Metaltech usually does a good Black Friday sale, as do maybe a few other vendors.

White Knuckle are awesome! I have them on both my 100 and 60. If you wait a few more weeks, they usually run a black friday sale. They aren't the cheapest option but will last a long time and are very stout! I haven't read a single bad thing about them.
I got DOM, reduced angle, partial diamond plate, and powder coated since I don't wheel my 100 as much anymore. I think I paid $978 shipped for this combo including the sale which was good for $140 off but this was in 2019.

I’m a super picky SOB and haven’t found any sliders that combine all the features that I like.
The shape of the WKOR sliders with the kick out looks great and gives a nice standing platform to reach the roof rack. They are also designed to work with or without AHC and with front mudflaps (like all of them should be, IMO).
The full top plate on Slee’s sliders and overall tight fit and finish give them the appearance of a factory piece. Their 200 series sliders are even better, shame they don’t make them for 100’s.
Owl Expedition and Cruisin’ Off Road made the sexy wrap around frame brackets, good luck getting your hands on a set of those though.

If you can't wait until BF, I believe WKOR has a thread here on mud where they have a mud discount, it's not much but if you want it now...

Thanks. I think I can wait.
+1 for WKOR, I got the full length cover. Looks great and functions great.
I built my own. Still in the process of building the LC so don't have a picture with them on, but had them on before the powder coat and they look amazing.

I initially wanted the ARB side steps but those aren’t really sliders. I like the Slee sliders as well the base slider is made out of square tube and I wanted round just like the ARB. So I ended up reaching out to a local guy here in Las Vegas who does sliders, his name is Cameron and he custom-made me a pair. Everything said and done including paint, it was a 1k.
90° orientation, functional step bar for kids and wife, slider-rated, around 50 lbs for the pair.

I just installed the Metal Techs. Can't speak to the off-road capabilities at this point but they look great and tuck in well. They do have a 10ish degree angle but there is enough room to stand on them to get to the top.
Another vote for MT. I beat the heck out of mine and they are still doing the job. I have also placed the jack under them to lift the truck.Metaltech has served me well and paid for themselves many times over. I'm fine at this point trusting them on he trail as a tool around difficult obstacles. The price seems almost double what they once were, but that is the times we're in...

The metal tech ones are almost perfect, they look great, they provide enough kick out without being too fat and sticking out way too far like some. I’ve had them for years and made an install thread for them years ago.
Unfortunately, the two leg design really doesn’t hold up to hard wheeling. I know I’m not the only person that deals with this, as I often see other owners laying on their back after a trail day adjusting them. Without welding them on, these will not stay fixed in place when taking a hard hit. They will slide up a 1/4” and then rub against the body of the cruiser. No matter how tight you make these u-bolts, these sliders will shift upwards. Part of the problem is the holes where the u bolts slide through to anchor the mounts are too large. These holes allow just enough room for the metal u-bolt to have play and eventually you will hit them hard enough to shift them up. Granted I probably wheel harder than most, many people may never have an issue, but these sliders would greatly benefit from a 3rd mounting arm or welding them into place.

WKOR here, easy to install, quality and fast shipping.
I went with BIO, Bumpit Offroad and am very pleased. It was a year ago but they were $575 bare and I painted them. Fit perfect and would highly recommend them !

If I was to design sliders for the 100, I'd offer more protection for the front fender. When the front wheel is turned in one direction or another and that same tire slides off a rock, bam... fender into door.
A quick web search for 12 Degrees North, took me to a site that seems to tell me all of the wonders of “Rocky Road Rock Sliders”?
