They're on!

They're pretty subtle from a distance, but not up close!

The shop that I attached mine ended up forming a bracket that attaches to a cross member in order to prtect against any lateral shearing. Personally I think it would have been fine without it, but I'm not complaining!

I'm QUITE pleased!


THANK YOU RiCHARD!

Are they getting a coat of black or silver? I couldn't tell if they were still raw in all the pics.

They're still raw... I'm going to run up to a friend's house on Wednesday for a 2nd opinion and a bit of shopping at Home Depot for various spray-on solutions.

One thing I'm thinking about doing is to scratch them up with some fine emery cloth and let them be. With the silver cladding on the truck, they pick up a hint of glimmer that looks kinda' cool.

Hmmm... on 2nd thought, I guess I should worry about them rusting huh? Dang... Okay, then they're goign flat black.

Personally, I like them silver to match the cladding. Maybe there is a flat silver out there...

Maybe here.

Just keep a can in the rig.

Hello everyone!
Well considering the success of the group buy (for which many were sold after the GP deadline-honoring the GP price!-just for you stragglers) We ended up selling in the nieghborhood of 20-22 all said. Simply amazing.

If you bought a set from us send me your email address and your screen name here..

Thanks again to all of you who decided to buy our sliders- you bought some of the best handcrafted sliders availiable (and at a smokin' price!!!)
take care,
Richard Stubbs- actually taking the day off today! well sort of.

I finally had the sliders welded on. I'll have pics soon. My welder Carl noticed the welds and complimented the welder. He also was wishing he had a Tig welder.
Thank you Mr. Stubbs. Last but not least thank you Mr. Pulver for organizing this GB.

Dan, I really like the looks of your sliders! I think we've talked about this before, but our trucks are exact twins, except for the sliders, and SC. Even the CB antenna mount.

We'll get together one of these days and compare trucks. Looks great.

Dan, I would like the performance of the SC but am not crazy about the premium fuel. The suspension is nice, I've had several good trials lately in eastern Oregon and Idaho to try it out.
