The Rock Hard 4x4™ idea started back the 1980s. Lewis Barth and son, James, had been building off road cages and bumpers for over 20 years. In the 1990s they were building so many cages for friends, transporting them became a challenge. Having to weld the cage in was not something everyone was able do. The Bolt-In design was born and Rock Hard 4x4™ became home of the "do it yourself" cage installation. The patented locking collar design has maintained its superior quality and proven strength over the years. The locking collar connection is proven to be as strong, if not stronger, than other weld in cages. The Rock Hard 4x4™ Patented locking collar is the strongest connection of its kind. Many competitors have tried to duplicate this design and nobody has come close to the quality and superior workmanship.
Rock Hard 4x4 is one of the prominent names providing heavy-duty Jeep armor upgrades. The company was established in the 1980s by Lewis Barth and his son James, who had been engaged in design and construction of off-road bumpers and cages for more than two decades. Having to weld the cage in place was not something everyone could do. This is how the bolt-In design was created, and right after that, Rock Hard 4x4 became well-known for the "do-it-yourself" cage installation technique.
