I haven't really posted much on here but thought I could start now and share the rocker guards I made up. I needed to get rid of the old Smittybuilt junk and get something I could trust a little better... So... I built these... 3/16" plate steel side and bottom with a 2" square .120 wall square tube for the corner. Then 1 1/2" .120 wall tube step. I lucked out and found the plate steel already cut in 5' x 6" pieces so it was just a trim to fit with those. Picked up some flat hex bolts, from home depot, that could be countersunk. Once I had the plates and square tubing in place, I tacked it and then started welding a short passes. I welded it all together while it was mounted on the jeep because if I did it on the bench, and it warped, I'd never get it back on. Because of that, most of my welds were overhead so they are a little rough... Don't judge. I then ground down some of the welds (not perfect but doesn't matter to me) and then painted. Installed. Ready to test. All in all, I spent about 100 bucks in materials (all metal was from the remnants pile) plus a cpl days of labor.
