Rock rails for the old girl.

[Yager]

Hey y'all. Just figured I'd post up a few pics of my new rock rails side steps I built. Going to be fabricating some custom bumpers as well. If y'all are interested in any of thi its stuff. Let me know I can do a write up on everything.

Lol I'm in Florida actually. I just shot them with some bed liner and will be mounting them up tomorrow. I'll get some finished pics up soon.

Let me know a cost, may be worth the ride from North of Atlanta.
Would love to get rid of the stock rails.

Got a few coats of the bed liner on last night. Checked them this morning. Seem to be rock hard. Not bad for cheap rattle can bed liner

Nice.

Are they weld on or bolt on?

 

[Yager]

I welded mine. Added gussets to the plate. Be easy to do a bolt on style. Id just use angle to wrap the frame with a u bolt. I thought about bolting then but I've already decided this ex will probably get sas and some extensive fab work. So wasnt to worried about welding to it.

Here they are in all there glory. Came out allot better then I thought and certainly alot nicer then the cheapo factory ones. Plus they add some real body protection

 

[Yager]

Still have to clean up the frame and spray some undercoat on it.

Those look beefy, I just finished up a set on my truck too, my welding kinda sucks so I bought a pre-welded hoop and just had to weld to the truck.

Those look good. I always liked the round ones. I just did square because I didn't have a bender and also wanted a less slippery more stable step. I have 3 chitlins that need to get in and out. They are made from 11 gauge 2x3 and 2x2

 

[Stepcajun]

They look really solid, should be great for that.
I don't remember many rocks where I lived in North Florida, alot of mud

 

[Yager]

yeah it's all mostly mud. Seems unless you have giant tractor tires and 1000hp there isn't much to do. I came from Michigan where the trails were awesome and I had dunes to play in. Whole different world fown here.

Ok what size tires and rims are u running and how much lift to clear them on the black Exp

Where'd you get those?

 

[Stepcajun]

I got the sliders from XO Fab offroad supply in Eunumclaw WA.
They are mostly Toyota parts but the universal kit was just what I was looking for the 80" with the bumpout is exactly the length of the expedition rockers,
I had to shorten them to fit the 37" tires but they would be good up to 35" tires.

Hey Yager those rock sliders look great. How much for a pair?

 

[Yager]

I'm flexible. Lol. Never thought about selling them. I'm open to the idea of making a few up if y'all are really serious about em.
