I wanted more ground clearance on the sides and a little more height when standing on them. Albeit, I'm 6', not a problem, but my wife is only 5'-1". She needs all the help she can get.

Awesome, those are the ones I’m eyeing. I was looking at your rig and trying to determine if they were the 20 degree sliders. Gonna get em today. Thanks!20°

I got the RCI 20° sliders without the top plate. 20% off at RCI right now. And “T4R” coupon code. Thanks for everyone’s recommendations and advice.

Pictures when you get them!
Appreciate the info, understood about the OEM question. I’m planning on the Expo One’s but a bit squeamish about the install as the guide didn’t make much sense to me. The link says front and rear bumper but it’s for the rock sliders. Any thoughts appreciated.

I'm sure they'll send you some instructions; if not, contact customer support. Also, let them know about the typo so they can correct it for you and anyone else.
Yeah, those are the incorrect instructions, see instructions for the GX460 here. I will say that the most difficult part of the install is gently moving some of the brake and KDSS lines out of the way in order to mate the sliders to the driver's side body rail. The help from an extra set of hands or 2 makes all the difference.
How’s the weight as you get them in place? I think I remember reading someplace they’re 80lbs. each.
70-80lbs each from memory

Holy Cow!!!
What are they made from, Tungsten??
I don't recall my sliders being that heavy, either the MetalTech or my new ones.
I dig the look of the Expo One sliders, OEM style, subtle, clean. Big fan of Slee and have run his products in the past but I think the Expo One sliders have theirs beat for the GX in terms of aesthetics. I am considering these for our GX but those WKOR are very nice for a tube style.
Pulled the trigger on the Expo One’s for the Taco. 10-12 weeks until delivery then install at a local shop. It’s a mint but ideally “worth it in the long run”. I do love the look of ‘em.
