New LR3/4 Slider Option

[ChesapeakeRover]

The guys over at Rover Racks have come out with some new sliders for the LR3/4.

Here's the specs:

Made from 3/16" Carbon Steel, with the option of getting them galvanized for $100 more.

They cost $899 and you can add side steps for $199 or $299 (Galvanized).

Now, here's the cool part I learned after emailing them and I quote:

"No drilling is required, they protect the compressor tank, and they can support the entire weight of the truck... "

Here are a couple pics:

(There is a plate that goes in conjunction with the sliders to protect the compressor, not shown here though)

*And I just wanted to say I have no official affiliation with Rover Racks, just a satisfied customer trying to help out some cool guys get some more options on the market.

Looks interesting . . .
Is that your vehicle w/them?
Is the compressor plate extra?
Do the sliders bolt to the frame or the sill?

Looks like a good design. Price is not too shabby either.

So up to $1399, plus the compressor skid? Not bad. I like the fact that there are more options.

Not my truck, got the pics directly from Rover Racks.

I believe the plate is included, that's just an older picture before they installed the plate.

It looks to me like they bolt to the frame, which i believe is what allows them to support the whole weight of the truck.

No I don't think so. The frame sits inboard another 6 or 8 inches. These sliders bolt only to the sills, where the factory KIT running boards and nerf bars attach.

that's what I was thinking . . . only the RS Sliders (that I know of) bolt to the frame . . .

And my bad, the frame is obviously bare in the picture, they may bolt the skid to the frame though.

but ~$300 less w/o the nerfs?
