Just a heads up for others planning to purchase the smittybilt XRC armor fenders. I purchased, but was unable to get them installed because I have the Rockslide 2nd Gen steps. The fenders will not fit my jeep jk with that style steps.
Just joined JKforum and saw your question. There is a fantastic solutio, Aerolidz. I tried everything and nothing worked until Iput on the aerolidz. https://aeroxindustries.com/
