What kind of truck you have makes a difference in getting good recommendations too... and we don't know that info.

First of all welcome to YotaTech!

As others have said, some more information about your rig, what you want to use it for, what you currently have on it, if you have any plans to lift it, etc...will really help us help you more.

There are several different kinds of sliders (material and shape) as well as quality/durability (DOM, HREW).

You can get square or round, kick-out or no kick-out, etc...

If it was me, for what I do, I would go with these along with a Hi-Lift jack and Wabbit's own Slider Adapter and Wabbit's foot accessories.

It's up to you if you want to go with the stronger more expensive DOM tubing or the cheaper slightly less strong HREW tubing.

I went with the HREW with no kick-out on my 3rd gen (HEAVY) and I was able to jack it up by the sliders with no problem at all.

Hope that helps,



Fink
