A rig needs maximum traction. Of course tires are key, but keeping the tire contact patches on the trail surface, all four of them, improves traction and vehicle stability. To maximize the work the tires can do requires a suspension system that is very nimble. With optimum springs, shocks, sway bars, control arm and suspension joints, the tires will all stay planted on the ground (or rocks), creating stability and allowing all four tire contact patches to The ULTIMATE JeepWrangler JK provide some much needed traction.

If you are vertically challenged, getting into a lifted Jeep presents a significant challenge. Enter the Rampage Products Retractable Rockguard Steps. While not billed as a true rock slider, our test indicates that this is actually a pretty tough product, have taken a couple hard hits on black diamond trail with no ill effects. The installation was actually easily accomplished by on person in about three hours, including removing the old rock sliders. The rotation of the step is simple, and it locks in place. A simple release lever allows the step to rotate back into the up position automatically with two small high pressure gas shocks. With the step rotated to the down position, 9" is gained. The door sill on our test JK is 29.5 inches above ground. With the step rotated down, the top of the step is 20.5 inches above ground, a significant improvement.
