Hey guys, posted this over in the Trailhunter section as well since i didn't realize there was a rock slider section. I'm looking for a bolt on replacement of the OEM rock sliders that don't require any extra drilling and just use the OEM bolt locations that also have top plates for use as a step. Kick out would also be preferred. Gotta make it easier for the dog to get in and out, and sometimes myself - haha. I like the look of the Westcott sliders with the top plates, but not sure if those use the Trailhunter OEM bolt locations. I also have the long bed model. Thanks in advance.

Check it out. Got some photos from Dirt King from their test runs in the desert on their new 2.5 coilovers and shocks they're going to release soon. The kit includes rear springs that are developed alongside the rear shocks for the best performance. The truck is also running their other prototypes for rear links, billet UCAs and their signature lowers. This is basically an example of the best you can do with mid-travel bolt-on components.

A few images below with the truck air born and bottoming out. The owner/president said once properly equipped, the 4G platform has some seriously good potential.

I ran DK's suspension on my 3G build for 4 years. Everything was top notch. They have a killer reputation.

If you want to win a set of these, check out their ongoing giveaway! Two full suspensions with UCAs up for grabs.
