Yeh they are strong Troy, it was 100% user error, a long story, but i had 50 psi in the tyres, attempted to climb over some nasty rocks, needed to much speed (due to not letting tyres down) and then mis judged the whole approach (on my 3rd attempt), and landed hard on rock with the very outer edge of the sliders (lots or leverage), wheels in the air, then sliding sideways down the same rock, all in the same action.
When my son showed me the powder coat left on the rock, at first i did not believe i could have got that high, but i did, and without the sliders id have badly ripped the gaurd, sill and drivers door.
looking at what i did, and fact that my car weighs 3 ton, i think the sliders did pretty well.
