JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

The welds look good. I've had them for almost 3 weeks so I can't comment on the long term durability. As previously stated they have a lifetime warranty (even when taken Offroad, unlike the vehicle they are attached to) so if there was a problem no big deal. I'm 6'5" and almost 300# and I jumped on them with no effect. Their American made and supported, can't go wrong getting a set.

Is this seriously a competition? Way to become a douche

I believe if rubi rails can take a rock, then anything that has more than a couple bolts holding it on will do fine.

Here are mine and I cant wait to test them on the rocks.

Oh...and its spelled "shiny"
Please don't be a dumb ass. All I'm pointing out to the op is the fact I have used mine. Absolutely punished mine. There is more to conceder in purchasing sliders than looks and price, but functionality as well. The EVOs look great, and work great and I didn't have to drill into the body to install them.

Oh ....and it's spelled "our"

Im not hardcore,
And I don't hold hands.

No body drilling on my LoD's either. I didn't even tap the holes into the frame (per WOL's write-up) - just welded them on. (I can get pics later for anyone wanting to see.) I definitely considered the EVO's too, but liked the step on the others.

Lol....Originally I was looking at the Shrockworks or the LoD. I'm sure both will hold up as well as others also. But I do know there are sliders that will not. Not all sliders are created equal. Your not a dumb ass. I fell passionate about my sliders simply because they have held up so well.

To the OP, good luck with your purchase.

Passion is good

I did not mind drilling as I wanted rocker armor as well. To me that's not a bad thing, even with EVO you need to drill for rocker armor. I am sure my brawler rockers will hold up well, and have better clearance. Its all trade offs
