Bring Back Jeeperman

Does anyone know if someone out there will eventually start building products similar to Jeeperman? I've really liked everything I've seen (for the most part) from Jeeperman, but obviously you can't get it anymore. It's my understanding they've been out of business for 2-3 years. As popular as Jeeperman was, it just seems like someone out there would model their stuff (if they don't have a patent) like theirs or pick up where they left off. I'm particularly trying to find some Rocker Skidz / steps like those made by JM. I believe that's what is on this jeep.

That would be a big bummer. I've been wanting the old Jeeperman Skidz as well with my second choice being the Red Rock Fabs. I've just been trying to take care of some other things before I ordered them. I hope they stick around for awhile.

But on a more positive note. Check this out.
http://www.jeeperman.com/

The website says they are coming back and they have a little survey to fill out asking what products they should do first. I hope they come back with some LJ skidz. I'll be in line right away to get a set if they can keep prices competitive with others. So your wish might be granted. Fill out the survey and sign up for the email letter. I did a couple of weeks ago.

The Rock Hard bumper is so close to the same that you can use their bolt on can holders etc on a Jeeperman bumper (had one before I dumped it to save weight/length)

As far as rocker skids go there are far better options out there.

If you want a frame mounted option, the only one that I feel might be better is the RedRock Fab. These are the two I have narrowed it down to. I'm waiting to see what Jeeperman comes back with before I purchase one. I like the Red Rock but it does seem a bit spendy with the aluminum step.

EDIT: I contacted Jeeperman a few days ago and they said they will be back soon.

I've got a set of Jeeperman LJ skids for no body lift I'd sell. I'm in Denver though.
