Slider Options for 2 Door Wildtrak

[CO_wildtrak]

Been looking to get a set of sliders for my 2 door Wildtrak and figured some insight from the community would help.

I’m looking for something functional as a rock slider that also has a tube that can act as a step, to make getting in and out easier as well as protecting from door dings in parking lots.

I’d initially ordered the Havoc TrailCrawlers but had to cancel my order due to national back order. So now my options are:

1. Goat Fabrication - 2 Door Rock Sliders w/ pinch seam blackout plates
2. Fab Fours - 2 door rock rock sliders
3. N-fab sliders (though not sure if available in 2 door config)

Has anyone out there installed any of these? What have been your experiences with them, and would you recommend them for what I’m trying to accomplish?

Personally, unless you are actually rock crawling, I'd opt for the lightest sliders you can depending on how much static weight you are adding to the bronco. HOSS 2.0 and 3.0 are position sensitive dampers, which means any 'sag' in the suspension pushes the dampers out of their ideal range into a different 'zone'. There are 3 zone for Hoss 2.0 and 5 zones for Hoss 3.0. I don't have my bronco yet but I think HOSS 3.0 has 'revised spring rates' for the purpose of keeping the dampers in a better position (nobody seems to know how they were revised though).

I plan on going for mostly aluminum armor (or thinner steel) myself. Most of the trails in Montana barely require armor and when impacts occur it is mostly on the sliders vs skid plates. I have no idea what Colorado is like.

I picked these up and love them so far... seem to be well built, though I haven't tested them as sliders yet.

I have been searching for a while. To be honest, I don't like the look of the side-steps and the auto-steps are way too expensive. I went with the stock Ford rails that come on the Badlands. They look the best and seem to be the most functional and cost-effective.

Shrockwerks has frame mounted sliders and can be used as a step

For a functional slider, step, rock throw and door ding protection I ordered the 2 door step sliders from RockHard 4x4. They mount to the factory body and pinch seam locations and add two mounts to the frame body mount locations. They are mounted high covering the pinch seam and maximizing ground clearance.
I haven't received mine yet so the Photo is from RockHard 4x4.

Thanks for your post, I am going to check on Black Friday for a few items including those. May I ask why you went with the C3 Heavy Armor over the C2 Defender? The C2 looks like it'll give better protection from rocks since the plate goes across the lengths of top and the width is 7.5" v. 5.2".

Honestly, I liked the look of these better. After getting aftermarket tires and mudflaps, the rocks no longer pelt the Bronco, so I didn't feel that I needed that extra protection.

Thanks, I'm going with mudflaps too, and if there's a good deal on them tomorrow I may order some; getting my black Friday list together.

Do these mount to the frame or the body?

Looks like you’re in Colorado, I’d recommend you take a look at RCI.
