Default C4x4 Sliders thoughts?

I'm really looking into getting these double-tube sliders from c4x4 and have read a mixed group of thoughts but none bad and not many first hand experiences with them. I was wondering if anyone here has/is running them and how do they like them? I really like the price and design of them but they don't show how they're mounted and can't seem to find any pictures of it.

I have a buddy with them they are holding up fine for him


I went with rigidco sliders on my Xj since the bottom of the slider is flush with the bottom of the pinch seam ( have to knotch for the legs). So mine loose zero clearance and I paid 200 for mine.

I saw your build and i'm not a fan of the whole cutting the seam. You lose minimal clearance with these as well and I like the tube design. Thanks for mentioning rigidco though their bumpers look nice

What's tube do they use?

Wall thickness?

They tie into anywhere but the subframe?

This is right from the link i posted "These are built from 1.5" OD .140" wall steel tubing. They bolt to the rear spring hanger, pinch seam, and frame rail for a solid mounting. All pieces are black powder coated."
