Does anyone know how out the TeraFlex Rocker Guards are going to stick out from the body...?? Also anyone heard an ETA..?? Thanks





.

 

well, they look like they stick out as far as the flenders do (possibly a little farther than a shrockworks rail, and far enough to use as a step, if the aren't slick). i haven't actually seen or heard of anyone receiving these yet.
i think i e-mailed tf a couple times back around july or august, but never got an e-mail returned, so i forgot about them. i tried to inquire about them at a 4wheelparts store, about the same time, and they told me that they weren't available yet and hadn't received any time frame at all. but that was a few months ago.

 

They do stick out as far as the flares and work as a step and keep the junk off the sides. For as light as they are they are very strong. I've used mine to pivit of and have slid down side hills into trees and they haven't dented at all. They are a little scarred up from running the rocks but nothing a little krylon rebuild didn't take care of.

 

Well, what I can tell you is that if you are interested in these rocker guards, wait just a bit longer to get them. I have been working with TeraFlex doing some long term testing and punishing them on the trail. And, after providing them with some feedback, they are going to be making some really nice improvments to it and will ultimately release a 2nd generation design that will be much better. In fact, I have already seen the CAD drawings of it and hope to post some pics of the new prototypes soon.

 

Here's the E-mail I got back from Tera..

Hi Jay. Our rock sliders stick out 3.5''s . I think 3 1/2'' would be enough for a step, and you could lift one side with a high lift. These sliders can take it. I hope this info helps out, thanks for your interest in Teraflex.

-- I hope they are the same width or even wider..
WOL- Can you tell me what they are improving..??

 

Does anybody have more feedback on these sliders?

 

Rick Scott says he thinks Late Spring/Early Summer is about when they'll come out.

I had asked him about the flat topped sliders because the wife refuses to put up with tubes anymore.

 

Would love to know what the improvements are. WOL? TEEJ?

 

I kinda like the idea of these over a tube type slider....I was set on the PSC rocker knockers, but alas, I am finding myself changing my mind so often....which is probably ok, since it will likely take me months to get them once I decide anyway.

So TF, when can we get the "new and improved" version?


EDIT: Now...the Fab Fours sliders are HOTTT.....but nearly $1000? I mean come on. :P

 

Any word yet on what the improvements are?
