Does anybody else have issues with Rough Country parts?

I'm two-for-two with fitment issues.

I purchased a trailer hitch for my Bronco and winch bumper for my son's Jeep JK so he could go off-roading with me...both items didn't fit!!!

My son said he'd left several messages over the phone this week to no avail and I had to email them through a "form" on their website...fingers crossed.

Buyer's beware, that's what I get for trying to save a few bucks for some last-minute impulse purchases!

That sucks. I have spoken to people at RC several times. They are usually quick to respond, very nice, and helpful. Keep trying on phone. You will get someone. I ordered all my lights from them. Super high quality. Wide angle ditch lights, 30in single row bar, 2 8in single row bars. Just have to install the 2 8in bars in the bumper.

That's unfortunate. My hitch was very tight but it went on with a couple taps from the mallet.

That's not right.

wow...that's definitely a fab error.

I'll second the BAMF hitch, I got it when it was $99 and I put it on pretty easy. The only "issue" was the hitch pin I had was tight going through, but that could be a combination of the pin having a protective coating and the receiver being thick powder coated.

No problems with any RC product I've had purchased.

But here is a little insight for you. Instead of flipping out on a forum, maybe call the manufacturer / company and explain the issue, maybe send pictures in an email and you could get it resolved pretty quickly. immediately pointing fingers and complaining about a company that is providing a service to you, that you voluntarily purchased, is not the way to be an adult.

Im sorry if you take this comment negatively, but put yourself in others shoes that can't have the ability to have expendable income to purchase wants, but only needs. It's all about perspective. Don't sweat the small stuff.

Rough county uses so many of the same electrical lights and winches as harbor freight, so it's not surprising they cheap out in other areas.

That being said I'm a fan of harbor freight parts, but it is what it is with quality control.

I just bought the draw tite hitch on amazon for like $130. E trailer was back ordered but I found it there and it was delivered the same day (but i think that was because i was in the same city as the seller).

Oh you missed the part where he said they called several times and left messages but haven't heard anything back. Reading is hard.......

Buy the USA made Curt. Best fit and finish around, from a trusted maker.
