They seem to be well made and I think they look good.Install went OK. I did it by myself. The instructions were helpful, but were not 100% compatible with my 2023 Rubicon. I had to use an extendable magnet and a screw driver to get the forward most double nut plate positioned inside the frame on the drivers side. There was no way to get it there by hand. The hole that would have made it easier was covered up by a bracket for skid plate mounting. The passenger side was very easy even though the instructions indicated that I would need to remove things if I had skid plates. It does have skid plates, but I didn't need to remove anything for the install. The instructions don't tell you how to get the rear U bolt fastener in place. You need to thread it into one of the rear mounting holes and then work it in and around until you get it to come out the other hole. Put a nut and washer on the end your holding before you start so you can't accidentally drop it into the frame.As far as rock sliders go, I think they would do a good job if they landed on a rock. However they leave about 1 ft. of the pinch seam exposed right behind the front tire and another 4 or so inches in front of the rear tire. I know it's not likely that I'll hit something narrow enough to get up there, but It would have been nice if they would have extended the sliders far enough to give the complete protection they claim, just encase.
