Very nice looking. Is it just me or should it have a couple more holes in the body to spread the force of an upward impact out a little. There are 5 holes and hey line up with the 5 welds on the plate. Going from the picture in my memory I believe purejeep uses several more. I know similar rails were very popular on TJ's... Anyone ever have problems with them that you know of? Like brian_crystal said, the plate makes these the third version of the rails to be released by Mopar all based off of the same design. I like the look alot but I'm worried about how it attaches. The Jeep logo would look sharp in Red Rock showing though the cutout in that plate.

Exhaust rotting through? It should be stainless...What kind of acid do you wash it with?

Those photos were from 4wdandsportutility.com, where they were doing a writeup on different Mopar accessories...I'll try and contact them to see if they can tell us where those rock rails came from.

Those rails are actually first-gen, maybe even pre-production. The current enhanced rails are not attached to the body, but are Rubi rails with tubes ( I have them). I really don't think you are going to find a set of these, that was an old article.
There are plenty of after-market options that will be better anyways
