SDHQ Slider Measurement Needed

I'm interested in some SDHQ sliders. Before I shell out serious cash, I'm trying to find out how far they stick out from the Taco frame in the door area. I want sliders that will double as door-ding protectors in my tiny apartment complex parking lot.

The folks at SDHQ scoffed at the question and told me sliders aren't intended to prevent door dings. lol.

Anyone have a set they'd be willing to measure?

 

You got that response from them and still want to un them? Damn

I suggest @Mobtown Offroad sliders. They know exactly how much they stick out from the body.

 

'cause they are some nice, light sliders.

 

Second the @Mobtown Offroad sliders. Those guys know their products

 

I need light sliders for my 4 banger. The SDHQ sliders are a great design and weigh 45lbs each.

 

The problem is the way asked seems like he’s a competitor, I have the sliders myself and I told him already they have prevented plenty of door dings but that’s not what they are intended for.

 

You also told me yours aren't the same design as the production model. ...How does one ask a question in a way that sounds like a competitior?

Geez, not sure what the big deal is, CBI gives specs for theirs: 14" without kickout and 17" with. I just want to buy SDHQ sliders, FFS. Is it so wrong that I want some specs before I shell out $1200? So what if I want the sliders to prevent door dings in addition to being sliders? This was America the last time I checked.

Demello sliders must be special, 'cause they can be used to prevent dings:

"Our sliders use all grade 8 hardware and require minimum drilling. Bolt on sliders can be bolted on with out drilling but if you plan to use them as sliders we recommend drilling the extra holes. If you just want a step or use as door ding protection then using the factory holes would be sufficient. "

 

Here I’ll tag some owners for you and see what you get mine only differ in the legs the tears are made out of. @JerryTaco @tubbsisland @Logistics91 do your sliders prevent door dings?

 

I appreciate the effort. Thing is, I bought some MBRP sliders and was told they will stick out enough to prevent dings by other forum members. I got them and they didn't stick out past the edge of the door. So I'd like an actual measurement before I go through that BS again, especially at $1200. How hard is it to stick a tape measure against the frame and measure to the edge of the slider?

 

Mobtown has some aluminum sliders if weight is your concern.

 

The SDHQ design is legit, and I want steel.

 

Then just buy them if your so set on them. Why ask us?

 

I guess you didn't read my OP.

 

The company treats you like a joke, and you still want to do business with them. You take no other options from people offering them. It’s not that popular of a brand on here so I doubt many people even have them. I know I didn’t even consider them and now I know about the customer service I defiantly won’t.

 

Bro, opinions are appreciated, but an actual measurement is all I need.

 

Good luck hope someone comes through for you.

 

I'm not a good example. 1. Larger tubing, 2. different supports 3. original prototype.

 

13.5 inches from frame rail to outside of slider with about a 1 to 1.5 inch kick out. They are tucked tight and clean, mount end to end, are lighter than most and will protect against most door dings... unless brodozer giant lifted truck parks next to you, then all bets are off

 

Thanks, guys.

 

buy sliders from all pro. they will provide better protection for your doors. The mounts are also stronger than SDHQ's.
