sliders for 89

I am looking at sliders for my 89 4 runner, anyone have any recommendations?

I assume they will all be weld on, correct?

Make the out of some 2" square tube, and some 1/8" plate.

Mine took a few hours.

I think it's funny when everyone says make them. If it only took yall a couple hours then why not take a couple more and make some for those that don't have a welder or aren't as "crafty" as you may be when it comes to building things.

You can charge a little something but not nearly as expensive as a marketed company like marlin or allpro.

I think Trail-Gear's are the cheapest you aare going to find and sometimes they offer free shipping on items over $100

Only if my name was Elton. I'm just surprised I beat him to it, and that he didn't post anything!

Great links EWAYota. I like the Allpro and the Stubbs with the kickouts. I may be making some like those soon hopefully.

IF those that arent as crafty would put up with non-production/ non professional welds and quality, then we might.

You pay for what you get. My sliders will work fine for me, becuase I made them, but most likely not for another person.

The comments of "make them" are usually used as some sort of motivation to get folks to start welding and fabricating. How do you think we all began?

It comes down to time, money, and what you put a higher value on.

I have been getting all my stuff from Adam at www.4xinnovations.com

Top notch stuff. I love my tube doors with the Quick release door hinges I got from him too!

I just installed a set from:

http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/ForSale/RockSliderZ.shtml

These look good, and are reasonably priced. They can be bolted or welded.
