Rob are you happy with yours

 

I was looking at them and also the Beefed Taco sliders. I want to do the bolt on option though

 

I'm very happy with them. Jerry was a great guy to deal with. Always answered my calls and my questions. He hit the exact lead time he gave me and the sliders are very beefy.

 

I think I want bolt on as well but I'm not married to that idea. Check out Famous Fabrication also. They have no-drill bolt on sliders. I don't really mind drilling the frame but it's not an easy job!

 

I almost bought the beef taco slider because they have the tube that comes up to protect the bed . But they were to much money for me at the time .

 

The Famous Fabs are not as strong in my opinion. Relentless is coming out with a no drill bolt on as well. But I believe that if you're going to the expense of buying sliders they ought to be strong enough to really use them. For that reason I like the ones that some holes need to be drilled. BTW, torch FTMFW.

 

Ya if you want to wait 8 years to get sliders go relentless .

 

I dont mind drilling the frame either but if I dont have to and they are still strong then why would I

 

Yeah... That's the main reason I haven't even considered their sliders. Their wait times are a little extreme. BAMF seems to just have his guys crank out sliders whenever they start to slow down.

 

I just talked to the in laws down in Jersey and the tree is finally off and out of their house

 

You're correct, they won't be as strong as some of the others but, for most of us, they'll still be plenty strong enough. They can always be welded in place down the road also

Unfortunately, I don't have access to a torch that will cut the frame. I'd just keep stepping up with bit size. I believe BAMF's bolt on kit comes with 3 drill bits to drill the frame, does it not?

 

my understanding is three bits wont be enough

 

Famous Fabs are 585.00 including shipping thru fastenal for my Access Cab

 

Just checked his thread comes with bits for an extra 50.00

fj wheels

 

You can get the bits with the BMAF's. They are a industrial bit that you can't just buy anywhere and the three bits supposedly will last and do the job. They are not free but he sells them when you buy the sliders at the same price he pays for them.

 

I've met this guy. I want these wheels.

 

It looks like the BAMF will be 425.00 before shipping. That is for the bolt on ones I figure shipping will be about 100.00 maybe

 

Hmmm.... so there are 3 people thinking about sliders from BAMF... I wonder if Mr. Jerry could be pursuaded into grouping the shipping One pallet would be perfect and probably cheaper than shipping separately.

 

Hmmm and I am also prob after the holidays
