I am not sure, but it makes me want to just buy from a larger vendor even if it cost more.m

Default We can help

We build sliders that have a 4" step surface when the door is opened up and they are rolled to match the contour of the bottom of the body not cut and rewelded. They come standard with 2 light tabs on the frame side and all grade 8 hardware. All of our products are powdercoated fine texture semi-gloss black and have a 5 year finish warranty against rusting and peeling of the powdercoat. They are $750 + shipping.

thanks, Denny

Hey Denny, I've seen your bumpers first-hand on Jon's and Rick's trucks. Top notch work! Do you have any pics of your sliders for a D2 with the step surfaces you could share? (didn't see any on your site)

mike,

can you PM or email me those plans for sliders so i can have a look see?

i have a metal fab shop i do business with and a powder coat shop as well that i have good relations with. i want to see the design on these and see what it will cost to make thought my connections.

my wife has the same issue getting in and out as feels bad sliding off the mint leather. and i want something functioning as a slider and step. not one or the other. for the money people want for these things they should do both jobs well and have fireworks shoot out of them when you open the door and arrive at your destination

I ended up getting the Terrafirma sliders with tree's. The fit was spot on and the trees offer plenty to step on. Will be helpful once my bajarack shows up. Very well made and worth the $ in my mind.

Hey Denny, thanks for the pics! Looks great! Those the same that Jon has or those the step ones? I'll have to take a closer look at Jon's next time we get together.
