Something a Little Different

We built these rocker panels for a customer who's nicknamed his Jeep "Badhabit"

Finished them up last night.

Cut from 3/16" plate & then formed on our press brake.






I designed them to tie into the body mount for added support.







1.5" Tube Steps with integrated 1/8" Dimple Died Plate.

I like those.... Are they angled upwards at all? Hard to tell from the pics.

nice job, Ken!! Based on that cut on the rear flare it looks like he had some homebuilt ones on there before.

Thanks for the props guys.

As far as the weight, they're not that bad. Maybe 25 to 35 lbs. each, just about the same weight as any of your standard rocker panels with steps.

Have another questions also.... Wouldn't those bolts on the underside cause some problems? just wondering.

Like the design!
