Exactly how far out should a rock slider stick ? In theory, a foot and half would keep just about anything away from the side of the body.
It would be fair to say that all rock sliders in production, from every manufacturer don't stick out far enough.
Look at that picture again. What if there was a rock under the driver side front tire tilting the X a bit ? The body of the Xterra would be right into that rock, regardless of who's rock slider was installed.
I agree with everything you've said here ... but what does it have to do with what I said that you quoted?
