Next Venture Motorsports Skids and Sliders

[Bennys24Braptor]

Turning my BRaptor into a more resilient rock crawler I decided to get some Next Venture Motorsport sliders and Skids. They went on really well and provide great protection. There are a couple spots that may need some more skids before I feel 100% confident dragging the belly without consequence. The sliders are super burly. Haven’t needed them yet. But they provide a lot of piece of mind out in the boulders. My kids and wife would have preferred I kept the side steps but they were super noisy when scraping rocks and wanted to hang up at times. Next Venture makes solid parts. Can’t wait till they make a kit for the Ranger Raptor.

Finally made it out to Little Moab to get run a little test on the skids. They should perform well down in the real Moab.

Did you paint the sliders? Also, did you go full length or the 3" shorter?

I went with the 3" Shorter and no I dint paint anything it comes in a raw aluminum color that looks pretty good.
