Nice pics. Good looking Cherokee but are those r7nning boards or steps on it? They look unusual, must be a Euro thing.

They are side steps. They're quite popular here.

Perhaps I should say they 'were' side steps. One of them sustained a bit of damage that day

Yeah we tend to tear thibngs like that off of our Jeeps over here. We have what we call sliders which are pretty stout and can protect the rockers and also be used to pivot around trees and large rocks.

Glad to hear it is being replaced with something worthy of the task. Send us some pics after you get them installed.

New Rock/Tree sliders were fitted on Sunday. They also double as steps as Mrs Confusion is quite small

They were custom made for me by a member of the RockzNRutz forum.

www.rockznrutz.com

He say's he's quite happy to make them to order, but the exchange rate would make them about $400 a pair plus shipping.
