TJ-YJ-CJ RICOCHET ROCKERS &
ROCKER KNOCKERS INSTALLATION
Thank you for purchasing Poison Spyder
Ricochet Rockers (shown above) or Rocker
Knockers for your Jeep CJ, YJ or TJ. You now
own the ultimate in rocker panel protection for
your Jeep. If you purchased Rocker Knockers
with the Slider option, these have already been
welded to the Rocker Knockers and install in
the same manner, as do the Ricochet Rockers.
Installation is fairly simple with the right tools
and good mechanical abilities. If you are not
confident in your mechanical skills, please
seek the help of a professional to perform the
installation. Please read through these entire
instructions before proceeding with installation.

Before You Begin
• Paint or powdercoat both the inside and
outside of the Rocker Knockers. If painting
them yourself, take the time to do a thorough
job cleaning the Rockers and making sure
they are completely free of dirt, grease or
oils, solvents or cleaner residue. Sanding or
scuffing the surface will also help the primer
and paint to adhere. Use a quality etching
primer, then paint in your color of choice.
• Park the Jeep on a flat, level surface and set
the emergency brake.
• Be sure that the sides and undercarriage of
the vehicle, in the areas you will be working,
are clean and clear of debris and mud.
• Remove any plastic flares that are bolted to
the side of the body (some TJ’s and YJ’s).
