Nerf Bars - step ups without welding or mods?

hyghlndr · May 4, 2010

Looking for suggestions for nerf bars that mount without welding and as little drilling of the frame as possible. I remember someone mentioning there was a style that mounted in the rear to the rear spring mount, not sure brand or where the front mounted.

Open to suggestions, wife and kids having trouble getting in and out (3.5 suspension lift and 2 inch body lift).

Thanks

Check with (toms bronco part) did have them and they mounted to the rear spring hanger and to the body mount that is on the frame behind the font wheel but you do have to drill a few holes. That what I have on mine and they are very strong and heavy!

Got pictures? especially on how they attach? Are they sturdy enough to act as ski's?

I've got a few picks on my flickr page. If you tie them into your roll cage you I guess could use them as rock ski's. There heavy wall tubing but I don't know if there that heavy to take the abuse of rock crauling without mods.

That's what I want to know too.

I got these from Toms. They came bare and I had them powder coated. I see that they come in SS now. They are really nice to help you climb in unless you are tall. Then they may just be in the way. They are real sturdy but I wouldn't use them for rock skiis.

smittybuilt it the ones I have and they mount the same way, not sure if they are still made by them or not.

I have 2 sets, Smittybilt was the original designer. Thet only flex a tad if really pushed, they could handle some abuse, but do hang down pretty low. Street truck that might see a trail once in awhile, they'll protect, trail rig, you'll rip them off.

here are mine from Toms--they double as a step.

I even cut some gray grip tape to put on the passenger side for the wife and other passengers!;D

...alas

lots of drilling and welding in my case!%)

..I have tested them on the rocks! They Work SWEET!

Sorry to revive an older thread, but this is something that I'm looking in too. The guys that got the Tom's Rock Ski w/Nerf, did you enforce them? On the site, it says that they are not to be used as a step.

I thought I saw some on another site and it went to the frame and said they could be stepped on. Is there anything else that has rocker protection w/a step?
