I'll have them on for sure not sure if I'll have them painted by the weekend though.

Sal those sliders look great.
well done Steel Armadillo
Very Cool! Those things look tough!
Here is a photo of the optional step for the Super Sliders that I took with my cell phone, the production version will be welded from underneath so the weld do not show.

Yeah, I like those.
I like the steps that you added to the sliders. I think the only thing I dont like about these sliders is how they don't wrap around the rockers underneith the doors like the 4xguards do. Other then that, nice job.
I am playing with an optional dress-up kit that would cover those in the future. There are some advantages to the 4xGuard such as the one you pointed out, but on the other hand the 4xGuard does not have the side bar or step option, it all depends on what features you want most.
Looks good. You can usually tell the quality put into the design of something by how much effort they put into shipping it!
Driver side is done!!!!!

lol sorry to hear that man..... how the hell do you keep her around then? hahaha
My sense of humor I'm really not sure I ask her that all the time LOL
Just some FYI I did put my floor jack on the tube section of the sliders dead center not the flat section under the jeep but the tube section that sticks out further then the jeep and jacked my jeep up. I would consider this the weakest part because it sticks out the farthest I got very little movement on the sliders. I was very happy with how they held up being stressed from this point. keep in mind that my pinch weld and the area they mount to where already banged up. So my install will be weaker then anyone else that installs these with straight sections of metal to mount to. I hope I'm making sense.
thanks for all the compliments guys, we had A LOT of research & engineering man hours into this final design, i'm really glad to hear you like the product.
mistakes were made, there were some sacrifices & someone rode on a trailer... but we figured it out

that picture is not a joke or photochopped - i really had to tow jon's jeep during the build. that old ford might be ugly... but she's got heart!
Put in an order for 3 more sets today and at least 2 of those will be for the WK.
DANG!!!! those sliders look good!!!!! Man, i want a set soooo bad. i guess I need to start saving my pennies, lol.
You know, the area of the rocker that you can see between the slider and the door really isn't that bad. I guess I one really wanted too, they could trim the plastic rockers to fit in that gap. But that would probably take a while./
All done with the install sliders are on and looking sick.
A shot of the brackets underneath

Huh? How do those mount? Is there no blts to the pinch weld?
No there are no bolts to the pinch weld. The pinch weld sits in the channel on the brackets. There are three of these brackets and two brackets one in the rear and one in the front on the outside above the pinch weld total of 5. Not sure if I can explain it right here but the way its designed it does use the pinch weld and rocker and pretty much a lot of the jeep for support to make it solid. I jumped up and down on the tub and I'm 200LBS and that's the weakest part of the sliders they never moved. I also jacked the jeep up from the center of the tube which is a lot of pressure in a small area and they didn't move again.
I can't wait to see thee things slide across a rock at URE this weekend! LOL, don't take that the wrong way Sal, LOL.
I picked up my set of Super Sliders from the Powder Coat shop today!
