Badland Toys Sliderz

Finally got my sliderz welded on, and am very happy. See before and after running board removal/sliderz install.

Hey, those look just like mine!
I am sure you will like them.
The powder coating looks nice also.

Yeah, you could say I'm fully "infected." I started building a gear box for the back last night, should turn out pretty good. I'm tired of having to strap down stuff in the back. Done any rides lately? I'm trying to get something organized for the 12th.

Unfortunately I haven't. Just made a trip up to Canada this weekend, and I've been busy with other stuff.

I try to go out at least once a month...more is better though...

Lookin' nice there MC, making me want to get some sooner than I can afford.

Jim,
I went and checked out that road I was telling you about off exit 34...Drove on the dirt road for over 25 miles, there are supposed to be some hot springs over there somewhere but I didn't know the exact location. Unfortunately I had to turn around at around Mile # 27 because there was snow on the trail and I wasn't about to try it w/o anyone to yank me out.

I'm jealous. I really want a set of sliders. They look great.

Those look awesome. Looks like they stick out far enough to let little passengers get in. I think Corey's mount closer to the body.

Mine can be deceiving.
When viewed at certain angles, they look like they stick out far.

Other times they look closer.

Ahhh...I stand corrected. I think that has sold me on these sliders. I also like that you can remove yours Corey but I'm not sure that I'll ever need that feature.

I like mine. I have "tread" tape on them so that I can stand on them when they are wet without slipping and breaking my ass. I am going to order a roll cage in May when Jeff gets back from his work trip at his "real" job.



By the way this is an old picture. No front or rear bumpers yet.

Thanks for the compliments guys.

The lift is next, have the OME springs and shocks on the porch, Revtek diff spacers in the mail, Sonoran panhard drop bracket was just ordered today. Now I just have to decide whether to go with spacers in front or drop the cash on coilovers

It seems like there is some interest in a local off-road ride- check out my post in the trip organizing forum for the April 12th run and subscribe to that thread. Location will be determined by consenus, but I'm thinking I'd like to try Tahuya. Never been there before.

Just a couple of quick notes about the sliders-

1) In regards to how far they stick out, they are even with the stock black plastic fender flares (on my 98).

2) I think the only difference between Corey and mine are the fact that Corey can remove his, the sliders fit into a sleeve that is welded onto the frame. Mine are mounted on the frame.

They are worth every penny- what sold me was the ding on JRUZ's Tacoma before he got his put on.
