LX570 Slider Recommendations? (8 Viewers)

no, I didn't realize there was a fit difference.

There aren't many between the LX and LC, but suspension is one of them. Just behind the running boards on the LX are the hydraulic tubes and reservoirs for the AHC suspension.

Budbuilt does not have a slider for LX570.

Interesting. I didn't realize there was a fitment difference between the LX and LC for sliders.

Yup, the LX has a bunch of gizmos and doodads mounted to the outside of the frame rail, making it a lot more complicated to fit sliders compared to the LC.

Looks great! did you install them yourself? And what did you do with the running board lights?

Yes, was an easy install for me. Did it by myself. The "hardest" part was trimming the running boards, which was easily done with a makita oscillating multi-tool.

I took the running board wiring and used solder/heat shrink connectors (heat gun) to connect them to an led strip. Tie wrapped the strip to the bottom of the sliders, and it also works great. Nice and bright.

I'll try and get a pic of it lit up at night.

Edit:

Here it is:

Are you saying the Slee sliders won't hold the weight of the rig if you pivot on a rock or do something similar? Ideally, I need something to use a hi-lift on in a pinch and lean on to overcome an obstacle. I don't plan on hard-core rock crawling, but there is always the unplanned rock or stump scenario to prepare for.

FWIW, here’s a video of me letting the sliders do their thing at Moab. They’re just fine

Right on! That's all I really needed to see TBH!

I have the MetalTech4x4 sliders (with step) for my LX. They are beefy as hell. But a real challenge to get installed.

TKO. They don’t stick out too much and are good for a step. Not too noticeable or loud if you will.

Did you trim running boards or add LC rockers?

Trimmed running boards. Running boards that were pretty crunched up at that.
