    Hopefully the fact that they havent responded to you guys is because their super busy with the amount of orders that they have instead of them doing a Pelfreybilt on us (its possible with all the small businesses that went bankrupt during the covid-19 quarantine). I ordered my sliders on 04/24/2020 and havent gotten a shipping notice yet, its going to be 2 months soon on a product that their page says takes 4-5 weeks.

    Edit: Btw have you guys tried contacting them on their facebook page to see if they respond to you there? For those that dont know about what happened with Pelfreybilt heres some background info: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K607mJqTiOQ

    I'm fine waiting a little longer. They missed their timeframe on my sliders, but the arrived.

    really? They haven’t responded to an email so now they are bankrupt and everyone lost their money? Is that really the logical thing to post? Despite people receiving orders, albeit at a slower pace, that’s where we are going with this thread?

    Im not saying that their bankrupt im just pointing out that its weird that they stopped responding to peoples emails and messages and that its starting to be several weeks after the lead times posted on their website with no updates. You gotta admit there are alot of similarities to the Pelfreybilt situation where they went silent before their bankruptcy and people were waiting several months for their orders. If it can happen to a popular vendor like Pelfreybilt it can happen to RCI who is a newer vendor.

    I would go so far as saying RCI is established. Everyone has longer lead times right now; it just is what it is. Scroll back through this thread, orders are shipping.

    Just ordered a ski from them almost 2 weeks ago. Makes me reconsider and just getting the TRD but wanted to support small business

    not sure why but it always seems like you hear horror stories on armor manufactures

    A week behind isn't terrible. That's about where they were on my sliders. I am hoping my skids show up before the 4th. That would be 6 weeks.

    I actually don’t mind the wait. It’s when it gets pushing out and I don’t get an straight answer if one at all that bugs me

    I tried using the contact form on their website but it kept giving me errors so I sent them a message on Facebook and got a response within an hour. They said that they were going to print out my order and send it to the fabrication team and put priority on it. The rock sliders that I ordered say a lead time of 4-5 weeks on their website and it had already been 7 weeks and 6 days, they said that my order should be "squared away within the next week".

    I ordered my full skids on 4/20 (8 weeks + 6 days today). Received a message last 6/10 which is 9 days ago, informed me that my skids were ready to ship but didn’t receive a tracking number. I did call them today and I was surprised someone answered my call. I spoke to Ted (he is a nice guy), they are really crazy busy for months now. Finally he sent me the tracking number an hour after we spoke, and I will be receiving my skids on Monday. Worth the wait guys. You’ll be the next.

    It's funny. I was going back and forth, then I went into Northern Maine and the dust there is unreal. I am taking a weekend to visit a friend to do the fender cut (he has good tools and a nice garage) before we make another trip up there.

    Yeah, Utah gets a little dusty. Hence why I have a snorkel after that trip.
