If you want bars that are strong enough to actually protect the
body, you do not want the standard 'nerf bars' that are literally made
of tissue paper. The term to search for at the equipment suppliers is
"Rock Sliders".

They are the industrial strength version that actually provide
protection against rocks into the rocker panels, as well as a step you
can stand on without bending, and a good strong place to tie down
stuff in the front of the bed. And they aren't going to come in
Stainless, though you might be able to get chromed ones.

If you do any moderate to gonzo off-roading, they're worth their
weight - a lot of rocks out there that'll jump up and bite you.
