Re: Re: Important
You wanting to put stock rockers back in it? Take it this is on flo. 2x6 rockers is just as easy and still doesn't look bad on a stock jeep.

This is for Flo, which is going to be a stock axle, 31" tire, 3" lift jeep. T thinks she needs her own jeep. She's gonna start just like the rest of us, small and unlocked until she learns to drive. 
I seen a great write up here somewhere, but I can't find it.
The last time I did it was in 2003 when I was building my old jeep. The late model seems different than I remember the early jeep looking underneath. :dunno:

Pretty much all I did was cut out rocker panel, weld in angle iron to inside rocker area, then set 2x6 on top of angle iron and weld it in.

My Rocker
1"x1" angle spot welded to the inner rocker
1" welded to the door jam (where the clamps are)
2x6 slid in and welded along the parameter
no re-enforcement to the unibody rails and I have used them pretty good, they have not moved.
-be careful trimming the firewall area where the 2x6 meets it.
-had to notch the 2x6 for the seatbelt bolt that goes into the rocker area.
-have fun welding
rest of the pics are here --> http://s774.photobucket.com/user/vt...3&page=2&_suid=141082298600906018835763648704

Re: Re: Important
One thing I'm going to add is a 1/8"x1" flat bar under the sill area that I will plug weld from the top. This will give more substance to weld to across the sill area.
Just reread OKB's thread, and that's exactly how I was thinking I was going to do it.
