Thanks man! Just ordered that sucker. It was way cheaper than I thought it was going to be lol.
Ya man, it works great , I used lock Tite on all the bolts I've had mine for about a year and a half still holding strong.

I ordered my cross bars off eBay also

I'm interested to know how you mounted your running board lights to the sliders (and curious as to why you put them underneath where they'll get smashed when the sliders are doing their thing). It looks like you just used zip ties, but did Rocky-Road supply any solution for mounting them with their design? They look really good by the way. Did you work with them on this new design (I saw you pics on their site)? I like the kicker...especially the diamond plate step as my kids use the running boards to climb in and out.

I just mounted the lights as a quick solution to drive the truck, I will move them higher above the rock slider, there is no way to mount the light unfortunately,
