Right now I don't think you can get anything stronger than the OEM rocker bars. And frankly I think they look better than the maniks anyway.

I have slammed hard on the OEM bars and as previously stated, no problems. I looked into the maniks but the guy from Manik said they're more for show.

What they said.  
Once you put the rails on yourself, I think you'll change your mind about swapping them out.

Once they are on I don't think you will want to take them off. They are heavy and not that much fun to have to install often.

120 wall is what was posted up the page, whatever that means, They probably weigh about 50lbs. Two people to put them on and no problem.

We need to start a donation for WannabeH3. If everyone just gave one dollar he could probably pay for the rest. I will start with a $10.00 donation.
Help the young starving students that live in the 4th most expensive city in the USA. How are we to pay for chicks, beer and off-road accessories without your support. Dial 1800/give2h3. The fist 100 callers will get something. It's a surprise but they will get something. Email me if you would like to send check or money order directly to him.
Dial NOW!  |

The OEM ones are heavy. Like 50 or 60 pounds. They are heavy duty and two bars not one. The OEM steps that go into them are very nice and they can be taken off in about 5 minutes.
I have slamned down on the OEM's before and wipped off the dirt with no problems.

Good luck with that. Those rock rails are a beaotch to put on. You better off moding your step bars to fit on the rock rails. You really will become pissed every time you want to swap back and forth.

WannabeH3 is so cool.... I will donate one of my rocker bars to him. He can get out and switch them on and off when the going gets tough. Wow, that rhymes.
