    I'd be interested in bolt on sliders and a front skid plate to replace the factory thin one.

    09 TRD Ext cab if you need the truck to determine a price.

    A-arm skids will be $125-$175 depending on if ordered in steel or Al and with or without powdercoat. That is before any group buy discount of course.

    Sliders will start around $450+/- for a pair as shown in the pictures above. Other options will be available. Both of these are new products that aren't on the website yet, but they will be available for purchase by the time we get rolling with this.

    Here are some pics of the slider frame and rail (without the 1.75" tube side rail) mounted on the truck, bear in mind that this is a prototype and not finished or fully welded though.

    [​IMG]

    Just a little info on the sliders before we get them up on the site....
    -2" x 1.20 wall square tube main rail with four legs.
    -1.75" x 1.20 wall round tube outer rail with four fully welded supports.
    -3/16" full frame supporting mounting plate, utilizes 7/16" hardware and is drilled for three additional bolts on bottom flange for ultimate strength.
    -Edge of slider is angled up 15 degrees
    -6.5" distance from rocker pinch seam to outer edge of slider (except on kickout)

    Count me in for IFS, transmission, and transfer case skids. Your pricing is already great. I can just imagine a group buy :D

    e: Put this thread up in the Group Buy section also. I know I check that section every day for deals, and rarely come to 2nd Gen anymore. Many others may do the same!

    Could definitely be interested in sliders, depending on final cost including shipping.

    Edit: Woah, you're in Fort Collins?? Definitely interested!

    If you need a truck to test fit anything as well, let me know.
