    what are you using to bold to the factory rails? I had a friend of mine make up some cross bars and i'm having a tough time finding anything to actually secure them to the rails.

    Thanks

    Is the wait time for sliders and skids the same as bumpers currently?

    Are your prices going to start dropping down eventually? I only ask because vendors like Bruteforce, for example, sell their H/C for $695 ($105 less than yours) and their swingout option at $250. ($150 less than yours)

    Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love your products and their quality, I'm just curious why yours are significantly higher.

    Bruteforce cheapest of them all.... He's competitively priced between cbi and relentless.

    Compare the design and components that each of the companies use and you'll see the difference.

    If anything I expect to see prices increase over time. There are several factors that go into pricing. The high clearance bumper for example, we use a Snyergy latch and spindle which is nearly $300 for the set alone. Expensive? Yes but far superior to any other spindle and latch on the market. We only charge $400 for the entire gate, that will have to go up very soon. We will not cut corners to save a buck or two, in the grand scheme of things a hundred dollars here and there for superior quality is nothing when you consider the overall value of the vehicles these parts are going on.

    We carry full product liability insurance, that is a big hitter, not a lot of small shops carry insurance like that. Add in payroll, workers comp, medical insurance etc and it all adds up. These things prevent us from competing with small garage fab shops.

    We have all the equipment here in house, none of the fabrication is outsourced at all. That gives us better control over quality and lead times but also costs money.

    While we may be higher than some of the other options I believe we are quite a bit lower than most.

    I hope this helps answer your question, thanks for asking

    Appreciate the compliments

    Thanks for the information. I am very divided on your H/C rear and the yet-to-be revealed ATO H/C.

    ATO makes great stuff, I wouldn't hesitate to buy their products. Billy at Brute force makes amazing products as well, cant go wrong there either.

    It all comes down to the look and function you desire. Beyond those two factors is price and of course customer service, personally I am a huge stickler for customer service and certainly try to treat all my customers they way I like to be treated.
    Everyone that is buying from me is typically spending a lot of hard earned money, I want them to feel good about their purchases and confident they are getting their moneys worth in both the product and the level of service.

    I have to agree with my esteemed off-roading colleagues, Witnessing Tyler's products in the field as well as up close, the details and fit and finish are without a doubt the 1%

    Tyler I know you mentioned something about the tire swingout moving to square tubing. Did that happen or is still the same as the one on your truck?

    Pelfreybilt has some of the best looking products around with absolutely no sacrifice in quality. Everyone that looks at the bumper in person is extremely impressed. Before next year Moab I will have that rear high clearance and roof rack!

    Also I have personally called tyler for general metal/truck advice and has gone out of his way multiple times to help me. When my truck is done it will be a rolling Pelfreybilt advertisement!

    All of the swing outs are now rectangular tubing. Mine is the only round tube one we made to test it out, tried to cut a little weight. The round design works but does flex more and has resonance of vibration so we will not be doing any more like that. I will eventually change mine out for rectangular as well, it is a superior product over the round.

    Thanks Peter, appreciate it.
    Bryant, Erik and Connor, thanks guys.
