Tomken Machine 2x4" rocker protection???

[Paul B]

I'm looking for opinions & pictures from anyone who's gone with the Tomken Machine 2"x4" rocker protection.

Thanks in advance.

Bought them used. They have taken some heavy hits, just scratched the paint, and are great for pivoting around big rocks in tight spots. I just modified the mounts to compensate for a 1" body lift (thxs for the help Trango). Here's a pic from our Sat run:

Hey BoulderBob, nice TJ. How did you modify the mounts? I've been looking at these skids too, but I want to put a 1" body lift on.

PRS - it was pretty easy to modify the mounts. Went to Den-Col supply and found the scrap steel I needed for this and some other projects at $.28/lb. Welded 1.5" square channel pieces at the front of the existing Tomken supports, raised one inch and backed up with welded in angle iron braces. The rocker guards line up better now with the flairs than they did before the mod. You'll have to come on one of the weekend runs and check it out.
