You mean the rock sliders? If so, what do you suggest?

Angled square tubing is what I added to mine. The sheet metal only takes so much and want a solid brace behind it.

Update:
I’ve been driving the Cop Jeep to and from work, ~40 Miles. She’s driving great. I used BG44k fuel system cleaner to run through the system and have loved the results. I don’t have any specific data but have noticed a change in fuel economy and smoother idling. I rolled cheap bed liner on the new bumper and it turned out great. I replace the limited slip rear end with a craigslist special and it runs out nicely.

Things left to do:
1) Headliner: either replace with fabric or roll bed liner.
2) close the gap in the rear wheel wells.

Default Update and Summer to do list

I’ve continued to drive the jeep to work a few times a week.

My summer to do list:
- close gap in rear * in progress *
- headliner - instead of fabric I am going to use roll on bed liner
- sand and paint roof and possibly hood.
- Sale
