My wife and I have had these on our rigs for over a year now. After a year of trails and rock crawling, I’m not as impressed as I initially was. These “medium-duty” sliders dent and bend too easily on rocky trails.
Rock Slide Engineering makes a 3/16” skid plate that fits over their step sliders and I feel like that’s exactly what these need to convert them from “medium duty” to “heavy duty” sliders. I plan to try and straighten them out then weld on reinforcement skid plates underneath (either directly to them or as a reinforcement cover) to help them hold up better on rocks. I’d like these to last 5-10 years and mostly maintain their original shape. I like them enough to go this route rather than just getting something else.
