Im looking to buy some sliders soon. I was originally going budbuilt or demello hybrids.
I saw that white knuckle sliders were added to the comparison list. I did a search and couldn't find any information on them good or bad posted by forum members.
Does anybody have these? How do you like them? pros or cons.
Thanks in advance.

thats a great design, looks like a good alternative to the all pro kickout!

Oh crap, I thought I already posted the install on this site. Sorry guys!
I got the Heavy Duty sliders from John at White Knuckle about a month ago. John provided excellent customer service and was a pleasure to deal with. The sliders were very well packaged and included the bolts, washers, parking brake cable relocation brackets, instructions, as well as stickers. At 110 pounds, the UPS man made a comment about the package being the heaviest of the day. =)
The sliders bolted up very nicely and should do a fine job to protect the body. they also double up as a nice step, which was important to keep my wife happy.
If I had to do it all over again, I'd get the same sliders, except I'd pay john to have his powder coater guy bead blast the sliders to cut out a bunch of manual labor in prepping them for the paint job.
Upon opening the box:
Nice welds:
Plastic wrap removed:
Few coats of Duplicolor self etching primer after a thorough cleaning with a wire brush, coarse scotch-brite pad, and a wipe down with acetone:
Another view of the pretty green primer coat:
Few coats of VHT Rollbar and Chassis Epoxy paint in semi-gloss black:
