    Does anyone have experience in dealing with Bay Area Metal Fab (B.A.M.F.)? I was checking out their sliders, and was wondering if any of the members had them. If so, what is the quality of the product? They seem reasonably priced and it's a local company to me. I figured I could save a bit on the product and save on the shipping by going to their shop to have them welded on. The pics on their site lead me to believe it's a good product, they look as strong as others I've seen. Also, what is your take on All-Pro Offroad's sliders, I like the look of those as well, and a trip down to Hemet means a trip to the desert!:D

    yea plus everyone makes em just a bit different..so style, type and strength are all factors in your purchase.

    either way. Sliders are a great mod.

    Thanks for the advice everyone, I think I'll get a pair from Jerry. What's the turn around time for production? I think I'll pick up a pair from my friend in San Diego and bring em down there next month and try 'em out in the desert:D

    Since we're talking about sliders...

    ...do you think they look out of place (or stupid) on a stock height truck?
