Reviews for Quadratec QRC Side Armor with Step for 07-18 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited JK

Perfect fit. Was missing one lock nut, but had a spare in the garage. A bit heavy for one person, but managed to lift one end using luggage rack while bolting the other end.

Would definitely recommend. I have an 09 so I had to use the adapter brackets, but it worked great.

It took me a bit to figure out the install on the first step, but the second went on really easy.

Easy Install.

The steps look great, I think they’re perfect but my wife would have liked to have the stick out more. I was a little annoyed at how big the logo was but it comes off really easy, just pull with your finger.

Great addition to my Jeep. Easy install and they look great. 6 months in and no issues.

These were pretty straightforward and simple to install. I've already slammed the weight of the jeep down on some rocks a few times and only have one small dent on the underside of one of them to show for it.

Easy installation. Very good protection, especially in parking lots with runaway shopping carts.

Great fit and look while providing additional protection. I now have access to the rocker panels to wash and wax them easily.

I had noticed that my stock Rubicon rock rails had begun to rust and decided rather than to take them off and paint them, I'd replace them with some that had steps on them.
Having done a lot of business with Qudratec, I was satisfied I would find something I would be pleased with on their site.
I bought these because of their appearance and high ratings from customers.
I had them put on last Friday and I am very pleased with them and I don't see how I could have gotten better quality for the money spent.
There was two small spots that the finish had been rubbed off during shipping but I had a can of AEV touch up paint and all is good not.
As always, I am very pleased with my purchase from Quadratec.
If you want good value for your money, get these rock rails.
I am very pleased with my purchase.

TBH I was going to go with one of the tube step models for $100 cheaper. I can't emphasize this enough, pay the extra for these!!! They are extremely well made and weigh a ton. It took me about 2 hours to install them by myself. I used a jack stand to hold one end while I slipped a 10mm hex screw through the pinch seam on the other side. Once I had a 10mm hex screw in each end I didn't need any additional support.

Now, everything installed great except the rear 16mm bolt. I have an 08 Unlimited and I have no doubt small changes are made on the assembly line every so often. Quadratec can't account for everything, but basically the bolt hole was mostly sealed with some goop. When I cleared it it was obvious neither of the two heavy bolt options included would fit. The hole was too small. I plan on drilling out the frame rail and installing the 16mm hex bolt on each side this summer since they included nut plates for the 16mm bolt.

Even so, you wouldn't notice that the third bolt wasn't installed. No rattling, vibrating, etc. This is one of the BEST upgrades I have done. My 3 year old can get into the Jeep all by herself now. She and my wife might be more excited than I am!
