My legs hit them every time as well. I ended up cutting the mounts off of mine and welding 2x2 1/4" wall tubing to the main tube and 1/4" plate for the mounts and welding them to the frame. The ones for the rodeo dont have the bolts into the bottom of the frame so every time the frame/body flexes it pulls the bolts out. Eventually ripped the rocker pinch seam where its mounted to that as well.
BTW, I dont recommend using a hi-lift on super sliders without a tube adapter.
