    I've been wondering the same thing. We're kinda screwed up here, fabricator wise. Plenty of options available online, but I don't really want to pay $150 for shipping

    You might call the guys at MULE in Issaquah. They can probably steer you in the right direction.

    Not much, yet.
    IIRC, there's a shop in Enumclaw that produces and sells weld-on sliders. Let me look..

    Edit: Several people on the PNW thread mentioned they do decent work. They don't advertise sliders on their website so you might have to call them about it.

    An unusually high amount of pinstriping.
    XO-fab does weld on sliders. I looked it to them, but decided to go with bolt on. If I remember right they run around $250ish and another $250ish if you want them to install them.

    I'd also hit up Adventure Ready in Queen Anne. Ask for Tom, the owner. He'll steer you straight. They're like MULE, but a better customer experience, YMMV.

    I called up both MULE and Adventure ready. They both are very friendly, knowledgable, and provide lots of info over the phone to research etc. Adventure ready seems to offer more premium products from the sound of it. The person I talked to at AR said that they are famous all over the country for electrical and people are sending trucks to them from many places across the country. He also said they have a tacoma set up in the store to look at with products. However, I think either will do fine for getting set up if you are just looking for a few things. I'm planning on visiting both the stores and checking out in person what they have. YMMV but at least there are multiple options available to us.

    I'm also thinking about getting sliders around here. I wanted DeMello Hybrids, but the shipping is $160 (from SoCal)... I imagine BAMF is not much less.

    I asked at Mule a few weeks ago about sliders. I think they carry CBI.

    Edit - In case you look, their website doesn't have everything they carry for some reason. Call them and ask or stop by their location in Issaquah. I plan on having them install an ARB front locker in the next month or so. Seem to be good people.

    There's a few fabricators down south I've heard of, not personally running any of their products. Found a few.

    There's Marshall fabrication in Vancouver
    And
    Northwest Trail Innovations(NWTI) in Battle Ground.
