Just finished my rocker sliders and saved about 300 bucks by building them myself. Here is a few pics.. they are made of 1/4" plate and will be tied into 2 possibly 3 body mounts and will have 2 points of the cage tied into them...

They have a 5" rise up the side of the Jeep CJ-7, on the front they go under the body 12" and the back 10", the total length is about 52" can't remember off hand. They are not welded they are bent... I have about 40 bucks in steel and about 15 min of torch time to cut them.. :D

Looks bitch'n! I made mine from 6"x6"x1/4" angle and butt welded 1/4" plate to span to the body mounts. Not quite as pretty as yours, but same concept. Work GREAT against rocks and a great place for Hi-Lift jacking.

mine are just like that...mine follow the frame all the way back to behind the rear most(of the three on the side) body mount...have you tried to mount them up yet??? If not expect to do a little cutting on the body of your Jeep...by the front body mount there is a lip type thing and the body mount is recessed up in just a little...when you look at it you will know what I mean...its not a big deal though takes about 5min with a cutoff wheel per side to fix it...goodluck and they look good:D
