don't like it, I'm sure someone would pay top dollar for it and you can just get a takeoff rubi bumper for like $50 on craigslist.

The Rokblokz material seems to be very nice. It is a nice combination of looks, stiffness & flexibility. The heavy rubber semi truck mud flaps are pretty crude looking, and it is tough to find ones that are consistently the same thickness.

Honestly, the RB front flaps aren't anything special other than the material & shape. I used my own stainless mounting hardware and added a few more mounting points to each front flap, so I thought they were overpriced for what they are. BUT, the rear flaps are worth the $ from a design and mounting standpoint.

ripped off my front Rokblokz flap on the trail last week. It ripped the knobs off the bolts and the tabs out of my inner fender. I was able to mount it back, but just be careful when you get it offroad and up in the dirt.

dirty side that ripped off:
