Victory 4X4 Rock Sliders

[70 FJ40]

I'm thinking of getting some sliders from Victory 4x4 for our truck. These are the only ones I've shown my wife that likes the look of well enough to want to spend the money. Since it's her daily driver she has to like the way it looks.

I have not been able to find any reviews or anything else about them. May have missed it in my searches, but I don't think so. Has anyone purchased these? How's the fit? Are they tuff enough? Have they held up well?

I haven't seen theirs. I looked on the site but couldn't find them. Can you post a link?

Sliders are pretty easy. As long as it's actual pipe (square or round) you're probably OK. I wouldn't trust any that were just bent/ formed sheet metal. At least, not as anything more than just a step.

That is a nice looking slider.

If it was welded plate to make the shape, I'd probably feel OK bashing it. If it's thinner sheet that been formed, I probably wouldn't. I'd want to see like a 3/16 wall thickness. No experience with Victory, so can't speak to their products specifically.

Front bumper, was misaligned and had to have them send me another one- Twas a huge pain in the rear with install 2x etc. customer service was good but I don’t think the product as as nice as others out there.

Thought I'd report back.

I went ahead and bought a set of these sliders. I liked the look of them from the pics on the website. I never could convince myself I liked the tube style sliders on the 100. My wife even less. We've owned the truck for over 10 years and 110k. Always wanted to get sliders for it and finally have. I bought some ASAP mudflaps from @Ramathorn15 years ago in anticipation of ditching the factory running boards and mud guards. They've been sitting on my shelf, waiting, ever since. Got those put on as well. What an awesome product.

Website said 6 week lead time. And they shipped out to me at just over 5 weeks. They are stout and heavy. Made out of 3/16 steel. I think they look great.

I'm really happy with them at this point. Time and maybe wheeling will tell how they hold up.

They look awesome!

I think you need black lug nuts or black lug covers but otherwise sharp ride! I like the way the sliders look a lot. Good choice. Hopefully they perform.

They look awesome and stout, you’re the first I see with them. Do they stick out enough to use as steps ? Sliders are next on my list but they’re so expensive now. Btw I have the same centercap stickers .

They are wide enough for steps. They actually stick out further than I was expecting. Wasn't sure I liked it at first, but it's grown on me and that will actually help keep the truck from damage.

Where did you get your centercap stickers? I got mine years ago from a guy in Ukraine. They're starting to get pretty sun faded. I'd be surprised if I could still get them from that same place.

I got mine from Amazon, it’s a thick sticker the same material as the ones that goes on license plate year/month. Do you know how much the sliders weigh?

I don’t have any Victory stuff but they are an hour away from me and I have toured their shop. Nice people and all of their fab was done in-house including powder coating. I get the feeling their target market is the millennial overland crowd and not folks running the Rubicon every weekend. I would buy from them if they had something I wanted though.

Website says they weigh 150 lbs. I didn't weigh them but I'd say that felt about right when I was installing them.

I can't seem to find anything on their site. I put in my year and make and nothing thats vehicle specific comes up.

Their site search doesn't work very well. If you follow the link I posted, it's easy to find them that way. Or a Google search works better than their own website.
