Default Rock Sliders

I am interested in getting the Olympic Double Tube Rock Slider Bars.

olympic4x4products.com/side-protection/271-double-side-bars

To make it easier for my wife & kids to get in, I was thinking about mounting them in the 'down' position. I have tried to find the specs on these to see how my clearence I would lose this way. Does anyone have these bars and know about the clearence?

Thanks.

I looked at those before I got my LoD, and couldn't find any info either. The reverse piece made them look real appealing, but I also couldn't find how hard it would be to change them before I went wheeling.

Look forward to seeing whatever info you get on these.

+1, changing before wheeling would be impractical. I personally like them facing up flush against the body.
How much do those run for?

I wish the repoir and shipping times from Shrock works were better I would go with those. I like the Olympic with the turned up bar too. There are so many choices!!!!!!! I like the EVO ones too. . . It is never ending

Shrockworks slider came in pretty quick for my dad, it's his bumper that is taking AGES.

And you're forgetting those PSC sliders. Those are cool too

I do like the look of the LoD's but they seem Pricey. That would take away from my bumper budget.

So far i am leaning towards the LoD front bumper
