    I agree.

    Being round does strengthen it, but still .060"

    I'm assuming the thicker the more power it takes to turn it so less power at the wheels.

    Looking to buy the U-bolt flip kit but wanting to know which kit you guys suggest? Toytec website list them for $59.99 pus another $20.25 for shipping to NJ. Is that a fair price or should I look into another brand if there are any?

    Don't get AP...they are by far the worst to deal with. Ant just posted a link of a good one the other day...maybe he will chime in.

    I has sheer at work capable of cutting 1/2" and press capable of drilling them :cool:

    Problem is our shop guy is a fucktard. He won't even tack my tiregate up for me off the clock for cash. If it wasn't a union shop and he wasn't a rat fink POS I could make them.

    If you can tell I like him.

    Don't think I will be ordering from AP as everyone seems to have negative experiences with them.

    Well hopefully I hear from Ant then. On another note I just ordered from SPC's website the bushing and boot replacement kits and I already got a conformation email from them. Talk about awesome customer service!

    Getting my sliders from all pro were no hassle for me, they have the scars to prove they work. Maybe I'm the exception to the rule on this one though.

    Ever get that last bolt drilled in :devil:

    I never said anything at the time because you were already broken down, but when we were jacking your truck up to remove the driver wheel they deflected a ton.


    Not that it matters because I'm 99% sure when they got bought out none of their old designs were sold with the company and thats why everything is coming out "new". Those are rumors at this point, but from a pretty good source.

    How did you pay? Paypal or Credit card?
    If paypal, check your email/paypal account and OK the request we would have sent you for the amount of shipping.
    If CC, your order is probably already out and most likely delivered by now. Those ship USPS and are normally to their destination in 2-3 days.
    We are closed on Saturday and Sunday. So, your order probably shipped out on Monday or Tuesday at the latest.



    What are your personal experiences with us?


    Jon almost sold the company, but the deal fell through and he is still the owner.
    We are coming out with new products because innovation and improvement can ALWAYS be made.

    All pro sliders

    All bolts now in, at that time all bolts not in, they did deflect a bit then, but not enough to hit the cab at all. As Scott says, his do a bit as well. I'm sure they all do, point is they work, and rocker panels never touched, and last trip with Scott n Chris, they were used hard, no issues....now as soon I figure out reverse, we're good.
