I made a pair of rock rails for a fellow Socal Jeeper this weekend and I thought I would share some pics. The first step was cutting out the rocker panels.

Applying a little rustproofing inside where the rocker panels were.

Test fitting.
Next came tack welding the rail in place.

A little detail of the taper at the end of the rails.

Lots and lots of welding.

Fabbing up a filler piece for the end of the rail opening.

The end result, a rail that can take anything you can dish out!
