I'm liking Doc's sliders too. How far do they sit in comparison to the stock plastic? Wondering if Docs version will gain us any clearance at the rockers...

Not worried about his work I know it will be stronger then the super sliders for sure. The wife says I can't be trusted without sliders any more LOL so I would prefer to get docs setup over the super sliders.
I was thinking about this a bit today.... I love where you and Doc are going with the sliders, but had an idea to make them a bit more useful and "different". It would be really cool if there were two platforms (per say) that would act as good steps, then connect the platforms with the tube to complete the "side" protection. By platform, im envisioning something that would provide good grip in all weather.... that way if you're wheeling in the snow (well, for some of us) and want to get something off the roof from the side, you have a nice stepping point.
..Or, in my case, a great step for kids that'll be getting in/out of a lifted XK
Try a different color....maybe body match the color.....

Does Doc have an estimate on a finished product? I can't go wheeling until I get something.
