Ruff Stuff going out of business

[cheavyk10]

They seemed to have a bad last couple years, but now its official.
Although, I had no issue with the disc brake kit I got from them last year.
Sad to see them go.

Dang, their website is still going. I hope someone picks them up. I guess Barnes is my next go to

The guy that bought them to try and save them will be starting a new company.

All the others making and selling flooded the market in my opinion . I talked with him 2 - 3 times nice guy and easy to help and figure stuff out .

Best wishes to them and new owner / company .

Dam, that sucks...

Well crap...

Yeah, got a lot of RSS things on Bender but thats the tough part, I'm done. Got no other rig. We are all going to be sad but its hard to continue patronizing a business once a rig is going. (Ex: why all vehicle manufacturers seem to revamp everything each couple of years) Add to the fact people aren't spending money because there's nothing "extra" left over.

I'm sure all the rest have their strings tight right now, ORD included.

Building anything like a rig is cost prohibitive right now.
For example an oil feel hose was $52 in 2018 and I need another but now it’s $132. This isn’t even fun like that. Kinda pissing me off tbh.

Yeah everything is through the roof and the quality is in the shitter!

I was wondering who that was on insta and I didn't remember following them lol

They started using today's customers' money to pay for last months' customer's product. The guy that bought the remnants isn't impressing me much either.


I actually don't know what is going on with the offroad industry right now as a whole. Prices are through the roof well past inflation.

The other day I was looking at Hutchinson wheels again for my Rubicant... they're up to $950 now. You can't tell me a cast wheel costs more to make than a forged double beadlock. And you can't tell me it costs 100% more to get it to me today than it did in 2020.

Fo sho

Local shop to me so they’ve been a great resource over the years. Ever since Dan took a step back from the business it seemed to change……

I don’t know the new guy but I’ll probably give him a shot at some point.

Yeah I have been there a couple of times but not in the past 4 years so didn't see the change or decline

I remember talking to Dan on the phone ordering my 7/8 heim steering kit. We talked about Phoenix longer then it was to place the order.

He’s a social guy for sure. He would crack jokes and talk about random topics as long as you would listen.
