    Thanks man, I do not offer these in a bolt on version at this time, maybe in the future.

    The website should be up soon, It sucks having to wait on someone else to build it. I should just learn how to build it myself LoL...

    Kick-outs for the win. I'll be modifying my sliders to install some kick-outs to avoid this sort of thing in the future...

    Nothing wrong with allpro. You just have to know what you are gonna put them through. If you plan on rockcrawling then something else might be better...but for me and the OP allpro would be fine.

    That guy with the bumper picked the weakest possible point to jack from and collapsed the bumper. Completely his fault, but All Pro still fixed it for him and released an update on their future bumpers to compensate for customer stupidity.

    I honestly feel that they're a great company and like their products.

    They are a great step for getting into the Truck, provide much needed protection not only from rocks and other off-road obstacles. But the asshole who parks to close to you at the store. Now gets a bent door instead of scratching your nice paint. As well as all the other miscellaneous objects that may fly toward your trucks undercarriage...So what are you waiting for? buy them already. lol

    so the AllPro's stick out far enough to protect from id10t's dinging your door?

    If so, that is a selling point all by itself.

    4xinnovations. They have a good reputation, they are a good price and I believe they can add on kick outs at no extra cost. I plan on getting 4xinnovations sliders too myself.

    They pretty much all stick out enough to prevent cars from dinging you. None of them really would help against another high vehicle though.

    anyone want to post photos of how the sliders look as if you're looking at them from the front of the vehicle. Would like to see how much different sliders stick out from the cab. thanks.

    Even for some heavily rutted mud, they aren't a bad idea. My sliders kept me from rubbing my rockers. Then again I was stuck at this point and had it not been for the demello's, I might have had a little more weight on the tires.

    Mine are Demello rockcrushers. Square tube and make a good step too.

    This area used to be used by a brick manufacturer. They would prop up the roadway with defective bricks.

    We went back there again today and my sliders kept me from running the side of my truck down a rut. Rut started about 6 inches and kept dropping deeper as it went around a turn leaning my truck further and further. Backed back out of it and you could see a 2 inch smoothed line on the side of the rut.

    In addition to pioneering the most functional kickout design (not all kickouts are created equal), ours also now have the best mounting structure:

    And, as mentioned before, we also offer dimple-die cut fill plates for the tops. Our sliders are the most trial tested for over 15 years now!

    I love my AllPro's. If I had any comment I'd say they came a little too close to the body. I had to notch my press seam as it was hitting when all was said and done and driving me nuts.
