There is no drilling involved, and I suppose you could weld them on, but we designed them to be fairly easily removable, like the stock sliders (but wayyy more durable)

Sounds exactly like I would want if I was designing them for myself.

New pics look great, can't wait to see the Youtube vids.

This system provides more than enough strength to make a great functional and durable rock slider. We will discuss this more and show some of the testing when we release the Youtube video for these bad boys.

Please get these out soon! I've been holding out for 2+ months to see if these are for me. Sure seems like it! At least get a preorder and some dates going!

They are now in production and are being stocked before becoming available (most likely towards the end of the week)! Just a little more patience! This time we are trying for super short lead times. Here's a picture in the meantime!

Am I correct in assuming those mount onto the body mounts?

I want them, but need to see the prices.

What about lighting options?

We will be developing a two door version also, but it will be at least a month or two before those. We are trying to gauge demand and get these going first.
