For sure man. I visited the Owl Outdoors shop yesterday since they are local to me in Mesa and they gave a tour of their facility where all the manufacturing takes place. I think the only parts to have installed professionally would be the full skid plate and an aftermarket fuel tank due to lack of space in my single car apt garage. The rock sliders I can easily do on my own based off your guys testimonials!
That looks fantastic! Did it require any drilling or modification to the stock body or frame?
Check out the Buzz Overland rock sliders. I’m considering them myself. They fit to factory mounting points, have hilift jack points and are stainless steel for durability.
They are bolt on, plug and play, mounts to the holes already there. No modifications needed. Shipped on a pallet, very well wrapped. They're heavy. If you're crafty with a jack and jack stands, they'll go on in an hour by yourself. I used a rolling floor jack in the center -- hindsight says, fashion a larger jacking area with (parts of the pallet?) whatever you have on hand -- which i didn't do... instead I played the "lets see if I can balance this" game... use jack stands at the ends for safety.
Have you had any update from Buzz Overland or OK4WD yet on these? I ordered rear drawers at Overland Expo Flagstaff May 15-17 and the owner estimated that it would take me about 2 weeks to get them. I'm still waiting and keep getting the "the ship should arrive at port soon" answer.
The last update that I have is that there was a delay with the shipment at the port and everything got pushed out to August 10. We are now past that point, and I haven’t received any notifications from them. If I didn’t want these steps so bad I would have just canceled, but they are the only thing like it with the stainless steel construction.
