Rock Sliders

[Matt]

FWIW, one of the major appeals to the 4xG sliders is their fit & finish. Their quality and form are such that they could easily be offered from Jeep (and yet it bet Jeep wouldn't have been any better).

The cheaper/generic sliders I see for other vehicles on the market get the job done, so they score fine in terms of "function".... but lack if "form & fit".

While I would love for the 4x stuff to be a bit cheaper, ill give credit where credits due. I'm sure they could whip together a cheaper/generic slider like the Rocky Road version.... but I don't think that's their style. 8)

Thanks, Matt. You're right that it isn't our style.

As for the fact our stuff could have been offered from Jeep ... well, if you ever get a chance to look closely at the official test rig that Jeep/Mopar runs on the trails, you might see something familiar.

The style shouldnt be about making a lot of money fast it should be about pleasing your customer and growing the company to get more products out there. I'd love to be able to run their products but the prices just arent reasonable for me considering I had a full bumper made for 400 which to me seems kind of rare to have something custom made cheaper. If i could put 4xGuard on my car and get stuff at a cut cost to get the name out in the area I would but that doesnt seem to be their style.

Something I have never been clear on, what are you protectig with the sliders?
The outside of the pinchweld, the inside, or both? When I had mine made, the
welder did not know what he was doing. I am sure he did a fine job welding, nothing
has fallen off, but he didn't know what he was building. I wasn't certain. Looks like
the sliders in the first pic are outside the pinch and reinforced by tying it into
the frame. More Pics!!

They're protecting the side & rocker panel area from rocks. The pinch weld itself isn't a big deal... but if you're sliding on the pinch weld and then skoot off to the side, that rock is going to tear your vehicle apart. In the case of the XK, the damage could prevent you from opening/closing the door properly.
