Default Affordable Offroad Rock Sliders

Is anyone running Affordable offroad weld in rock sliders? I've seen most people use 2x6 tubing, but they seem to be using 3x4 tubing. They seem pretty beefy and well made. After pricing material, for the price, can't go wrong. Just wondering if anyone has had experience with them and their thoughts. I don't mind that they start after the fender, as I have no rust in that section, just really need it for a rocker replacement, as the rockers are rusting at the pinch seem and towards the back wheel on my 2 door.

Design looks fine. I'd prefer 3/16 vs 1/8 wall but it is what it. Just make sure you tie these into your unibody in some way vs just welding them to the existing remaining rocker material. I've seen a few sliders ripped off with ease going that route.
