Looks like they are a bit cheaper on the actual site.

I just ordered some 4X Innovation sliders. They are too inexpensive to not give a chance. I got the dom, kick out, and an extra set of arms. Was around $360 I believe.

In videos that I saw, the sliders seemed to be strong enough but the frame would bend in on hard drops. So I got an extra set of arms with the idea that it will help spread the force out. From 3 areas to 4. I was also thinking about swapping the little squares for one big ass long plate to spread the force out all over.

There will still be frame mods to bolt on sliders to a 3rd gen - there aren't enough threaded bolt holes (or even just open holes) to bolt any sliders on without drilling more holes. Shrockworks makes bolt-on sliders, but they still require drilling (I welded mine on anyway).

you could take the weld on ones and weld them up off the car, buy extra plate steel and long bolts, drill holes through both plates and the frame, then sandwich the frame with the plates and bolt everything up.

I do not suggest doing that though. Just weld them on or pay someone to do it.

I ended up grabbing the 4xi sliders with DOM tubing and square tube on sale.

I do not see an extra leg option on the website, did you email them and how much? With DOM I kinda doubt an extra is necessary for 60”, on a longer Taco it makes sense.

The sliders themselves are strong as hell, however hard drops show the arms push into the frame. My thought was to spread the force over more areas / larger total area to minimize frame stress.

I called them, was $15 for a set which was a total no brainier. To me at least. If it doesn't work out, well it's only 15 bucks.

RSG metalworks has a black friday special going on Code : BlackFriday, so you can get angled full plated sliders to your door for 400. No way would I buy Summitracing sliders for 300 when you can get something actually made for your vehicle for 100 more.

The ones Summit is selling are from All-Pro Offroad, so at least they're from a reputable company, instead of just random unknown origin chines-ium stuff. I don't know anything else about them tho...

Interesting, but they have no specs on the site. Are these Dom?
