Re: Rock Rails, Manik Loses Big time!
 

I wonder what Manik would be willing to do. I wonder if the see this as a cosmetic item or an actual piece of protection. If they sell it as protection then they should do something for you. A rock rail should not be a one trip, disposable item.

Re: Rock Rails, Manik Loses Big time!
 

I was wondering....does anyone have the Manik Step Bars along w/ the Manik Rocker Rails? I do and talk about a design flaw! The stepbars have to be mounted to the brackets before the rocker rails are. So yes..in order to just have the rails on, you have to removed both steps and rails then reinstall the rails. Talk about a PITA! I haven't even put my stepbars back on since Paragon (Memorial Day).

I wonder if the guys at Manik realize the F-k up?:mad:

Re: Rock Rails, Manik Loses Big time!
 

Guess they are starting to wake up and realize their accessory pricing is way out there. I asked them to match that price back in March and they said no :mad:


I haven't put mine back on since Tellico in March :p
Tired of hearing the bitching from the GF though :(

Re: Rock Rails, Manik Loses Big time!
 

Done deal:D

I just made the plans to go up early and let Rocky-Road have the rig for a couple of days to fabricate and design a set of rock rails for it. Can't wait. This also means I will be in Moab on Friday, not Saturday for those who need to know.
:rolleyes:

Re: Rock Rails, Manik Loses Big time!
 

Update from Manik.

They did call me back. Their response was that the Manik Rock Rails were built as "decorative items only". My response was they are not martketed as "Decorative Rock Rails" and therefore I was under the assumption (we all know what happens when we ASS-U-ME:eek:) they were rock rails, not decorative tubes.

Long story short, they are sending me a set of the 2nd generation taillight guards free as compensation.

So if you want a decorative tube under your body, get the Manik tubes. If you want something that works, get the OEM or wait a couple of weeks and Rocky-Road will have a version of tuff rock rails fabricated from my rig:D.

Re: Rock Rails, Manik Loses Big time!
 

That's got to be one of the dumbest things I've heard in awhile. Almost as bad as simulated beadlocks. Maybe Manik will bring us a faux e-locker next.:rolleyes:


Nice job. I feel like this forum is really starting to push the aftermarket for the H3 offroad. I wonder what will be left for Amstar when they finally get their act together.

Re: Rock Rails, Manik Loses Big time!
 

WTF is a " decorative tube " glad you let them know you tested them ;) :D they should call them " Mall Tubes " :p

Re: Rock Rails, Manik Loses Big time!
 

No $hit:eek:

Re: Rock Rails, Manik Loses Big time!
 

Cool!! :cool: Can't wait to see them.

Kinda figured you'd get that response from Manik, :rolleyes: but at least they offered you something.

Re: Rock Rails, Manik Loses Big time!
 

If they're sending you the chrome ones, they better send me mine
first. ;)
I've been waiting since like March to get a replacement set. :mad:
On the first set the weld was in the wrong place on the driver
side one. Talked to them a couple of days ago, now they should
come when I'm in Moab. I wanted them for the first time I was in
Moab.:rolleyes:

Glad they offered you something, but jeeeshh decorative rock rails - Glad your truck survived the Rubicon
