Prado 90 - Rock sliders by Ali3n Rox

Post by Ali3n »

A while ago we built this set for a friend. Was at clients request but I think it looks perfect for the shape of the vehicle.

What say you?

They look really tough and strong good work,,,,, I always see the high lifter jack points added to the sliders on the sides, but never have seen a pic with the jack actually fitted to see how much clearance there is between the body and if it is designed to be practical,,If a pic can be added i'ill appreciated...

Thanks for the kind word guys. :thumbup:

With all the sliders we design and build we take the clearance into account when it comes to hi-lift jacking. We then always test the sliders for vehicles we have not done before to ensure that our clearance is perfect. The slider and the body does not come into contact at all. But how often does one use your hi-lift? I use my bottle jack to change a tyre.

These sliders are designed to take a huge knock from beneath and thus would be completely useless if they should hit the body due to damage which may occur. Thus the purpose of rock sliders. :thumbup:

But I will be happy to post a picture of one we tested with a hi-lift jack. :thumbup: Let me go through my archive.

They look brilliant. Great job chaps! Already protected the car from potential damage. Would recommend Ali3n to anyone needing custom kit like this.
