Reviews for Rugged Ridge 11216.32 Front & Rear Entry Guards for 18-22 Jeep Wrangler JL Unlimited & Gladiator JT
Look good and easy to install, however the fit could be better. There’s some irregularities where it meets the black plastic interior trim and as a result you can see the metal of the sill between. Great for the intended purpose of keeping the sills free of scuffs and gouges though. Would be nice if they included the suggested 3M adhesion prep sponges, but they’re on amazon for less than $20. Install is easy enough, just make sure you test fit before applying. All in all happy with them, just wish the interior-facing edge was cut more precisely.
So far so good, after one day. I didn't use the 3M adhesive prep as required by the instructions, because I do not have any and the manufacturer doesn't provide any. Is it too much to ask for a small quantity to be included with the package, it's a rare item that most people are not going to have on-hand. Reduced one star for not including a "required" installation item.
Haven’t put more than 300 total miles of my JL but still recommend this product. Have had on at least two JKs and they held up well and never failed.
Quality materials, solid, look good. The fit was slightly off at the leading corners, and the section that goes over the vertical part of the sill seemed just a little too high, but they still look good and work great. I'm happy with them.
I love the product BUT the instructions that came with it were not for the product at all. Good thing is they're not hard to install (obviously) so it's not a big deal but this is the second time that something from Quadratec came with the wrong instructions. Not sure who's fault that is but I think Quadratec should review items before shipping to ensure correct instructions.
Great entry guards, great pricing, awesome fit. BUT....here is my question: If you are going to sell a product, wouldn't it make sense to include the 3m bonders that are recommended in the installation instructions so that you can install the the product you buy to protect your purchase?
Waiting to install as 3M adhesive promoter which is required for installation is apparently not included. Ended up ordering a 3-pack from Walmart's website for $8.90. You would have thought they would have included a critical item like this in the kit as most of these installations are likely done by DIYers. I didn't want to risk the tape not sticking correctly. Otherwise appear to fit nicely and well made.
Front fits fine but the rear not so much
Product looks good but could not install since the 3M adhesive promoter (that was described in the installation instructions as essential ) was not in the box. Will be contacting Quadratec to send
Does not seal properly. A waste of money.
