lol good luck with that! Zach is good people! By FAR one of the best guys i have worked with in aftermarket stuff. Super nice, lets you know whats going on and is blunt when **** happens. I still think he needs to get some stickers or something so I can advertise for him. I know I will have people ask me where I got the sliders for my F150 because NO ONE makes them and I have NEVER seen anyone with a NBS f150 with sliders.

Hey Zabeard,

Any chance of getting a price quote for a set of ranger sliders shipped to Victoria BC, Canada.

Thanks!

Sorry guys I dont make these currently. Too much time and money involved and its not worth my time right now. If I get more free time this winter I may make a few more sets but as of now I am not making sets.

Looking at making some sliders for my 93 Ranger with square tubing and I stumbled across some sites talking about 'Skids' (
). The couple of videos I've seen with the skids showed a truck on a rock having trouble getting off, the same trouble every video of plain sliders had. Seems a bit unnecessary to me, but what do you think? It seems you're the guy to ask.

looks like just a demo video of how strong they are. if you had lockers that would not be an issue at all.

I ended up ordering the trailgear 67" u build sliders for the truck. They were $240 CDN shipped to my door.

They look like they will do nicely

You would be correct. He's still a member but hes not a big fan of the forum anymore and doesnt frequent to much. He still isn't making the sliders for reasons as previously mentioned.

I doubt he is. He gets on occasionally to check in and is actually thinking about selling his truck.

SO I doubt he has time to start making sets again, I know he wasn't big on it anymore as it just wasn't worth the time it took and he was real busy.

Good luck

Yeah he probably won't make them but you could check with safaripacific on here. I know he is a fabricator and I will probably have him fab me stuff for my jeep. Shipping would suck but its worth a shot if you really want them.

you can get some from trail gear and they're pretty cheap. Idk the length you'd need for a regular cab tho.
