Rokblokz Installed

[ColdSRT]

Just got my Rokblokz in the mail. Had to get something to protect the rear fenders, rear hinges and rear door openings from getting chewed up by rocks.

They look like quality parts and install was easy. I did install them differently than the instructions to give them some more support, especially with the thin fender liners on the JT. They have QD thumbscrews if you want to take them off on the trails. I wonder how the heads of those will last after an Alaskan winter, but only time will tell.

I was really only concerned with front flaps but will likely get the rears when they have those ready. They even included a snack to get you through the install. Haha.

Ordered a set of regular size but didn’t realize when I ordered new wheels they would stick out past the fender. Wonder how well the smaller size will still work? Block most of the mud and rocks or if I need to re-order...

Didn’t like the look of the flap sticking past the fender.

Even with stock wheels and tires, the flaps don't give full tire coverage. From what I've seen on the JL forums and in experience with other flaps, these will do enough to keep most of the crap off the body. The XLs will be a hair better but I don't like them hanging out either.

I used the candy to bribe kids to install them. In reality my daughter ate the candy and read directions to me.

Below are pics of the regular size with tires that stick out a bit for reference or anyone interested.

I attached mine differently. They are behind the wheel well plastic piece. I will have to look again to see if I need to change them.

I tucked mine behind too.

Looks great guys. Smart trick with the candy.

The directions called for attaching two of the clips to the flap itself. In my opinion, that leaves two of the three fasteners supported by the thin fender liner and leaves out the support from the thick bracket behind them. I attached those two clips to the two tabs on the heavy plastic bracket. They are rock solid that way. I figured when installing that I would rather the cheaper flaps take more of the rock hits than the lower 2 inches of the likely more expensive fender liner. That said, I think they look cleaner tucked behind the liner like the instructions say to do. I think I'm going to go tuck them in.

FYI, I just heard back from RokBlokz:

Installed a set of the XL front flaps today. I also put the two top clips on the fender side and not on the flaps. Sandwiched the flap between the liner and the thicker plastic part of the fender. Not sure if they are supposed to angle so far back, maybe because I have max tow?

Yeah but it's ANNOYING that they now have a whole front/rear set for less than the front and rear purchased individually. Screws over the people who bought rear awhile ago out of 40 bucks

Can someone with front and back ones post a pic of the truck from the side please? Like a profile shot from a distance away.

I would reach out to them and let them know you purchased one without the other. maybe they'll be willing to throw a discount code on or something.

Oh I've tried. They haven't responded.

I am in the same boat. Bought a set last week and no rears were listed or I would have bought them. $24.95 is a pretty good difference, enough to complain about anyway. I sent them a nice note asking what they were going to do for their customers who bought front only because no rears were available.
