As the title implies, is it possible to root without first restoring back to ICS 4.0.4? Just got my wife a Razr HD that came out of the box already on JB 4.1.1.

Just do it. It's extremely easy. Read up before you do any big step, and if you screw it up it's your fault. It's a deceptively simple process, and it's definitely worth it.

Thanks, I knew it was easy having previously reflashed my own MAXX HD. I was just hoping to saving a bit of time and some steps. I actually did the restore to 4.0.4 a couple of hours after the OP and subsequently rooted and then did the OTA back to 4.1.1.
