As I posted in the TAG Fender Flare thread, I pulled a bonehead move and now need new step bars. Anyone have any pics or feedback on this Olympic Products step bar? https://www.quadratec.com/products/13116_110X_PG.htm

If you're looking for a no-drill step, I have these and am pretty satisfied with them:

That looks just about strong enough to keep the shopping carts and errant car doors away.

Yah, yah, they're not true rock protection, I guess. But I've got them and I like them. What sold me was the 'no drilling', it's a perfect step from my passengers and Amazon Prime. As Jerry states, it keeps people from dinging your Jeep. I wouldn't travers any crevices or do Moab w them but I don't do anything extreme or rock crawl. They serve all my uses well. Had them a year here in the NE snow, no rust or issues....yet

Not every Jeep is a rock crawler or needs to be protected the same way. Buy what works for you and what's in your budget and don't worry about the haters.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I do more mountain trail riding than rock crawling here in GA. I liked the option that I can flip them as needed and when the step side is down it's easier for my wife to get in and out.
While I might be faulted for constantly pushing for stronger/more damage resistant rocker guards by some, it's only that I've had several different sets of less "worthy" rocker guards plus the rockers themselves get dented and bent even before my TJ started spending so much of its time on rock crawling trails. I'd rather be found guilty of recommending products that are stronger than required for some needs rather than recommending products that are only strong enough for some needs.

Thanks @Jerry Bransford. That's why I asked. I need good honest feedback. Olympic 4x4 Products is Made in the USA and I wanted to see who had used their products before and what the thought of the product and company.

I agree with you @Jerry Bransford, the right parts for the right job are always best. I just see too many over built Jeeps, and I really hate to see people spend money they really don't have on something they really don't need.
