    Does anyone have rocky road rock sliders. I would like some input on these. I am aware they mount to the pinch weld.

    If they bolt to the rockers then they aren't really sliders. People will argue that they can jack up the vehicle by the "slider" but what will happen if you come down off of a rock and smack them with a dynamic impact?

    If you want sliders for rocker protection then get something that attaches to the frame.

    I appreciate the feed back and I had already read all the post on this subject and was trying to find some one who has actually installed and used them off road. I can't find any real world test of these sliders. I do like how they are mounted up high and out of the way.
