I’m curious about the mounting of these. When I installed my Destroyer sliders, it called for drilling a few more holes. Do the mounts for these sliders use the same holes? Also, will they interfere with underbody skid plates in the same way the Destoyers do?

EDIT: Answered my own question regarding drilling by reading a bit. The interference question still stands.

Yes they do use the same mounting holes, although the mounts are even more robust!

So are these "drilling optional"? The Destroyer instructions state the drilling is optional, but necessary for full strength. With the new mounts, there's really no drilling, not even optional?

They are very similar to the Destroyer mounts, just stronger. The mounting points are the same and there will be the optional drilling for additional bolts if you plan to bounce them off the rocks.

Oh man, I'd pretty much already decided on getting LOD sliders and bumpers, but this news sold me on them! Hoping we see aluminum Front and rear bumpers too. It's all about keeping as much weight off as possible.

We're getting closer, hopefully posting pictures soon!

How do the Destroyer Sliders interfere with the Underbody Skids? The stock skids? I am saving up for the Metal Cloak skid system so will it affect those as well?

You’ll have to look at the frame mounting points. There have been threads here where people have had to make modifications to on or the other to deal with those shared mounting points.

I have the LOD destroyer sliders and the MC skid system. Works fine. They do share mounting points but you can overlap them.

Thanks, I feel reassured

In your opinion what order would you install? Rock Sliders then Skids or both at the same time?

The Aluminum Bumpers that are in the design phase - Can you flat tow from the front as you can with the Steel front bumper? I assume it will have an optional skid for the bumpers as well. Thanks

Sliders first. Make sure and drill the optional hole near the front. The sliders will push into the body if you rock crawl and don’t do this. Also need to use washers to space it away from the frame. (Front side only)
