Does anybody make sliders for the Power Wagon? Honestly the Power Wagon should come with them from the factory imho.

You should be able to find more than a handful of threads with the search function. WK is the most popular

I have White Knuckles and love them but have to say I like that 3” kick out on the Maples.

They definitely will. If it doesn’t say so on the website, it’s because it would never occur to Neil to make a set of sliders that couldn’t be used as a jack point, so he doesn’t need to specify that.

Please do. They are a few hundred more then White Knuckles and I am on the fence myself. plus there is a company that claims that riveting into the pinch weld of the body is the strongest point and you don’t lose a single inch of clearance.

The Maple sliders were actually a bit cheaper for me even with shipping by about $40. And that was with a shipping quote from white knuckle that didn't include the top plate which would've been more. Not sure how a body panel is more rigid that steel gusseted tubing bolted to the frame but that's my opinion. That's alot of weight smashing into the rockers , from the reviews guys have given on WK and Maple you can't go wrong with either.

yeah after I read the article I remembered when I help jacked of a friends Cavalier, she had a jack that fit right on the pinch weld of the body and had a 3/4” grove that slipped right on and held the car up. So I see their point.
I liked white knuckles sliders with the top plate and have it in “the cart” waiting for Christmas. I was hoping it would keep the mud knocked down.

These are bare steel, I'm gonna scuff em up, clean and raptor line them this weekend. They are probably 120lbs each. Shipping weight from UPS was 270lbs with the pallet

Thanks I’m definitely intrigued. Grab a measurement from you current tubs please. I’m curious on the height difference between stock and your new sliders.

The white knuckle sliders are basically as tight up to the pinch weld along the bottom of the cab as they can make em. I can hardly get my fingers between the cab and slider in some areas.

My wife and I have had no issues getting a step purchase on the White Knuckle sliders. I don't regret not getting any type of top plate added. I do plan on getting the area used to step into the truck Line-X'd in the near future for some extra winter grip.

When I installed mine, I left just enough space to slide my finger between the top of the slider and and the pinch weld.
