Sliders

Just got my sliders from budbuilt.com
Just over 6 weeks fromnorder to my door.

 

That was hard to read. They pretty much just bashed other vendors while touting their superiority, but don't show any pics of how it mounts, etc. And there were a couple inconsistencies in there.

 

Gotta give the people what they want, even if it's dumb
If I could find stuff that stuck out another 6 inches, it'd sure help protect my Mall crawler.

 

Wow that website is fugly as hell too.

 

I got some CBI sliders, was super happy with my experience so YMMV, OP!

 

Looks like something from the mid 2000s

 

Was that site created with Geocities? FFS, that looks like a 12y/o made it.

Oh, I recommend SOS Concepts, but Mobtown are good too...really depends on location, price, and lead times..

 

Yeah their site is a bit dated, but the product design looks solid and they made good points. They made comparisons with their design and stated the logic behind it. Kinda have to if you want to set yourself apart with all the companies out there. I agree its not the most professional way, but just buying sliders though.

 

That video was pretty good though.

By far the worst slider design on the market. I've personally replaced mutable sets they all went in the scrap bin to anyone out there don't buy those. Any and every vendor on TW produces a far better product.

 

Thank you for chiming in. I was typing out a response but it doesn't carry as much weight as you saying this. Might as well save my breath.

Here's a pic of how those mount. Best heed JLee's advice

 

Yeah they carried a uni-body slider design onto the Tacoma. By far the worst mounting system I've ever seen on a slider. Even a green engineer could look at them for 5 seconds and see whats all bad about them.

 

The "engineering" on those is garbage. Here is another tid bit... HARD PASS... https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/rocky-road-nightmare.377973/

Stick with a trusted TW Vendor, there are a few based on location that are great options...

BAMF, Caliraised, CBI, Mobtown, SOS Concepts... Lots of better options to choose from...

 

Those BAMFS look like the mean business, 4 month lead time right now :/

 

Sucks but easily worth the wait. BAMF is the only other vendor on here I'd consider running on my truck, because it can take abuse.

 

Yeah after our thanksgiving sale we are slammed for months. I'm working on shortening that lead time with new employees but training and such takes time.

 

I'm personally waiting for Budbuilt to finish their updated DCLB design. I really appreciate their approach to design and testing, so I think it will be worth the wait.

They told me that they hope to finish with the testing sometime later this month or early April.

 

I'm getting mine hot dip galvanized. There's a shop down the street from the fabricator that will dip it for $140. It can be touched up with high zinc silver paint.

My truck is silver and the sliders are 25* so it might look pretty good.
