hey guys, so i’m working on my 2011 F150 super cab and need to talk rockers. those plastic ones are alright, but man, they just don’t hold up all the time. I recently ripped one up off-roading, and now I’m wondering if there are better options out there.
i’ve seen some folks swapping out for aluminum or heavier-duty ones. but, will that really make a difference? I mean, if I’m gonna pay more, it better last longer than my last relationship, right?
and what’s with those aftermarket kits that promise the world? i got scammed once by a “guaranteed fit” deal, and let’s just say, it didn’t fit—like trying to put a square peg in a round hole.
if anyone’s got experience or recommendations, hit me up. i could really use the help.

But some claim the plastic can be easier to manage for repairs. Each has its pros and cons I guess.

But I mean they do make my truck look kinda cheap.
