    Do these sliders lower the clearance height in that area?

    No. They are designed with a 5 degree angle down (which is barely perceptible), from the bottom of the frame. The idea being the slider hits before the frame. The top grate is also removable if you find yourself in extremely muddy conditions, or for ease of cleaning. So far I'm really happy with the build quality. I ordered the rack from the same company. https://rcimetalworks.com/. They're out of Loveland, CO. Very knowledgable and quick shipping.

    Looks great. What did you replace the rocker panels with, or did you?

    Haha! That was the tricky part. Since there are really no aftermarket trim panels, I ended up custom modding the OEM ones that came on the Limited. Took my time with painter's tape, cutoff wheel, and a dremel tool. Was able to use all of the fasteners that were original. I think it came out pretty good. The other issue was the trim pieces behind the front wheels. I had to get creative there as well. Ended up buying trim pieces designed to fit a 2021 TRD Off Road. Slight modification, but filled the empty space behind the wheels. I also added OEM mud flaps to give it a more finished look.

    I was able to leave the back end on, but there just didn't seem to be enough meat on the front to attach it securely after trimming. They did a nice job in your example.

    That looks great, I just yanked the plastic bits off and left it that way. C4 buyers should note that on the LE, the lower rear door trim will need to be cut by about .25 inches for the door to clear. It’s just a bit more plastic. I consider it lightening the load!
