    Rocker Skids

    I think It is Cody's YJ that it looks like the Rocker Skids are made out of angle Iron. I was just wondering If he made those or not? If he did I am interested in Making as set for my Jeep and selling my nerf bars that suck on the side

    I used 3x5x3/16. A little smaller would be fine, but for other reasons I had to have a 5". Don't use less than 3/16".

    me put picture

    They make it easy to trash the rest of the body

    3x3 1/4inch angle....drill a few holes and bolt it up.

    here's my TJ...4x4x1/4

    Be really careful about where you put your bolts...there aren't a whole lot of perfect places to bolt into a TJ tub so measure twice

    crappy pic:


    closer pic - I used a grinder to form the edges at the fenders so I wouldn't catch a tire on a corner
