Check out Roger Brown's page, 4Crawler Offroad. I'm getting a set from him as soon as I get the $$ together.

His banner is in the Vendor Links section too.

Jim, check out the link on the main page here called "YotaTech on the web."
Once there, look in the article section for the Sliderz Round-Up.

Many sliderz available for the 3rd gens including a local WA. guy, www.badlandbumpers.com

That's what I have, and a few other 3rd gen guy's have Badland's too.

Another recommendation for the Badland Bumper Sliders. They look great on my 4Runner. If you go with the Badland Sliders, get the powder-coated ones.

You don't need luck. Just bring a couple extra dollars to the table.

Sliders

Another vote from me for Badlandbumpers sliders, powder coated. Very fast turnaround time and asked all the right questions (length, fender flares, etc).

If you really look close at the sliders, each one is best suited for the area they are made.

Maniac Metal Works: tight fitting to the body, for the very tight rocky AZ trails. Erosion ruts cut into rocks typically at the bottom of canyon or valley. The second upper bar is so the sliders can be tighter in.

All Pro Off Road: Very wide stance out from the body, best suited for the Hammers trials, which are very wide with large round rocks randomly placed. Rolling type hills.

Rockstomper & Slee: Colorado built, both are wider like All-Pro but not as wide, The Colorado guys add the angle upward. Similar rocks to Arizona but on the side of a mountain versus the bottom of a canyon.

Badlands: Looks like the Colorado Style. Good solid design.

4Crawler: Obviously the Hammers had something to do with this design as well. Good solid California slider. Different in that the ends flare out, but all in all should work just fine.

Steve,

I think I am going to design my own. When I do, will you look over the design to make sure they aren't crap? I just haven't found what I am looking for out there.
