    You may also check with a local fab shop. If you find one with some free time it might save you a good bit.

    Everything has gotten expensive overnight. Have you seen the prices of gas and groceries?

    Rock sliders have always been expensive. I have no idea what price you are looking at, but I paid over $1000 over 2 years ago.

    everything! Shits nuts right now.
    As @gudujarlson mentioned, they’ve never been especially cheap, not for American made real stuff anyways. The RCIs I bought over 3 years ago were about $900 I think.

    The Venn diagram of those who rock crawl and those who have predator steps is just 2 separate circles
