JLU Boatside Steel & Aluminum Rocker Armor

The Artec Industries JLU Boatside Steel & Aluminum Rocker Armor protects the rockers and lower body of a four-door Jeep Wrangler JL. The boatside profile sweeps up along the tub, so it works as a smooth rock slider that lets you slide over obstacles while shielding the vulnerable sheet metal underneath. It combines a steel inner armor structure with an aluminum outer boatside skin, pairing real impact strength with a lighter outer panel.

Key Features

• Two-material design: steel inner armor with an aluminum outer boatside panel

Fitment & Compatibility

Fits the four-door Jeep Wrangler Unlimited JL (2018-present). It is built for the JLU body only and does not fit the two-door JL or the Gladiator JT, which use their own armor. If you prefer a lighter, single-material option, Artec also offers JLU Aluminum Rocker Armor.

How is this different from the aluminum-only rocker armor?
This version adds a steel inner armor structure behind the aluminum boatside skin for more impact strength, whereas the JLU Aluminum Rocker Armor is a lighter, single-material panel.
