Advice on tyre carriers / rocker rails (Jeeperman / 4WD / LoD)??
Hi All,
I have been looking for tyre carrier/rear bumper and rocker rails for some
time. Three products that I liked from reading their websites:
1) Jeeperman - do ship their products overseas. The bumper is 60" which
will protect the rear quarters.
2) LoD Offroad - they are really competitively priced, but my emails keep
bouncing back to me.
3) Generic 4WD brand tyre carrier/bumper from www.4wd.com as they ship
overseas as well.
Anybody have any comments on their products? Good, bad or ugly? I tried
Warn's local dealer here and they only carry winches and nothing else. I
would prefer to stick to one style front/sides/back, therefore, same
manufacturer. I don't have a need to tow anything, so a hitch receiver is
not really required for me.
I have just today been told by the local Jeep dealer that they would be
bringing in RHD Unlimiteds next year.... He couldn't say anything else,
especially whether Rubi would be introduced here or not. It all depends on
what the Australian/New Zealand market demand is combined. Time to start
saving for trading in my wife's car.
Thanks guys in advance.

Can't comment on LoD, howver the Jeeperman stuff is really top drawer
quality. Stout as any out ther and seems to have a nice modular system. If
you have a way to get Durango 4x4's stuff you'll also find them to be very
good as well. Warn makes a nice compronmise between quality & cost. Not the
best, but far from the worst.
Just my opinion, but some of the stuff 4WD and Quadratec sell as house
brands tend to be cheap, offsore knock offs. It's the same old story: "Ya's
pays yer money & ya's makes yer choice."

Nope. The guy said he can import what I want as a special order (and
probably charge through the roof). We can get ARB front bars, but not much
in Warn. Do you have any other ideas for my not so real Jeep??
Thanks
