lostissues Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 anyone know where they sell "nerf bars" ??? I like them on trucks.. or do they look ghey? :D :waving: if you like them that is all that matters. I personally don't like them because the only function the provide are looks and steps. I take mine into the woods and if I had them they would get destroyed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freakjeep93 Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 the question is . do you offroad in your truck, if you do you should make some rock sliders . they serve pretty much the same purpose and are much stronger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As stated, nerf bars are for "looks"; secondarily as a step up. And yes - wannabee ghey. 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJM/78 Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Leave the nerf stuff to the kids . However an alternative to steel , is the new fiberglass resin parts . Nock it if you want , but I've seen some of that stuff in action . That $#!& is tough ! Also doesn't weigh what the solid steel does , if your interested in keeping your truck light .

mfpdm Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Wow. It's a good thing the forum is here to save me from making my truck look ghey. I'll see if I can find some ghey person to buy mine and not put them on the truck. :roll: I've seen worst things around than a set of nerf bars on the truck. OP if you like the look, it doesn't matter what others think. Just if you wheel it, remember thier purpose and you will be fine. And yes, I like the looks and I'll have them on my build unless things change when it's time to put them on. :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Hey Paul, we are all here to help you from making the wrong decisions, although you haven't made any so far AFAIK. :D I put a set on mine I picked up for cheap on Ebay a few years ago (chrome of course); immediate dislike. Maybe black powder coat wouldn't look quite so ghey. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJs like to rust, nerf bars like to make trucks rust. bad combo...... (at least in snow&salt country) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelbyluvv Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Nerfs have nothing to do with making a truck rust faster. Aluminum running boards will though. There are not a lot of MJ nerfs left to choose from. You can easily get a set of 97-01 standard cab, short bed Dodge Ram nerf bars and modify them to fit the MJ. They will go from the front flare to the rear flare on a SWB MJ. I was going to go this route on mine. But, my plans changed and I went 97 instead.

And yes - wannabee ghey. 8) what i was saying is that both can be used as a step and a well built set of rock sliders can look pretty cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

88pioneer Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Dee-Zee- ... 3a5669d4d6 I personally don't like side steps on any truck, but here's a set i figured i'd put up, think there the ones hornbrod was talking about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJM/78 Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Thanks Chris ! The only thing I don't like about those , is how their welded to that flat plate . I would like to see a little more metal at that joint . Seems to me that they could bend or break at the joint . The plate is fine but it just looks like it could bend . I don't know ? :dunno: I'd like to see some opinions . Maybe a gusset would help ? Or are they made pretty beefy . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
possum Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 I have the stage 2 sliders on my LWB and they are less ghey than nerf bars. (They used my truck to fab the LWB sliders.)(JCRoffroad that is.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't know they were still around. They required drilling into the subframe and attaching w. self-tapping bolts. I sold them for more than I bought them for, so that's always nice. :D The JCR sliders are robust and look good IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
