Default Anyone have specifications/ blueprint for rockers?

I have a '98 2 door and i have rust holes where my rockers would go. I know a guy who owns a welding company and he said he could make me some for dirt cheap. He just said I need the specifications.

And if I'm going to put them in, will I have to cut out that part of the body?

Thanks

i just used some 2x6 rectangle tubing.

probably not the option for you if your not into wheeling, but they are cheaper and more high clearance than normal rock rails.





i had plans to box in the ends but never got around to it

also they are currently just welded to sheet metal, i had plans to tie them into the frame, but they have proven themselves to be plenty sturdy mounted how they are

That seems like a good idea.
How thick are they?
Where can I get the tubing?
