and how heavy duty are they?

It worries me a bit. But would love to see the tests. For that money, they'd better be good rock-sliders...

But I'm not testing them on mine.... Twisted Evil In a time of chimpanzees, I was a penguin.

Justa a few questions......


1) Wich would be de difference betwen a Sill and a Rock slider....
A "sill" ..... ¿is just a protection?
A rock slider shoul be in iron instead of aluminium?...better a plate?

2) Has anyone tested this sills?

3) Any comment of experimented users?

4) can be used a Hi-lift with this Sill?

4) Is it worthy or better go for a Rock-slider.... like OFFROVING or SLICKROCK?

Thanks Nacho
