    The foot of a hilift ends up hitting right in the middle of the bottom of the slider, I have picked my truck up many times with a hixlift and never had it slide around. The point on the jack kind of digs in and its really solid lift. I do plan on making an inexpensive extension meant to go with these sliders.

    Have you checked out brute force? Decent price and a good guy.
    Requires you do a bit of welding yourself but that's the fun of it :)

    My vote is Skinkwerks! They held up to Moab perfectly and are rock solid. They were dropped off several rocks and ledges in Moab and didn't give at all. They flow really well with plate bumpers and they make a very nice flat and secure step for the wife with short legs instead of round tube.

    Those are definitely nice. The fact that they extend almost completely to the wheel wells makes for some great protection. What does a set run for?

    Thanks, I like them a lot. I honestly can't remember exactly what I paid. I would contact Ben (Btnewman) for pricing. Awesome guy to work with.

    Really any slider built out of .120 wall tubing and welded to the frame is good stuff. If you have a good fabricater close by so that you can eliminate the shipping expense you will save a bundle. Avid Off-Road is close to me so I bought their sliders (with kick-out) AND had them weld them to my frame. Godzilla Strong, nice looking welds, and very reasonable price. I am suspect your BAMF sliders will be good as well.

    Don't listen to the BS about Long Beds can't off-road. Guys are either just taunting you or are pure Mall Crawlers....

    You are improving your off-road potential with proper sliders. The first time you come down on those sliders and DON'T damage your rocker panels or doors you have paid for the sliders. I don't worry about scrapes or dents on the sliders, you know that each one of them prevented real damage.

    Might want to look into skidplates next. (It never ends my friend...)

    SkinkWerks slider pricing:

    So far, I have only built them for second gens, working on first gen sliders.

    Base model $500,
    Dcsb/Ac $550,
    Dclb $600,

    Powder coating for base and Dc +$50
    Dclb +$75

    I am still working on bolt on options, and hope to make all sliders a bolt on option.

    These are made in my spare time and I am slowly expanding what I can offer.

    If you have questions please feel free to send me a pm, I have also been doing a few bumpers here and there as well as other custom work. Examples are BradyT88's bumpers and Bulhas's bed rack.

    I love your sliders they sure are a work of art! $600 is a lot of coin to swallow for some sliders though.. :(

    Well I guess this gets put on the back burner for the time being, at least I know who to contact!
