Thanks for the response Jeremy,
Looks like a good simple solution. I'm a Metal Fabricator and think I will try something like that. Sometimes I get lazy and look for something to buy instead of building it right.

are they really necessary? i mean they have already proved to be in the way! I am gonna use some kind of logging chain (small grade) kind of like a rope ladder for my truck so it will just glide over obstacles rather than catch'em like a hook!

By buddy has something on his GMC similar to what Jeremy posted. He built them himself and had them Rhino Lined (or something similar). He calls them his "side bumpers" . . . great for people who don't open doors carefully in a parking lot. They're absolutely indestructable and they protect your rockers from getting thrashed when you're in rocks and junk.

with you being a metal fab'r. i'd fab up my own bar's. i forgot where i read this at, but a guy built his own nerf bars that where useful in 2 ways, 1 by easy access into truck and the other they was sealed and used for a air tank.
