    Yeah, I like them. I've landed the whole weight of the truck on my driver side slider and it barely gouged the metal.

    I doubt I'll ever dent the HREW. But if I did it again I'd go with DOM. Just for peace of mind. But with something like weld-on sliders it would suck to dent them haha

    Then there's the whole deal with deciding how far you want the to stick out. Mine are as far out as you can go with the legs they provide and I can get the angle that I put mine at if you want. You have to take into account how much the cab may flex, if any, so you can still open your door if need be.

    Glad you mentioned the cab flex! i woulda never thought of that. I want them to hug the body as much as possible, and i want them to stick out far enough to keep me off trees. But at the same time i don't want to expand the width of my truck to much as I've been in several situations where if i had been a few inches wider i wouldn't have been able to get through.

    Ehh we have a few pretty easy trails/service roads, then we have beasly knob OHV which pretty much requires full skids, winch, lockers, and sliders.

    Yeah, mine are pushed out but nothing crazy that would effect width enough. I think mine fit up with the body of the truck pretty well. I'll post some pics when I get to my computer in the morning.









    And scenekyd, I'll get the angle for you today.

    Alright so the angle my sliders are at is 18*





    Here are some pics of what it will look like if you leave the legs as long as you can with the sliders at an 18* angle...
