Overview

The Rugged Ridge Elite door handle inserts, part number 13311.51, are brushed tread inserts for the 2007–2018 Jeep Wrangler JK Unlimited four-door, also written JKU. The set has 5 inserts for all doors and the rear tailgate.

Key features

  • Lustrous brushed finish
  • Lightweight cast aluminum construction
  • Set of 5 for all doors and the rear tailgate
  • Double-sided automotive tape installation
  • No sharp edges for a comfort-fitting install

Tread inserts on the JKU

Five-piece sets cover the front and rear doors and the tailgate, so it helps to plan installation handle by handle. Clean each one with a mild cleaner, let it dry, and dry-fit the insert to confirm alignment. Lift a corner if the tape starts to bunch, and reposition before pressing it fully down.

Brushed tread finishes resist light marks but collect dust in the grooves of the inlay. A soft brush, mild soap and clean water are enough for routine care. Avoid abrasive pads that can flatten the brushed pattern. Check the edges now and then, especially after a rough trail trip that puts the doors under more handling.

  • Plan installation handle by handle
  • Clear dust from the inlay grooves
  • Check edges after rough trail trips

Questions & Answers

Does the Rugged Ridge 13311.51 fit a 2007–2018 Jeep Wrangler JK Unlimited?

Yes. It fits Unlimited 4-door trims including Rubicon, Sahara, Sport and X, and 2-door trims of the same generation. Check your year, model and trim against these before buying.

What finish do the 13311.51 inserts have?

The inserts have a lustrous brushed finish with a tread-inspired inlay. Each one is lightweight cast aluminum, and the edges are free of sharp points.

How many inserts are included?

The set includes 5 inserts for all doors and the rear tailgate. They attach with double-sided automotive tape, so the handle surface should be clean and dry before pressing them on.

What do I do if an insert comes loose?

Remove the insert gently, clean the handle and the back of the insert, and let both dry fully. Fit fresh double-sided automotive tape and press firmly for a secure bond. Do not reuse old tape that has lost its tackiness, since it will not hold well.
