    Were not allowed to pull our personal vehicle in at all. Im there for 24 but can only work on mine outside. I dont think its right cause the public can see what their tax dollars are paying for. Oh well, I didnt make the rules but follow them.

    Interesting. I'm trying to decide between the LRs and camburg ball joint ones. May go with these since ball joints are very easy to replace.

    Yeah, and I've heard that can be somewhat difficult. I've read the LRs had some problems wearing out soon, but that they've been solved for the most part.

    Right, then sometimes the Moog bjs won't fit correctly either.

    I love being married, 18 years this year and a lot of the time it depends on how you 'sell it'.....
    I want sliders.... no, you dont need them down here....
    I think I should put step rails on my truck to make it easier for you to get it and out... yes, that is a good idea....

    Go to Jerry (BAMF), but sliders, install on truck...

    Come look at the new step rails....Oh, wow, did you put them on wrong or something.... No, it is a better ergonomical design that is meant to be more helpful...Oh, ok, I still think you put them on wrong...

    Job, done... I have sliders, she thinks they are step rails, everyone is happy :D especially me. :cheers:

    I'm trying this one on my wife right now.. Haha. It's not going as well. Thinking I'll try the rear bumper first to protect against idiot student drivers at college..

    My wife too thought sliders were ugly and said I didnt need them becuase I had bars already (Westin step bars, bolt on). I tried explaining the HUGE difference between the two and of course she didnt get it nor care of my reasons haha. A month later I said I was getting them and she didnt refute it so that was my green light (in my mind haha). Once I finally got them painted and welded on, she went to step into the truck and said like it was nothing: "i like these better getting in then those old things you had." VICTORY (and I didnt say a word, just nodded) :yes:
