Looks great! Are your sliders angled at all? Any regerts with them? Would like to pull the trigger on some BB's soon, but can't decide on step vs rock with kickout. Looking at all feedback. Thanks!

These are the BudBuilt slider steps that go straight out. I love them, but as @Taco2Cruiser hinted at awhile ago, for off road, flat (especially with a kick out) is just too much metal sticking out down low. I would encourage you to get BudBuilt's angled rock sliders with the kick out. My first day with these out on the trails had me wanting angles with a kickout. I went flat for toddler, wife in heels and my mother with a bad ankle, but other folks have said those situations are fine even angled.Looks great! Are your sliders angled at all?

200 favorite Rock Sliders
very helpful, thorough thank you. So i was just on BudBuilt's site and see they have 3 options. What is the difference between these 2: Bolt-On Step Sliders | Land Cruiser 200 | BudBuilt Off-Road and these?: Bolt-On Rock Sliders | Land Cruiser 200 | BudBuilt Off-Road are the "step sliders"...forum.ih8mud.com
