Maybe they are all installed that way, I'd like to know. It just doesn't seem like two bolts in the end of the entire nerf bar would be all that strong.
also, I see that they are 3 inch bars, are some 4 inch? What is Westin?

The Westin bars are 3" also. Except for the ovals.

Here is how the Westins fasten....
The bolts replace the stock cab bolts but they are longer to accommodate the bracket for the bars.
Here is a pic of the front fastener. The rear is similar and then there is also a diagonal brace near the rear one as well.

I got mine off Ebay 4120 Plus shipping
Black powdercoat, went on real easy. The proof will be what they looklike in 5 years.
I agree Nerf Bars don't protect from debris. Maybe I can weld some diamond plate across the bottom
Happy holidays

If you cruise their site they have several styles to choose from and also a way to find a dealer near you.
