All Pro Rock Rails – Extended Use Review

All Pro Off Road rock rails have been on my Toyota FJ Cruiser for over 2 years with lots of trail miles. For those considering rock rails here is my impression of the performance of these rails.

Left Rock Rail

I short, the have performed very well. Having the rail under the rocker panel is critical to protecting the FJ’s body work and the All Pro does a good job of this. I have used the rails a sliders a number of times is situations where the FJ had to move along a rock that was under the running board. I have also drop the FJ on this part of the rail when coming off a rock and the rail held up well.

All Pro has a second extended rail which provides LOTS of additional protection. There has been numerous times where I have taken a line that puts the side of the FJ near a rock. Having the extended rail has giving me additional assurance that if I rub the rock it won’t be on the body work. I have felt the kick out that the rail has push the rear of the FJ away from rocks as they slide past.

The extended rail also provides a good step for access to the roof rack. When I installed the rock rails I applied non-skid tape to the rails and this has really helped prevent slipping.

I used Rustoleum Hammered paint to finish my rails. This has worked well making it easy to touch-up the trail damage.

If I was in the market for rock rails I would definitely consider All Pro as a solution.
