----------MANIK ROCK SLIDERS----------
Has anyone seen or prchased or know's anything about the Manik Rock Sliders. They have them at www.suvxccessory.com on sale for $177.00.
By far the best price I've ever seen for a set of sliders!

Re: ----------MANIK ROCK SLIDERS----------
You can get them from Rocky Road Outfitters. They are less expensive than oem rock rails.
http://www.rocky-road.com/H3rockrail.html
check out this thread for pics and info. BabHumv was the test rig for them.
http://www.elcovaforums.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=19558
Not to tease you but Amstar is supposed to be coming out with a step/rock rail combo. Who knows when they will be actually be available  but they look good.

Re: ----------MANIK ROCK SLIDERS----------
Go with the OEMs or the Rocky Road. You get what you pay for.
If you wheel with anything else, you will like make up the $ in damage.

Re: ----------MANIK ROCK SLIDERS----------
Depends on your application. For some if you are buying with side steps why not. Also check the gauge of the steel. Just cause someone on this site bashed his on a rock does not mean they suck  |

Actually, a couple people have bashed them on rocks. And Manik responded with "too bad, they're only for decoration". Funny, they're not advertised that way. No way, no how would I EVER recommend those to anybody. 
If you want a product that actually provides protection, pass on the Manik's, its that simple.
If you want just the look, whatever.

Anything less-durable than OEM sucks in my book!

The reason they are on sale for $177.00 is that the MANIK ROCK SLIDERS are totally worthless.. Unless you are going to use them in Store Parking lots only..... |

Re: ----------MANIK ROCK SLIDERS----------
I just really don't like the look and design of that for rocker protection. The amstar one that is.

Someone else's junk is another person's treasure 
If you want to wait to hear after my Moab trip, I'll let you know, but so far after Katemcy Rocks, Canadian River Complex, and Ouray, mine are holding up. I can't say that I specifically high-centered my vehicle on them to see if they can take the weight but they are not bent or broke yet. In fact, I try not to test them at all on the trails
