    I love them except for the 6 million silver screw heads. Makes it look like a studded leather jacket.

    The 3mm screws really need to be black

    But do you wheel though? Considering these slider and ARB sliders. Arb ones look to be more substantial given the body mounts

    The first rock you slide over will tear out the screws and do damage to the slider

      That's what I intend to find out. Stay tuned.

      Check out my latest video, they held up well. No damage yet, I avoided heavy contact as much as I could but they go deep underneath and worked great when I had to slide over a rock.

    they look good until they start rusting

    Wouldn't the screws just get sheered off on the rocks?

    • @Gladiator4x4Beast
      @Gladiator4x4Beast  Před 3 lety

      I'll be testing these off-road in future videos. It's a good question, one that will be answered if/when these take any damage on more difficult trails. Thanks for commenting.

    Awesome Video! Any other rubbing issues besides the stock sliders?

    • @Gladiator4x4Beast
      @Gladiator4x4Beast  Před 2 lety

      No rubbing issues at all after switching out the stock sliders, has a great turning radius

    What happened to the movie intro/outro? Did they bust you for copyright? I actually like it! My .02

    • @Gladiator4x4Beast
      @Gladiator4x4Beast  Před 3 lety

      Haha no copyright claims at all I’m glad you watch my videos! I’ll definitely use it again and I have some more ideas coming soon as well! I actually don’t want to monetize this channel even though I can, I’ve had a different channel before and frankly Google doesn’t pay squat for views. I’d rather form partnerships with off-road companies and brands and help promote Jeep aftermarket off-road gear then try and get paid from Google. Plus it’s not about any of that I’m just having fun with my Jeep and making videos. Thanks for watching.

      @@Gladiator4x4Beast I appreciate your candor and the fact you don’t care about monetizing. The commercials make some channels unwatchable. I was merely asking because I noticed it went missing and it was a badass byte to use for your channel! Keep up the good work

    • @Gladiator4x4Beast
      @Gladiator4x4Beast  Před 3 lety

      I put the Gladiator sound bytes back in my latest video thanks to your feedback!

    Glare from filming into the sun. Did they drill into the body for the rock guards?

    • @Gladiator4x4Beast
      @Gladiator4x4Beast  Před 3 lety +1

      Thanks for commenting, I was going for a Michael Bay feel for the sun glare lol. Yes, they do drill into the body panels to install the rock skins.

  • @TheHillbillyhotrod
    @TheHillbillyhotrod Před 3 lety +1

    Intrested if these will hold up in the rocks?

    • @Gladiator4x4Beast
      @Gladiator4x4Beast  Před 3 lety

      Just had it out on some difficult rock terrain and posted a new video. Sandstone canyon, they held up well! I was still being careful enough, they go deep underneath so they worked great for sliding over a big rock, didn’t damage them at all yet.

    How well do the sliders work for a foot when entering and exiting the vehicle?

    • @Gladiator4x4Beast
      @Gladiator4x4Beast  Před 2 lety

      Better than the stock Rubicon rock sliders, you can stand on them but barely. They work a little for entering and exiting the vehicle but I don't use them for that.

  • @jasonw7337
    @jasonw7337 Před 3 lety +1

    Are the sliders body or frame mounted?

  • @blain5827
    @blain5827 Před 2 lety +1

    Have you wheeled with them? How are they holding up?
