Best sliders for an 80 - opinions wanted

[XXXR]

I gotta give Mik credit for the big balls he's got for posting an avitar with mug like that.

Mickey rubicon, you are definitly intitled to your own opinion, but don't try to insult everyone in here by saying that people that have sliders must have a lack of off-roading knowledge/skill.....That's when everyone takes it personal......

Forgive my ignorance.

I believe sliders are intended to replace running boards?

What is a slider? What is its function? Why does Toyota furnish FZJ80/LX450 with running boards rather than sliders?

1. Protecte expensive, weak sheet metal
2. Ease getting in

Sliders are better at #1, running boards are generally better at #2 (their only intended function).

Toyota supplies boards because they are lighter, cheaper and serve the average user better.

I did a comparison. Hanna has larger dia tubes than Slee. Both are nice design and Slee has a step version for the pink panities I think.
