    @Mobtown Offroad well shit man. Really sorry to see you go. I still think your sliders are the strongest around. I recommended you guys everywhere I went. Really bummed about this and the fact I'm not going to win anymore free Mobtown stuff from raffles.

    Damn. Sad to hear about the closure. Granted I never got any of the big ticket items, but I've been super happy with my locking bed cubby doors these past few years. Good luck on your future endeavors.

    Sad to see you guys go. Wanted a set of your sliders. Sent some msgs on fb and instagram inquiring only to get no response.
    Assumed you guys closed right up. now my assumption is correct.
    Best of luck to you.

    I recently had a bit of an adventure with some sliders from Mobtown that had some fitment issues and I had to modify to make work. Joe was great, compensated me for my time (even if it took some hounding to get it closed out). Now that I know he must have been in the process of this sale, I'm even more impressed, because he could have just ignored me and it wouldn't have mattered for him at all. Not a lot of people would have made sure I was squared away when they were in the process of closing shop, so thank you Joe, and best of luck in the next endeavor!

    Hey Joe, I know you’re taking a lot of heat around here lately but I just wanted to say thanks for the great customer service I received on the couple things I ordered and the high quality of you’re fabrication. Good luck on your future endeavors!

    Hi Joe, sorry to hear this. Wishing you the best of luck to what ever the future brings you.
    I am still rocking the rear bumper from you and loving it.

    Edit: Forgot to mention I have the locking doors for the bed cubbies as well from you.

    Joe, saddened to hear about closing the business. Have your single swingout bumper and locking cubby door for my 20 Taco and freakin love em. Quick question (tried pm but wouldn't let me). Do you know where I could get a replacement bolt and hex nut (see pic below red arrow - oversized bolt that holds swingout)?

    RCI is a good guess.

    Interesting to hear about the acquisition. Just speculating, but it's gotta be 1) a western U.S. company wanting to expand operations in the east and/or 2) a growing mid-tier player trying to grow overnight and dominate the market.

    It is a zinc plated grade 5 bolt. Thread pitch is 1-8 for the bolt. Matching nylon locking nut. I can’t recall the bolt length. Just measure the one you have. You can get them from mcmaster.com

    Well, this is a bummer.

    20210903_092237.jpg

    Steel IFS skid, aluminum trans skid, tailgate reinforcement plate and cap... all from Mobtown.

    Always made good product, nobody can argue against that.
