trail gear sliders???

I see a few of you have rock sliders from trail gear. Are you happy with them? Any problems with either fitting them or abusing them?

Re: trail gear sliders???

Hey, cool, thanks. I did a search for "trail gear sliders" and I don't think that one came up. Gotta love search engines. Seems like that should have been the first one to come up! Looks like we will be happy with them.

Re: trail gear sliders???

I love mine. They stick out far enough for door dings to not happen and serves well as steps to get in and out. I've abused it pretty good and they are holding up.

Re: trail gear sliders???

Love mine and install is super easy. Holes line up perfect and the welds are baby-butt smooth. All you have to do is re-position the brake line. Easy, easy install.

Red face Re: trail gear sliders???

I used to have predator step bars, but I'm deciding between trail gear sliders or Metal Techs sliders (not sure if they have one but I swear I talked to Mark and he said they have one?). The two reasons for not going back to the predator bars is because 1) its mounted to the body and not the frame like the sliders 2) the gap between the two steps can be a pain trying to slide over logs and such.
