Well I know I have come down on mine pretty darn hard.. like front tire falling off an obstacle and hitting the rocker on the way down. No visible damage as of yet.
Rubicon rock rails
Hi All,
I have a quick question. I picked up a set of Rubi rock rails for a song (thanks Chris) and am using them till I stop putting money into my camera and start putting money back into the jeep. My question is, how much abuse can these take before giving up and damaging the body? I know they are body mount and can be proned to fold inward into the body but has anyone really pounded on them. I just want to know so I don't push to far.

I welded tubing on mine that angles upwards, and kind of creates a lever action on the stock rails. I have fallen on to and slid over the tops of rocks with them, and pivoted off rocks and trees and they are holding up great. No damage to the body from them pushing into it either.

Sweet good to hear. They should tide me over until April when I can get my poly ones.
