Rock sliders.

So, living in the northeast salt belt (yay lake effect), its almost time for some rock sliders.
Frame mount or body bolt mount? I want something to protect the body, but I cannot weld.
Any suggestions?
Pic of rust, just because.

Luckily. The frame and most bolts are in good shape.

You're going to find that pretty much every aftermarket manufactures' coating sucks balls. It will last for awhile but not in the northeast.
Bob is correct - I have a set of the LOD bolt on sliders and they're a great option. Just be prepared for them to rust to shit in a couple years of salt exposure. There just doesn't seem to be an alternative that lasts.

Not sure if you can weld rust. LoD offers good bolt on sliders, but this assumes that the bolts are not frozen up with rust.

Correction. Only cold and snow out there. From Rochester moved away as soon as I could. As far as rock sliders make sure to use fluid film or some type of corrosion protection and they will still probably get rusted but at least you can slow the process.
