Universal shock guards

[Colton_101]

I'm currently developing and testing shock guards that will work with all shocks regardless of the brand. They are simular in design to the Rough Country shock guards but can be personalized and made in different colors. I'm trying to see if there is a want for this product so if you would have any interest in maybe buying one in the future just by what I've said let me know.

I think a lot of people who actually have that problem end up outboarding the shocks.

What do you mean outboarding? Like get rid of?

Moves the rear shocks to the outside of frame rails.

Do you own a Jeep tj?

There are a lot of shocks out now in the shaft up, body down configuration, and protectors aren’t needed.

I didn't know that was a thing people did but ok.

Yes, I have a 2001 tj sport in amber fire pearl paint.

Ya that's true and let's say even if it's not needed for protection some people might want one in a different color to stand out. Just think on another idea of the product.

Most guys just throw them away. All they do is trap water, mud, and sand in them potentially causing MORE damage than they're supposed to prevent.

I thought we were talking about some mini-skid plates to protect the shock from rock damage?

Ya I understand that and that's why I have a couple other threads out on other websites to see if it pulls different crowds. For here I wanted to see about the point of view

That looks like something that could easily be produced with a 3d printer. Also, I don't see the point in it, and RC wants $20 each.
