Rock sliders are supplied by a company called Offroving in the USA. See
http://www.offroving.com/
There is some good footage of them in action on the site plus some of the other stuff they do in driver training.
I imported them at great expense but if you want tank like protection from the chassis rails all the way around to the door sills and the steps, they are perfect. They will support the whole weight of the vehicle at any point so they say, and now I believe them Life is short...get it dirty...as often as you can.

You can also get low profile slider from forum member RLD.
Hardly noticeable when fitted and by all accounts work like a dream

Hi Tassierob,
I am also interested in the Offroving Sliders. They complement the ARB bar very well
Could you please provide details of the process of obtaining the sliders from Offroving.
Some questions come to mind:
Did you get exempted from US taxes?
Payment method & exchange rates conversion?
How was the kit delivered air or sea , shipping charges & insurance costs?
Aussie import duties & GST any suprises?
How good are the fitting istructions & the ease of fitting the sliders to your vehicle?
Regards
Steve
