Default Rover’s North Rock Sliders?

Has anyone used these from Rovers North? They are the ProLine model and they are on sale for $448.00.

Any thoughts or opinions? Looking to get something for my ‘00 Disco.
Thanks!

I looked at those just today, and they didn’t look like they would be too burly and I thought weld to the frame as opposed to using the door sills.

they are f-ing awesome. I looked at every slider available on the market, from both a functionality, durability and cost (or cost no object) perspective, and these are, in my opinion, hands down the winner

they don't weld to the frame -- they bolt in on the inner and outer sills (the lame ones only use the outer sill which is very very weak). Anyway,they are NOT weak. And v v high quality. I've had the whole disco balanced on them...

galvanized, very nice looking welds, and a nice powder coat finish that's surprisingly durable. the TF ones and some of the other UK ones rust and have bad finish...

can see a few pics on an instagram I have for my d2-->
