    So you'll run your rig as is?? No gears or sliders?? I'd realllllyyyyyy get sliders for lander man..but you might be okay due to the short wheel base.

    No worries man. I'd go for sliders if ya can. I think you'd be okay maybe without em..but I won't stand by that. Will depend on your lines and driving ability.

    4xinovations will be the cheapest by far. They are a vendor on here. Ben has them on his rig too.

    Trail gear next but idk if theirs have kick outs.

    From there your looking at pretty pricey and long waits.

    Not true.

    Hybrids are stronger and slide better due to smaller surface area. Looks is a mute point since as you said it's under the truck.

    It's a performance thing to me.

    Mainly a personally thing too tho.

    IMO, the value of hybrids is overstated. And most people like them for their looks.

    I have to agree with this. I'm not the hardest person on my sliders but I have leaned on them on several occasions and my non-hybrids have stood the test.

    The value of the hybrid design in for the hardcore rock crawler. One who is going to slam down hard on the slider. About 99% of us do not fall into that category. You may however. :cool:
