OK so they may not not look as good on mine as they did on Troys :roll:

but they are custom length,
do have a lot of wheeling history behind them,
and I needed another set.
Had two sets of AllJs Boulder Bars on so far and sold them so going for RLs next....boat side it someday :lol:

now to get them out on the trail in a couple of weeks in Kentucky

They look good on your KJ... But they would look better if they were darker

Yep they will go to black soon,
I had part of a quart of Hammertone here and painted them with it for a good coat, later black....or maybe red if Chris comes around! :shock:

Got em on! Looks good.

Did you pull a bolt through the pinch-welded area or just one short?

Are they bent slightly, towards the very front of the outer step/guard bar? Looks just a bit in the first 2 pics, but my eyes are probably playing tricks again.

Good eye Mike,
Yes Troy dropped on a huge rock and bent it ever so slightly, you have to be at the right angle to see it, but I can put the jack under the tube and raise the KJ off the ground so still good and strong :wink:

and

riptricket

they will prevent door dings on at least a Ford Taurus. I parked beside my government supplied auto and it hits perfect right on the rail, no way to hit the doors :twisted:

Looks GREAT Tom! I like you additional details to the decals too!

Inc · **Posted:** Thu Sep 10, 2009 6:19 pm

I thought these were the ones you got off Troy. If anyone can bend a set, it would be him. I am sure they are plenty strong still. They cleaned up nice from when he posted pics of the rock rash they had on them.

Hey Tom... they look better than they ever did.
(psst - they're on a black KJ). :wink:

Looking good there Tom

.

Those sliders have saved my KJ many,many times.That dent on the passenger side one was from my KJ falling(all 5500lbs) 24" onto a rock,the hit was so hard that Marty(riding shotgun) had me stop so he could inspect since he thought I broke the rail,nope just a very slight dent and that outer tube took the entire hit(says something about his welding).
