Body Armor Overview


Body Armor is a California company that manufactures and produces after-market parts for 4x4 vehicles. Some of the vehicles include Jeeps, Tundras, Tacomas and FJs. They have a mission statement which says: “To put YOU in absolute control of your off-road experience.” They strive to produce heavy duty, high quality parts for motorists’ 4x4s without causing them great expense in purchasing them. Their parts are for EXTREME off-road drivers and the vehicles that take them there.

In the category of front bumpers, they have three main choices. There is the JK 19531 which has a clearance that is a bit higher than the norm. It contains a winch plate that is integrated into the new design. To install, simply bolt it on. There are also in this category the TJ 19531 and more.

If rear bumpers are what a customer is in need of, Body Armor also has those. They have a wide range of rear bumpers and some of them even include swing arms, winch mounts, and more. The bumpers with the tire carriers are very popular with Jeep drivers. These even retain the tow hitch that was originally installed by the factory. 

Bumpers are not the only things that Body Armor makes. There is a huge variety of parts and accessories on their product line. For Jeeps alone, customers can purchase merchandise such as differential armor, rock rails, roof racks and even more.

For motorists who have ever been off-road driving or camping, hunting or even to the beach in their Jeep, they are aware that a lot of times there is not enough room in their Jeep to carry all of their gear. There is a solution to this dilemma and Body Armor has what is needed. 

Roof racks were created to carry large amounts of gear. Motorists can strap just about anything up there. Maybe they are carrying coolers with their food and drinks for their off-road adventures. Or they have camping gear for that weekend getaway. For motorists who are taking a road trip, they might even have their luggage up there. Whatever motorists need to carry with them can be strapped on to their Body Armor roof rack. 

Customers can get their Body Armor roof rack with scores of options, but all of the options go with roof racks that have the following features. They are made from tubing made of steel that is 2” in diameter and .120 thick. The finish on them is very durable as it is of a black powder coat that has a texture to it. Motorists can bolt this together themselves and it has hardware that is grade 8. Both front and rear light bars come as a standard feature of these roof racks. These also have a design that will allow customers to add a Body Armor cargo basket. For motorists who want a roof rack but have a soft top, this is not a problem. They can keep the ability to retract their soft top and still keep the base of the rack.
