Hi what rock sliders and where from I guess lizard are gone now SHAME there rear bumper looked good. I went to 2 fabricators for sliders and they wanted $1000 per side for sliders from pictures :dizzy: so I either import or get the mig and cutter out and try myself but time for that job would be hard top find.

I got mine made by Ava 4x4 on sunny coast. Look up rocksliders.com.au. You can see a picture of mine under the photos page - silver Cherokee. About $1000 for both sides from memory. Tested heaps and take the full weight of jeep no problems.

THANK YOU but we have a Plan :-)r I used to run lada niva in trials what I used to do was cut the sills out and repalce with box section, this time I will put a bit more care into the construction and add stronger tree slider into the mix.I have been down to compliance center they say its ok by them, just need to find out what its like inside the sills b4 I start cutting away, the shape will change but thats not a problem just need the strength there. Has anybody else tried this route b4 :?:
