I love them! No issues at all. Yes, I went with hrew. I got advice on prepping and painting too and it's held up exceptionally well and they clean up nicely. Happy with this purchases by far and for the cost, you can't beat it.

What are you all using for paint? I went with some Rustoleum bumper paint and it didn't work worth a damn. Any ideas? I love my sliders but I want to keep the rust away and keep them looking decent.

prepping the sliders is key to a long lasting durable coating.

Here is my recipe for success:
-buy a hi temp heat gun, spend the $20 at harbor freight for one. trust me.
-Rustoleum Rust Reformer as a BASE coat
-Rustoleum Hi Temp paint
-Rustoleum bed liner spray

i used two cans of each except the bed spray, i had left over from painting my roof rack. only need a little of that for texture so kiddies will not slip off

one hand spray the rust primer inhibitor.
one hand hold the heat gun at high.

you want to spray and then quickly dry it with the heat gun. this will make it bond and dry ASAP. waiting for paint to dry is like poking myself in the eye, fun lol.

repeat until done.

note: light coats, no need to layer it on since you are really really speeding up the drying process by using a heat gun i noticed i would lay it on thick and it would run because i was impatient and hate waiting for it to dry. then try to move it when it was wet.

hi temp paint next. same process. its high temp so you will see the paint dry!

then i did a few coats of bed liner on the top for grip. you can sprinkle sand on a thick wet coat of hi temp also. but i had bed liner spray so why not. caution bed liner spray doesnt like to be heated as hot as the other two paints. bed liner will bubble when hot LOL.

here's the paints


here's a shot of my sliders at the front passenger side behind the front right wheel. this is where all the rocks and road debris will hit it. been almost one month and 2000 miles, no off roading yet though. idea is to show you how durable this paint is. i didnt apply bed liner to that area either. thats just dirt, no pitting, peeling, rusting etc

Thanks for the help! I'm gonna spend a lot of time priming and painting these, I don't want to have to redo them every year. And luckily, I just picked up a heat gun

Yes, very true. I used the POR15 and then rock guard over that.

Thanks for the help @gshadow325 and @Mytoy4 ! Got these in this weekend and put on a coat of rustoleum. Will finish that up and add bedliner next weekend when it isn't 100% humidity.

And after learning to weld as these went on yesterday, I can definately appreciate the quality of the welds in these sliders. @traxman25 , these rock.

With the standard 6" legs, how well do these sliders perform as protection against door dings in parking lots? (2014 Runner)

Question for owners: Do these interfere with getting in/out of the truck?

I had a set of sliders on a previous truck and they frustrated me with having climb in/out OVER them/always brushing my leg against them (not good in work clothes). However, those sliders were angled up, not flat like these. If these don't get in the way, then that's good news.

You can weld them at any angle you want or cut the arms shorter to have it stick out less. It's basically all up to you and how you want them.
