I just ordered my sliders from Demello Off Road. They are located in Riverside Ca. and are made for the KDSS setup. They are bolt on or you could weld them. I think they will be going into fabrication next week and should be ready by first of February if you order quick. 608. and change with powder coating.

There are hydraulic lines and bits on the outside of the driver's side frame rail. The slider mounting plates have to allow for that.

Yes. See this thread for some details. Or see my pictures as I run them with KDSS. Had them for three years and they do great

I've got a set on mine. I like the look, they fit well, install was super easy (HeftyFab installed for me ;-) ) and the cost was in line with everyone else.
I haven't 'used' them yet, but it's hard to imagine they won't hold up as well as any others.

Thank you.
4x4 Labs all day...
I have to admit, the 4x4labs does seem like it offers the most protection but, it's just way too pricey for me. Nearly double what I'm looking to spend.
Thank you MasonCO. Those look great!

They were kind enough to install them for me instead of ship them! Located in western NC, caught them on a trip down to my parent's place for Thanksgiving one year.
A word on any sliders with treadplates which are not continuously welded. Save yourself a rust headache and fill the gap between the tube and the treadplate with black silicone while the sliders are new. Water gets trapped in the small channel created there and it will rust because even powder coat doesn't get all the way in the crack. I had to use a rust converter for touch up 1.5 years after I got them installed. I then laid a thin layer of silicone on top, and a thick bead on the bottom. I don't wash all the nooks and crannies on the underside of my sliders very often, so better to protect it from road salt sitting in the slider.
