Which nerf bars?

If it's about Power Wagons, all generations, this is where it'll go. This is the original PWR Forum Power Wagon Technical Discussion Section. And this includes everything that doesn’t fit in any one of the other categories related to the truck goes here!

My truck won't do and serious off-roading until it's paid off so these are great for now. I plan to build a set of sliders eventually but these will serve my purposes for the next few years.

Got any other pics? How much lower do they hang down than the body?

Thanks for all the compliments, I'm really happy with them so far. I just ran out and measured and the bottom bar hangs about 4" below the rockers so you lose a little clearance but not really any more than the nfab or similar steps. One thing I do like about them is that the hang out far enough to stop most door dings and stray shopping carts. They also deflect most of the gravel and stuff that my front tires throw. Only being cab length doesn't really affect my usage because I have a trifold bed cover so I'm not really reaching into the bed much. I think if I had a toolbox I would want wheel to wheel steps to make accessing it a little easier. The only other picture I have is one towing my toys. Not sure if it helps but I like showing off so here it is LOL

Thanks for the info. If you get a chance could u get some close up shots? Also how long did it take to get them? Amazon says 1-2 months before they ship. How do they mount?

Been looking at these for a while because of the price but I've been hesitant to pull the trigger.

Yes, I'm interested in these also. Seems the only bar that's out of stock is for the dodge 2500 crew....ugh

Here are the close up pics, not sure what detail you're looking for but I hope this helps. I was actually looking to buy mine right before Christmas when they went out of stock and there was no information on when or if they would come back. In February I saw them back in stock so I ordered them immediately. I received them in about a week with standard shipping through Amazon. They mount in the factory holes in the rocker and it was a pretty simple install. I did have to drill 12 1/4" holes but they are hidden and not hard. Supposedly 2012 & up trucks already have these drilled but my 2012 did not. U just used the bracket to mark the holes. Very simple.
