I might be interested. Never been there and very new to wheelin. I've got a 4in lift on 33's. no rocker protection right now unless I get my rubi rails on before then. Think I would be able to make it??

Oh yeah you'll be fine. Rubi rails are easy to put on. Do you have the hardware? I can put them on for you that morning if you do before we take off. 10 minutes max.

Nope you don't need nuts. :)cheesy: ) They just attach to the holes in the tub that are threaded already.

And I'll add you to the going list now. :thumb:

So I just went down and threw on the rails to see how easy it would be and the holes aren't threaded for the screws on the rails. Do I guess I'll need to get some bolts??

The studs that pass through the pinch seam need 10mm nuts. I don't know the thread pitch off hand, but I used some standard Honda 10mm nuts I had from a civic and they fit perfect

I think pre 2012 is different and needs part D from install instructions on this page. Step 1 shows how they install http://www.quadratec.com/products/12112_221_07.htm

Sorry I don't know the technical term or how to link just the PDF from my phone.

Thanks for the link!! I'm going out today to try and find the clips and nuts. If I can find the hardware the rails should be easy to get on. Just trying to figure out what they are. Seen ppl call em j clips and nutserts 😑

My stock clips had a threaded nub on one side. I bet the dealer has some

The nub side sat pointing toward the top of the jeep. Used the big hole to position the clip so it lined the threaded section up with the smaller hole. The PDF gives a decent example
