Rock Sliders KDSS GX470
Does anyone make these without having to fabricate them? I have searched various forums and found that there is modifications needed for all. Thanks!

These are bolt on, but if you have KDSS, you will have to make modification on the driver side.

MetalTech makes new kits for the GX470 with KDSS and without. Their website is outdated, which says non-KDSS only. They now offer all their sliders for KDSS and instructions for installation when fitting KDSS-equipped applications.

They also just came out with front and rear steel bumpers which are bolt-on ready for the GX470. Not cheap but no customization required. First company to do this to my knowledge.

They are not the first company to do this. However, they are the first company to build bumpers that are sturdy, but don't require suspension upgrades. In other words, the front bumper only weight 75lbs more than the stock bumper and the rear bumper weights in at just over 200lbs. The OPOR (subsidiary of Metal Tech) sliders will work with KDSS.
Here are some pics of my Metal Tech front bumper and sliders and Mark Hawley's rear bumper.
