Not sure but aren't those braces just going to get beat on again? I haven't seen rock sliders installed except a side view showing them guarding the gas tank and one low tube along the bottom outside.

What I'm wondering is, do rock sliders protect the underside in some way, like a skid plate set?

Nope..not as far as I know. That's why I made mine out of 1/8" steel plate so I have a skid under to the main plate then up the side. Heavy..but sure glad I have them sometimes.

I like that. real nice work

Not as sweet as NMK, but good enough for those without such skills as his :-)

The Ricochet sliders as promised:
