This is the cheapest one I found USA side and I order all my Rugged Ridge stuff from them...I don't know their international shipping rates..You might drop them an e-mail.. I believe they ship directly from the RR warehouse...

Hope this helps..

Just installed RR 11586.01 Off Road Mounting Bracket. Very nice product, but there are two issues with the instructions:

1. The drilling template is not 1:1 scale! The instructions have been photocopied, and in the process reduced. Suggest you measure to establish drilling positions.

2. The instructions are silent on how to fit the plastic hinge covers back on. There is a trick - you need to superglue a washer to one end of each spacer so that you can get the bracket on with the plastic cover in place.

I had the same problem with the shrunken template. Managed to get mine on without superglue but there was a lot of cursing. Very happy with it now that it's fitted though.

I've got a tailgate strut which is the best thing that should have been done by the factory that I've done.

You just have to get in the habit of never closing the tailgate with the glass open.
