Schrockworks is no longer in business, they screwed over a bunch of customers. There is another bolt on out there, don't remember who, but it costs like 750

Here’s a really good testing video they put out:

4x Innovations Rock Slider Drop Test - HREW vs. DOM vs. Square Tube - YouTube
Is the DOM square tube for the tubes that connect to the frame bracket?

I ended up changing my mind and shortening them. I originally measured when I had spacers on.

That's what I'm doing this weekend to the just arrived 4XInnovations DOM sliders, I figure that I'll be shortening them 5-6 inches -

I'm also regretting not angling them... But, they work really well in the rocks, both sliding against /over and kicking the rig/rear out.

If you play in the rocks at all, have a good strong rear bumper, I use 4XI plate bumper, and add rear hoops to keep your rear quarter panels & taillights minty.

The demise of Shrockworks was handled poorly indeed, but when they were active they had good prices and communication and decent lead times. They also had one of the only bolt-on angled-up rails on the mainstream market. You can hardly tell they are there.

Link to sliders:
AllPro Offroad AP-306627 All-Pro Off-Road Rock Sliders | Summit Racing
Just pointing out that these are now listed at $509.15.

Quite a jump from $310 just 18 months ago.

I don't/can't weld so bolt on would be preferred. I do know a local welder/fabricator though so If welding is needed I can get it done if it makes financial sense. Any input it appreciated.
Why not just look for some bolt-on aftermarket step bars if you don't need sliders?

I'll never knock anyone for taking the "lockers before light bars" approach, and I love having sliders, but it sounds like you're going to spend a bunch more money on these than you really need to. Just some food for thought.
