Zabeard Sliders, how to order

Basically this is how its gonna work.

I am going to start accepting money for the sliders, I will be accepting for about 1 week.

All orders will be done via paypal, paypal takes a decent amount of cash for each transaction, I am gonna split that with you.

Price is $310 for one set SHIPPED.

I need to have a payment otherwise I am not making you a set. I am wanting the number of people wanting a set so I know how much steel to order.

I am estimating 3-4 weeks for shipment after I stop taking payments on the 20th of February.

paypal = zabeard@gmail.com

If for whatever reason paypal wont work for you and you are wanting a set send me a PM.

This is what it comes with.

Specs
81" long (extended cab version) I need a measurement for regular cabs
comes with 3 14" legs per side
1/4" plate to plate the frame
they require welding to put on the truck.
made from 1.75" DIA x .095" thick DOM

so are you going to only be making a one time offer on these and never making them again or is this just so you can make some orders ship them then get more orders...

I dont need rock sliders, and I'm poor, but those look nice. If you ever do tube bumpers I'll be in!

Already tossed in my order......looks great

*EDIT* - Anyway to get four support legs/plates per side? Let me know if it's workable (as far as attaching to the frame), and how much more $$ you will need to make it happen.

I think it is possible on a truck with stock ranger leaf springs. since i have chevy springs its hard to get the 4th one in.

I will send you a PM

Yeah I'm surprised...that last thread had tons of people that were asking you to make more...Well I for one, am VERY glad you’re doing this!!

If you’re interested in making other items (bumpers, skid plates etc.) let me know...because I might be down for those as well. Depending on style etc.

Hopefully others will have some $$ put together...but I'm sure everyone appreciates what you’re up to! It's always nice to see additional items out there for our trucks!

I have been thinking about bumpers, just not 100% on what I want to do yet. I need a bit more shop room. Been working on my buddies Yamaha Rhino and its been taking a lot of time.

I do plan to ship several sets next week though.

JR - shipping today
Off-roadranger04 - starting welding tonight
logan03CO - starting welding tonight
Sea-Bass - starting welding tonight

I want to ship the 3 sets on the same day, probably next Monday (March 2nd). I ran into some tool issues and I have been researching shipping options. Not that its an excuse.
