Rock Sliders for Extended Cab Rangers. Who is interested?

I have had several PMs asking about making some sliders. I am willing to make some sliders but I would like to get a group going to save some money and build it all at once.

I am offering them in .095 wall 1.75" DOM, this is plenty thick and strong for a ranger. It will be the same design that I have on my truck.

Prices

$300USD + shipping

An Extra $20 if you would like 4 posts per side. These require welding to the frame. I also will send plate for the frame to strengthen them up.

If you are interested Send me a PM, I would like a $50 deposit before I start on the sliders.

I will ship to Canada.

.095 is pretty strong, plus its DOM not CREW or HREW. IT doesnt dent easily

I take it the picture you posted your truck is equiped with a body lift. i dont have a body lift on so will the angle still come out alright? Or can i trim the tip of the tubing that weldes on the frame to set the angle i want? Also do you have pictures of where you welded them under the frame?
Thanks

I will get pics on the frame, there are members here that have them mounted on without a BL, and it works fine, the tubes you weld come extra long and are already hole sawed on one side the other side you could cut an angle on if you so choose

I know Joe (Off-roadranger04) has a set of sliders on his truck without a BL. You can probably get him to take some pics of it for you.

sorry to dig up an old thread, Zach, how much would shipping be to canada? (roughly) and how much abuse will these take, before bending and possibly blocking the door from opening or something like that?

I think Jesse said he payed like 360 ish, but he got them shipped to washington first.

I welded them up for Jesse, and they are BEEF! Its going to take alot of beatings to dent/bend these.
