Mount them on your roof rack. Dozen's of ways to do that. I got a set of Victory 4x4 rails and will be using carriage bolts with plastic knobs and washer spacers to hold down mine.

But I get it... money is money. But there's a reason we all get name brand suspension and racks and sliders and armor... because we want it to work when the time comes, and that name brand inspires confidence in the product.

Totally agree, but what about the guy who didn't drop one extra cent into his 4R. $300 would be insane compared to his 10k Synthetic oil change splurge and his once a year off road trip to a Natl park. lol
I see no issue buying a set of cheaper ones if your off roading is mild and your expectations are realistic (may need to replace after first few uses).
I will have to say this. After all the videos i have seen and what some have said. Having a set of "Maxtrax" is probably the best investment in recovery one can do, and maybe only second to a winch.
As a side note it appears the entire US is out of MAXTRAX... Well except for maybe pink. lol
