    Do you have any more pictures from the side? I wanna see how low they hang down, as I don't want to lose ground clearance but I want something sturdy.

    Define "rugged".

    I opted for N-Fab Podiums.

    Personally, I like my victory 4x4 sliders as running boards, and they literally saved my ass when I got t-boned in my truck. Have to believe she would have been totaled without those sliders. As you can see, no loss of ground clearance. Also, I never replaced the slider after the accident and that's the side that got hit. They're pretty beefy DSC07530.jpg

    I don't yet. Maybe after church tomorrow.
    I would in no way call these sliders or super rugged. They are perfect for me. I drive down to and into a few creeks around the house. My girls catch frogs, turtles and crawdads. I drive it to work, the store, and church. I am not going off on overland 4x4 adventures. They are much tougher than the toyota predator steps. I don't expect to grind them on rocks or logs. I like that they protect the sides from door smacks, and rocks slung by the tires.

    I would love to get their sliders (and bumper) but then I'd have to wait longer and save up some more maybe that'd be worth it though. Did you get it bare metal or powder coated?

    Got them powder coated just to be safe with them. Could always just do rhino liner or something like that to get a pretty tough protective coat on them and save a few bucks

    I have the oem predator bars, I like them a lot. They aren't the strongest bars, especially if you are doing a lot of off-roading, but they look pretty sweet.
