Quote from: Smac on December 06, 2010, 07:46:51 pmFought with my new rock rails all day yesterday, and I have to admit defeat. they are still in the jeep and not on them.... I did however pick up my new rim today. Too cold to swap it out and put the spare back on the back.Tomorrow or the next day it will be time to pull out the grinder and make the rails fit. Come hell or high water I will have them on before the weekend. I don't know if all rock rail installations are difficult, but mine were. Had to cut away the pinch seam on the frame, grind out the bolt holes, and of course bore into the frame to make the holes, which took me leaning on my dad's shoulder for all I was worth just so he could punch through the metal with the drill. We put each rail up on the floor jack (in place), marked the holes, then drilled pilot holes. IMO, 2 people makes the job easier...and it still was challenging!
