Depends on how hard you are going to use them. They only have a single bar, and I bet they are not even close to the 120 wall that is on the OEM's.

good point

Looked into them as well... I think they are for show... some guy on another forum bent the hell out of them.

You got a link to that?

Right now I don't think you can get anything stronger than the OEM rocker bars. And frankly I think they look better than the maniks anyway.

Most manick products are for show.Do not think they will protect you vehicle or stay box nice!

The OEM ones are heavy. Like 50 or 60 pounds. They are heavy duty and two bars not one. The OEM steps that go into them are very nice and they can be taken off in about 5 minutes.

I have slamned down on the OEM's before and wipped off the dirt with no problems.

We need to start a donation for WannabeH3. If everyone just gave one dollar he could probably pay for the rest. I will start with a $10.00 donation.

Help the young starving students that live in the 4th most expensive city in the USA. How are we to pay for chicks, beer and off-road accessories without your support. Dial 1800/give2h3. The fist 100 callers will get something. It's a surprise but they will get something. Email me if you would like to send check or money order directly to him.

Dial NOW!

Go OEM

H3 Hummer 12-21-2005 03:03 AM

So do I have you down for $1.00?

H3 Hummer 12-21-2005 03:05 AM

WannabeH3 is so cool.... I will donate one of my rocker bars to him. He can get out and switch them on and off when the going gets tough. Wow, that rhymes.

I have slammed hard on the OEM bars and as previously stated, no problems. I looked into the maniks but the guy from Manik said they're more for show.

Any up close pics of the factory rails?

Edspad 12-21-2005 03:57 AM

How much to Fab your own?..pro/cons. I was kind of disappointed of the cost 500+ for factory bars.

500.00 is well worth it if your going offroad.

Any idea on the wall thickness of the tubing? how much do you think they weigh?

hmrlvr 12-21-2005 04:37 AM

120 wall is what was posted up the page, whatever that means, They probably weigh about 50lbs. Two people to put them on and no problem.
