Wow those look pretty good, those take place completely of the old rocker and bolt to the pinch seam and the sheet metal at the door sill you think?

I dont think that they do, I was under the impression that "rocker sliders" and "rocker guards" just bolted over the rockers. My issue is that the rockers are shot, so I need to replace them as well. So rather then putting new sheet metal in for the rockers, and then guards, I'm leaning to both in one, but we'll see.

The JCR ones bolt to the frame rails and pinch seam under the rockets. They don't replace the rockers or anything so you may want to repair the rockers before adding rock sliders or just do both, replace the rockers WITH a rock slider. Out comes the grinder, cut off wheel, and welder

Here's some useful info:
