Default My homemade rock rails...

Finally got around to taking some pics of the rock rails I made. They are welded on to the stock rubi rails. I used 1.5" tubing with 90 and 45 degree but weld elbows for the corners then i think 16gauge plate for the step with little bits of tubing welded onto it to make the raised holes for grip. I styled them kinda like the PJ ones. So far they've worked really well and held up to some big hits, I feel like I could reinforce them a bit more though, so I'll look into that when I get a chance.

Damn, those are awesome, I love the fact that they're welded to the stock rubi rails.
