We decided to provide a new product on the 100 series market since we had people ask for a sliders simmilar to our 200 / LX570 slider.
The formed sliders are always a lighter duty slider but still fully functional as a slider. That said anytihng can be bent if you try hard enough. The regular rectangular tube and round outer rail is definately stronger, but also comes with a weight penalty. Not everyone needs them, but some do.
We would hate to call them overland sliders, but that is probably their market. The mounting system is the same between both styles of sliders.
Non AHC sliders have three legs per side. We looked at the AHC system to see if we could do a single slider that would cover both cases, but then you have to start with bolt on legs and that complicates things and results into higher cost.
We do have the regular sliders availalbe for AHC trucks and no immediate plans to produce an AHC version. Sales numbers for prevcious AHC version sliders did not warrante bringing another SKU on board.
I guess we will see how these are received and then go from there.
The downside (or upside?) to the new formed ones are that they really do look factory. Unless you know what you're looking for, they appear to be an OEM piece of equipment. The beauty of the plastic ones OEMs make, but in a usable form of steel. It's an impressive feat.The formed sliders are handsome, they look OEM. I always thought AHC vs non AHC was just the matter of the center leg. It can't be chopped off to work with AHC?
I almost feel that way about my WK sliders. I really like the bump out though, I use it all the time.

Can't speak for everyone, but I loved the OEM steps from a functional daily perspective. The LX ones especially are amazing. The solid light tube thing looks awesome in the evening and the wide step is fantastic. My ideal product would be a Slee or Dissent made armored shell with the step width and lighting of the OEM thing.I did think it was really funny that there are literally thousands of post in the 100 section that either recommend removing or celebrate the removal of the factory steps / running boards .... And then everyone (certainly including myself here) gets really excited about a newly released slider that looks exactly like - well, a running board!
That being said, my wife drives an LX470 and if these newly released “overland” sliders were AHC compatible then I’d definitely cough up the coin.
So true!Years ago, I felt like people ragged on the "step sliders" for not being hardcore enough. Now, all I want is a big wide functional step that I can lay the car down on if I climb over a tricky rock.
I'm just getting old for sure, lol.So true!
Do you think we’re finally getting over the hype and just want something practical .....
Or do you think we’re just getting Old!!!
That's my thought too. I'd love to wheel my LC but don't have the time and need to keep it a low-key stock daily driver for work purposes and kid hauling. I'd love more protection than the stock steps but need to keep a very functional step. The previous Slee step slider was my best option but I think this is even better for my purposes.Can't speak for everyone, but I loved the OEM steps from a functional daily perspective.

Take a road trip to Colorado and pick them up on your way to explore Telluride? They come foamed into a gigantic crate, thats likely just what it costs to ship.Anyone ever figure out a good alternative for the shipping for these? Slee is quoting me $400+ to ship $1200 sliders - kinda nuts
What is the clearance on these vs factory steps? What about vs slider steps?We decided to provide a new product on the 100 series market since we had people ask for a sliders simmilar to our 200 / LX570 slider.
