It's not hard to go to the site and type in rock rails. On my phone it's not easy to copy and paste

There are people on the forum that run those except they've welded instead of using the crappy bolts. They've beat em up. Of course they aren't no warn $500 rock sliders or other aftermarket ones but then again no stock part really is. But if someone can't weld or find one at the JY this can save them a few hundred dollars

You on an android I assume because you just go to the address bar press and hold your find and hit copy all and then click in the reply box for Cherokee forum and hit paste. Pretty damn easy same basic thing on any smart phone.

Yea just as easy as going to a site and doing a search I guess. In fact the time I took for some ppl to reply three times to this thread they could have went to the site and typed in rock rails. Idk I guess or ppl just wanna be difficult and can't take a suggestion for where to get Said rock rails and take something well off topic cause they feel high and mighty. In fact I haven't even heard from the OP since this gone off topic.

Mods please close this thread I'm done I've never dealt with such arrogance on this forum before. Acting more like rice burners than anything

Lol @ u if you think the factory ones are rock sliders. Shopping carts dent them.
There is a huge difference between sliders and step tubes.

I'm almost willing to bet that the op is thinking running board style tubes are sliders.

Issue I see is those look more like steps than rocker gaurds. Not to mention they have two mounting points with a couple of bolts I would be money they would hurt more than they helped. On top of all of that they are expensive...Want to talk rice burners those look about as useful as a wing.
