CURT 16029 puck system 5th wheel legs are protected by a carbide black powdercoat and a limited lifetime warranty.

Full set of Rugged Ridge steel tube fenders helps your Jeep JL rig leave the pavement far behind, starting with a burly, 1.25” mandrel-bent steel tube frame engineered to shine when there are rocks to climb. The top skin is die stamped and laser cut from 12-gauge steel plate—strong enough to survive off-road encounters that would send a plastic fender to the trash pile.

Teflon-coated button-head hardware and a durable, satin-black powdercoat finish the armament, resisting rust and corrosion without sacrificing civilized style.

Available in this full set (11615.73) or in pairs for front or rear.

Features

  • For 2018–2019 Jeep Wrangler JL and JLU
  • Full set of steel tube fenders (front and rear)
