Bottorff Rock Sliders - Land Rovers Only

Jonesy · 05-28-2009, 07:56 PM

All - I have three projects i want (need) to do on a 95 RRC LWB:
1. Rocksliders
2. HD Front bumper & Winch
3. HD Rear Bumper with tire carrier

After extensive research seems like Bottorf offers some really good stuff...

BOTTORF WEBSITE

Question is - Has anyone used any of these products? If so good/bad/ugly?

Also - just opinions - what order should I do them in??? Right now the spare goes on top...would like to move it down for more space up there though.

CHEERS!!!!!

I have a Disco II bumper coming my way. Nate Bottorf has been above and beyond great to deal with. I plan to get sliders in time. Granted, not a rrc. (I just had one of those...only moved on because I needed A/C that was stronger with R134A).

I really like the D2 bumper's looks. My winch box will have a lid as I don't have HD suspension that can handle the weight of the winch "yet".....locking toolbox. It actually looks very, very cool. Nate's idea.

Not sure why the rrc would not be as cool looking.

the DII bumper is atrocious looking. everything else he makes looks good though.

i think the D2 bumper looks fine other than the winch box/tray. It just needs to be trimmed up and redesigned, but the wings/brush bar looks fine on it.

I have the front bumper for a couple months. It's held up extremely well so far. It looks like it's sagging in the front though, it could be that I just need to drill new holes to get it to line up properly.

how many bolts mount it on? pics of how it mounts?

RenegadeOfFunk · 05-30-2009, 03:51 PM

It mounts on using 4 bolts. I'll have to go out and take pictures when I can find my old D50... pretty sure no one wants 22mp images of 4 bolts...

edit: It should mount up using the bolt holes for the stock bumper. (My father put it on while I was away at school.)

I have his sliders w/o nerfs and am happy. They fit well and you wouldn't be able to tell I have sliders unless you know what you're looking at. I'm not really digging the DII front bumper though.

I'm sure he could do something w/ the tray though. I don't mind trimming the grill. I did on my old truck for my RTE.

Here is a pic of Nate's Rock Sliders on my DII

Here is an option to yout front bumper with winch ( stock trimmed + hidden winch mount )

I like Nate's bumpers. Nate is great to deal with. He's building my D1 bumper this week. It's similar to the D2 bumper, but it has a locking, hinged box on the front. The box will fit a winch when I get one. Great design!
