LX570 sliders- gauging interest (1 Viewer)

[Cliffordbf]

I received my shipping notification yesterday and the tracking shows delivery date for tomorrow. To say I am excited is an understatement!!
When I spoke to Christo a few weeks ago, he mentioned the optional light kit is a plug-in to the factory harness but the above pics look like they will need splicing...

Wow, these look really nice. I figure I've procrastinated long enough and called slee (got VM) to get on the list. Hope it's not too long of a wait.

2 lights per side. If you take your harness that come off with the slider, you can cut it and splice the lights to that and retain the plug and pray.

That's not bad, right? Are these same sliders available on LC?

Fits the 200 with an add-on hardware kit.

I don't see it on your website...link?? How do you order one?

When installing on LC200......do you need to touch the KDSS lines at all?

Is this a slider or a step?

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: i have to get on the list here?

It’s a really nice side step but doubt that will handle the same abuse as typical sliders. Can you lift the entire side of the truck with them?

Btw this list has nothing to do with Slee. I created it to show other fabricators that there was a market for LX570 sliders.

I assume you could lift off of it, but I’d let Slee’s team respond. I know they’re not meant to be the strongest slider out there for the 570. It’s a combination of protection, aesthetics, functionality, etc. See post #21 below. As far as typical sliders, there’s such a wide range. What are you referring to as typical (ARB, TJM, Slee, TT, Bud Built, etc.)? If your typical slider is the strongest, heaviest slider out there, then no, it’s not going to be as strong as those. But, I would assume they’re much better than ARB, TJM or some other “typical” commercial sliders.

Some notes on these sliders. We made them to be functional, but what 20 years in this game has show me is that somewhere, someone can damage or bend them. This was not made to be the strongest hard core slider ever for the LX570. They were made to provide protection yet still be visually...

You sure can. No flex. No creaking. No bending. Nada.

Man that jack looks close to the door. Very close.

please email info@sleeoffroad.com to get on the list. We are working our way through our back order list currently.

No it is compatible with KDSS.

Is this a slider or a step?

This was made to be both. However there is limits to everything. We tried to make the mounting system as robust as possible while working around the AHC components. We have some customers that have been using them pretty hard for more than a year and they have survived fine.

EDIT: i have to get on the list here?

No, we maintain our own back order list. As mentioned the OP did this thread for a different reason.

I gone through the whole thread but didn't see the cost for the sliders. Since the first batch has gone out, how much did end up costing per order?

 

[radman]

The sliders are $1185 per set, the LED light kit is $49 and the optional AHC skids are going to be somewhere between $200 and $250.

 

[Madtiger]

I got on the list for the LC. Probably at the bottom of the list.

Just to give everyone an idea of the wait, I went on the backorder list through Slee on 30 OCT and received and email today that my sliders will ship in 2-3 weeks. So 3.5 months or so. I am in Colorado Springs so I made a service appointment to have them installed at Slee.

Just logged in after some time and this is the best I have heard for what seems ages

 

[sleeoffroad]

FWIW, as of today, everyone on our list has been emailed and we have sliders available for those we contacted. Shipping in 2-3 weeks. From now on this will be a stock item.

I'm looking for the instructions/write up on removing the LX steps and cutting them... My Slee sliders should be ready very for me to pick up very soon. I did some searches but came up empty handed. I know were a couple revisions on "the best way", I'm looking for the most recent.

It took a couple of months of being on the waiting list, but they finally came this Friday. This is absolutely a DIY job - but it wasn't without challenges. Also, be warned: this is dirty job. My truck had probably 3-4 pounds of mud underneath. I can still taste dirt. My hope is that this...

Did one side tonight to see how it went. Super easy. I left the cut long to trim once the sliders come in. One note would be to clean the area well before you start, a ton of crap fell down.

I may take some pictures/video when I do the other side..
