Reviews for Rough Country Solid Steel Front Grab Handles for 07-18 Jeep Wrangler JK
Love the handles!! My box didn't come with any instructions. It took about 30 minutes on one and 5 minutes on the other! Until we figured it out. Truth is, although there aren't any right/left labels it matters. The key is to make sure that on the handle you choose, the top hole is pointing towards the door. Otherwise, if the handles are reversed the holes and spacers won't line up and the handles will point inward and not flush. Giving it 5 stars for the great price and solid metal construction. I am hopeful of the stabilty this item offers for the long run.
Great product! The packaging was so neat and I was very impressed. I got these for Christmas from a family member and made getting into my Jeep so much easier. No more pulling my self up high from the steering wheel. Great product and is also great in the winter when clearing snow off the roof cause you can open the door and climb up on the edge and hold on to push all that snow off. I give this product a thumbs up!
These are very sturdy and fit perfectly. Easy to install.
Quick and easy to install. They look great! Nice and sturdy!
Super product! Shipping was incredibly fast! This is a great quality product very solidly built. I'm glad I purchased them. As with the other reviews, I wadded up some duct tape and made a "catch" under the pillar bolt. Then I put some tape inside my socket & pulled it out in order to make it "sticky". The bolts came out and stayed in my socket so the "catch" wasn't needed. It would have been nice if they came with an included 6mm wrench, but it was no big deal.
Grab handles were just what I wanted. Very well constructed and the right size. I did have issue with installation. The only way I could get the items installed was putting the A-pillar bolt in first, then carefully placing the spacer into the space for the bolt to the outside of the sun visors. Not a big deal once I figured it out. When I did it by the supplied directions I could not get the A-pillar spacer/bolt to line up. Sounds weird but it just wouldn’t line up. I have a picture showing this if I can get it attached.
The only other advice I have it be really careful with the vertical bolt you install( the short bolt). It seemed easy to cross thread. I could feel it trying so I was very careful. The tapper hole it goes in is a little off center of the opening. You can see it if you look up into the space. If you notice, the factory bolt you remove has a slight taper to its end to allow this bolt to find its place in the hole. I did put blue thread locker ( removeable type) for added security.
By the way this was installed on 2017 2-door Willys Wheeler model.
Ps: directions warn you about bolt outside the sun visor accidentally being dropper down the inside of the plastic trim. I used a small piece of duct tape stuck over the end of this bolt head. Them pushed my 13 mm socket down over it. That hold that bolt in the socket once it comes loose.
Very fast ship. High quality packaging. Item appears to be solid and good quality. Now for install. Don't drop the bolt! Probably should not not have had the extra coffee that morning and shakey hands. I did drop, however, knowing about that from other reviews and youtube videos, I was prepared. I rolled up duct tape and stuck it down the hole leaving a tale out to pull it back out with. The bolt fell, landed on the duct tape safety net, tweezered it out, then pulled the duct tape out...it saved the day. Something to help if you don't have surgeon steady hands, and back off the caffeine before you start! Bars are very helpful for entry. Recommend...and don't forget to have duct tape nearby!
10 min to install. Very easy. Good quality and works great.
Easy install, great quality. Best of all makes in and out effortless in a lifted JK.
