    As an off roader what was your first ARMOR install?
    In my opinion rock sliders are a MUST first mod, especially when hitting off shoots and technical trails. Let’s discuss ha.
    Which rock sliders are you running?
    Are they bolt on or welded?
    Kick out or no kick out?

    the purpose to this thread to bring product awareness and help those who are in the market for new rock sliders!

    Let’s keep this a friendly discussion ❤️

    I’ve got the metaltech 4x4 sliders and they saved my ass within a week of install.

    If you’re rock crawling or dealing with deep ruts, its a good insurance

    I like the look of these, however it looked like the gussets would be a major trap for mud/snow/water. Hard to tell exactly from this video though.

    I've got Mobtown Offroad bolt on sliders with a kickout.

    Their use of DOM tubing and claims of "Strongest Bolt-On Design On The Market" also watching the bolt-on's get lifted with a hi-lift sold me on them.

    They are also the closest to me (East Coast).

    SOS FTW! With kick-out and top plate. Was my second purchase after an IFS skid. The oem OR ones got pushed up into the the crossmember/arms and was making an awful sound. Had to remove to get off the trail. First hit destroyed them. Rails hold there own and can high lift off them.
