Rock Sliders: chassis-mount or sill-mount?

You wouldn't jack up the motor on the body so just adding some steel to it isn't going to help.

Agreed. The body "floats" on rubber isolators, all you are doing by fastening to both is defeat the isolators and put extra stress on the sills. Here's a tip, stress and corrosion conspire against you, mount rocksliders to your sills and you are stressing the welded joits and inviting rust home to stay.
Mount them to the chassis, do the job properly.

Anything that Wizard makes is 'Good Stuff'...
Photos (and more importantly, prices) are required! Methinks there is a need to ply 'Santa's little helper' with wine... at least until she parts with the funds...
All the best!
