I will unbox and post more pictures shortly. Unfortunately my Bronco is at the Dealership getting the new hood seals installed to stop the whistle on the highway.

Everything arrived in excellent condition. LOD Offroad did an excellent job of packing and protecting everything. I don't see any chips, scraps, or damage to any of the pieces. These boxes were heavy and I am surprised they weren't more beat up by Fed EX.

Now I just need to get my Bronco back so I can install them!

The sliders are about 81 lbs each plus hardware. They are shipped in seperate boxes, and one slider box contains the hardware, the other is just the slider.
do you have a discount code?

It's much more convenient to do it online...

Thank you LOD for getting them shipped out got here in a day.


Fedx guy was kind of a wuss he left them in the front yard next to the street. These are definitely the most stout rocksliders on the market right now for the bronco. I ordered a right hand drill from Amazon for a one time use (plan to return it after) to hopefully not need to take off to drill holes. Will find out tomorrow, I do like them.

Not sure if this is only a problem for my OBX since it's a mall crawler :sneaky:

The supplied M12x1.5 bolts are not the correct size for the nuts welded into the frame. They are the same size as the bolt that holds the gas tank strap which appears to be a M12x1.25. Unfortunately I was excited and in a hurry and ended up cross threading the supplied bolt. I assumed it was hard to tighten due to undercoating on the threads since I don't have the gas tank skid plate. So now I have to remove the remains of the broke bolt and re-tap the welded nut. :mad:

So for anyone else starting the install, I highly recommend you double check the welded nuts in the frame with the bolt from the gas tank strap. If that bolt threads in easy, then most likely the supplied metric bolts are the wrong thread pitch and will need to be replaced. Hope this saves someone a headache!

I did the same thing with that bolt I thought it just had paint in the threads till I got half way and was like wtf.

Maybe I installed it wrong but whatever I do the brake lines rub that bracket and the bottom of the tub. It has extra insulation on that part of the line but I'd like it better if it wasn't touching anything. Im going to notch it out a little, shouldn't hurt anything it's gusseted really good.

I confirmed the bolt size is 12mm, but the thread pitch is 1.75 NOT 1.50 so if that is what is in your hardware kit DO NOT use them.

Well that sucks. Yes for anyone else please double check those metric bolts. We will investigate on Monday morning and can get replacement bolts sent out right away.
