Exactly.
 






I do and they were free. I just had to get off my lazy good for nothing a.. and go spend 2 hrs making them:D
 






Nope, my rockers can't get anything but straighter from now on anyway.
 






I want sliders but i dont have access to a welder right now. but soon, soon i'll have some. :D

That would be too.
 






Where is the "I have them, but haven't had a chance to use them" choice? :(
 






just bought the material yesterday, so i'll be making mine in the next couple of day just in time for moab :)

hopefully the $60.00 i spent on material will save me more money that would be used on body repair

Yeah! Where is it huh? :p
 






i do.. but not to keep it pretty. they are functional. they protect, can be used as a jacking point, a pivot point on big rocks, and are just fun to have!

I would build a set if I had the welder and the place to do it. My wife would want me doing it in the kitchen

I got em on my truck! Its the best $26 I've spent!!

The last trip I was on, they kept my whole passenger side off of a 30 yard embankment, remember that one Jason.
 






I have 'em on my Zuk. Cost a whopping $24.

Doug, you're gonna have to come out here and spend a weekend (when you have some cash :D) so we can outfit your truck with some armor so those nasty trees and rocks can't bite :D

lol yep.. up one of the many roller coaster style hill climbs!
 






I have them and have used them many times, there are scars underneath them to prove it :D . Sliders are one of the first mods I made. They have done a good job of protecting the rockers but in the future I will be making some new beefier sliders that stick out farther to also protect the side of the body more.

I can do that. Just need to know long enough in advance to get the proper metal ordered.
 






I'll let you know when i'm feeling weathly again.

Mine were a good investment of $35 bucks in steel and some time. They are used almost everytime I wheel.
