    I've still got these leaf springs in the back of my truck. The stock pack with the wheelers 3 leaf add-a-leaf. Includes extended u-bolts and they have no rust. i'll give you guys first pick. 150$ OBO. I want them gone.

    and on another note, I've been looking for trails to run. Anyone heard good things about left hand canyon in boulder?

    yeah not what I planned on but I had them half built and might as well finish what I started the way I wanted them. It was either that or buy a new set for the price to finish them.

    Gosh, wish I could have just built them for you. The sliders I made for friends cost 300$ for 1.75" round tube .120 wall DOM and I welded them on for them!

    A small handful of select mods.

    Could of almost got Slee's for that amount. But it is what it is now. The important think is that you have protection.

    I think if you sat down with Round Star and talked a bit about design as well they would make something functional and stylish. That fact of the matter is you found a place that is willing to work with us that isn't located in or near Wyoming. :D I cannot find a local shop in the Denver area that wants or does work that we want.

    Chris - I think that bumper on that Land Rover is an ARB. They were showing the fact they do installs and lifts and such as well on their page. I think ARB has that stamped vertical bracket trademarked and no one else can use that design.

    It was, but it reopened a few weeks ago.... the range is disgustingly trashed though, as the volunteer groups haven't cleaned up after the a$$holes who leave all their shot up garbage up there.

    Actually got up there to try out my new M1A Scout! :fenforcer:

    The ARB bumper is for a different make and model of truck that the retro fit to that truck. There is a comment at the bottom.

    I sent a PM to Scotty to see if he would take his existing slider design and modify it for my truck. It is a PITA finding the armor I want, paying shipping and then having to plan the install.

    I would think most 4x4 fab shops would be happy to do something as simple as sliders.

    You seem to know what you are doing and always willing to help. :D

    I have never meet you before but you should consider charging for your work. Just do it at your own pace.

    We didn't get to the knarnly stuff though. We turned around cuz the jeep guys said we'd have to winch ourselves out. So we did just the first part of lefthand, then that road that looped us around.

    I recognize the area of the first pic.
    For those that went on the first TW Colorado trail ride: Did we end up doing big Momma Hill? Sounds about right, that hill we climbed was big.
