I thought it was because they are actually different tyres to ones you were originally putting on, no longer the 265/75/16 Procomps and now the original suggested and recommended size of 255/70/16's??

It is certainly looking Good premhk, that green looks great with all the black extras.

Those Sliders look very good, I esp like the extra sil support in behind, no other slider I've seen for the KJ has that, would add a lot of extra strength. I also prefer the slight up angle the outer bars have over the flat Rocklizard ones. I was actually thinking of cutting my RockLizards and rewelding them like that myself.

Josh you weld don't You???

Group buy!!! will you sell them to KJ members at that price??!! Thats cheap, wonder what thickness steel etc... You must work for $10 an hour lol. Unless you can whip them up in 3 hours....! Most fabricators charge at least $80-$100 an hour. The material alone must be around $100. I never paid $900 like I said, had them landed for $350.
JCR sliders proved stronger than Lizards according to trial and tested reports from the States. Will see how they perform when I hit the Vic High country. This pretty much sums up why they are better than the rest. http://www.jcroffroad.com/Merchant2/...gory_Code=KJSL

The 265 75 procomps I sold as I made big profit on them so I opted for the cooper stt mud terrains as I didnt have to spend big on the diff gears other uneccessary mods to have them work. As Im learning about 4wding, the difference in the mud would make no difference in those two tyre sizes. But a 30" tyre versus 33+" tyre would.

Folks just remember what Wooders started this thread for: KJ photo posting. Once a discussion starts on wheel options, sliders, bumpers etc it should really move to it's own thread - and this helps others find that topic (not having it buried in the Pics thread).
