Rocker guard step and other things

Hello guys, still working to make my dream rig. I'm not sure if this should go here or in parts, but since I am asking opinions on parts I guess it should really go here, so thanks in advance;
Ok here's my questions

Is there a rocker ski guard for a fiberglass tub with a functional step that ties to the frame or something? I like this (see link below) but it's my understanding it isn't functional, so if you actually use the step you can crack or damage tub.

I like the way it covers the rockers because I just removed some hideous looking diamond plate and there are a couple bolt holes that need covered.

I'm also looking for a way to mount a tire carrier on the back for a fiberglass tub, but I just bought new chrome bumpers so I'd like to keep them. Let me know what you think.

Need a stock looking radio with a sound jack, Bluetooth and a couple speakers.

Also need a family roll bar, with a way to really make it safe on a fiberglass tub. Would like to go ahead and get 3 pt seat belts with it, so I want it to be ready for the seat belts as well.

Hey lewis. Come by. I have a set without the steps. We can see how they fit and come up with a plan for support. I have an idea about the tire carrier too. We can just about make all that happen. The radio you want is the retrosound huntington unit. Its on most the vendor sites. Deano and i installed one in his copper bronco

If you tie it to both the frame and to the fiberglass rocker you are asking for trouble. The body will flex on the frame and if you have a hard rocker guard attached to both, I'm guessing your fiberglass rocker isn't going to be too happy.

Hello Crush,

Thanks, I do appreciate it. Just finding time to go do anything with this new job, is difficult. That's why I thought if I could just find a set and install. But maybe after wrestling season, it's nearing an end...WSAZ tourney this weekend. Hope you are doing well, hardly ever get to talk to you and Deano. Hopefully I will go to TN this year, if it doesn't coincide with my boys birthday plans. I won't get to go until Friday evening, since I don't have any time off at my work yet.

I need to just buy a mig welder and cutting torch and make some of this stuff myself......time.
