Finally Frame Mounted Sliders from LOD OFFROAD!!!

[LOD Offroad]

As asked in previous post, is drilling required?

Looking forward to seeing these powder coated.

You will be able to mount these without drilling. There will be additional holes for drilling and adding bolts which will be recommeded for trail use.

Coming soon to a Bronco near you! Frame mounted sliders are prototyping as we speak. First up is our ever popular Destroyer Series and Armor Lite Series sliders. We'll also be following up in the next couple weeks with our heavy duty Signature Series! All are bolt on and guaranteed to work with underbelly skid plate system also in development! Stay tuned for more photos!

THANK YOU!!

Those look fantastic , the front is almost like a train stop , I would like them tapered at the front as to hanging up .

I feel like @LOD Offroad is purposely avoiding the two door question.

Yeah, not really sure what we are going to do yet. Its going to depend mostly on market demand whether or not we produce 2 door sliders. That and actually getting a 2 door to prototype on... We have a couple offerings for the Jeeps, but the demand is very small compared to the 4 door.

That's fair, sometimes it's just not worth the time and effort to a company. It will be to some company though. The flip side is that I tend to find a manufacturer that offers what I want and like and equip the vehicle with multiple products from that one company. The decision could be a lot more valuable than a pair of sliders. Just kicking a different angle out there...

PLEASE take the front taper on the signature series up close to the front edge of the body so we can easily close off that gap to the bottom of the flare and prevent rock chips on the doors

no one making sliders is doing this yet

Depending on where you are in Indiana and how long you needed a 2 door Bronco for, I might be able to help with providing a 2 door for fitment..... I have a 2 door OBX. But I have no desire for a slider with steps. My main problem with steps is, I don't need or use them, so getting out of the Bronco constantly gets my pants dirty because they are in the way!

I'm too lazy to check again, but I didn't see pricing. Let me guess, too much for too little. They look a little bulking and slightly unrefined, I see it's a prototype but you probably need to trim the fat.

Final prototypes! Should be going to powder coat early next week!

I really like the clean look of these and bonus for frame mounted, but I just ordered Go Rhino steps/rails. Please tell me these are going to be north of $400/500 so I don’t have to feel any remorse.

I think a big question on the 2 door slider is getting around the gas tank issue. Not sure how one is going to bolt to the frame without dropping the tank.

Probably about 350 ish... give or take.

Thanks for the offer! Columbus is a bit far, we are near Lafayette.

Unfortunately i dont thing there is an easy way to close that gap. On the Jeeps, the front fender is flat across the back side which makes it easy for our Destroyer and Armor Lite models to come close within a 3/4" of closing that gap. This blocks 99% of the debris from kicking up the side of the Jeep. The Bronco fender is different, it is higher, rounded and angled up on the back side which makes it impossible to close that gap. Our sliders will help, but a mud flap would do a better job at keeping the side clean.

 

[LOD Offroad]

All of our sliders are frame mounted, there has to be a minimum of about 3/4" gap between the slider and the body. This is to account for the slight flex in the slider, and the body roll on the frame. It also helps because the body is not perfectly centered on the frame, we see a lot of this with the Jeeps. If the slider is too close, the body will move into the slider and get damaged. It doesn't seem like it should, but the Jeep body moves a lot relative to the frame!
