Decent Rock Sliders?

Post by mike_nofx »

Im looking to get some rock sliders for my 105 cruiser.

Just wondering if anyone can reccomend a supplier in NSW (or anywhere if they deliver) to get a decent set... for a decent price!

My ARB deluxe tube side steps have finally been destroyed (1 anyway) so need an upgrade.

Thanks
Mike

Have you thought about having a crack at making some yourself?

Have thought about making my own, but for the time and effort involved to me it's easier to just buy a tried and tested product.

While I'm certain I could do the job, someone who does this for a living SHOULD do a much neater job. So basically I'm finding out those who do.

I will look into 2dextreme, thanks

Mates looking at getting his 105 done.

Dale hasn't done a 105 before. His price was around $1000 AFAIK

I have contacted 2DEXTREME via email just now.

Can anyone had any experience with the loctup sliders?

They come with 3 mounting legs which you just cut to length, and mount yourself (I can do this) They sell for $499 delivered.
http://locktup4x4.com.au/landcruiser-87 ... h-566.html

They would be less than half of 2DEXTREME's, but of course are not quite as nice, and not quite complete.

But if they are tuff enough, and protect my sills, thats all that matters.

bubs will do sliders however you want and design permitting they will be ALOT less then $1G. his work is pretty damn good and hes on here alot so if he does a shit job you can shame him quite well :finger:

other option is bolsy, does more sliders than most and logic would say this is because he has a good product. also alot cheaper than dale
turbos are nice but i'd rather be blown

I've been cosidering the Locktup sliders, but they are designed to be welded straight to the chassis. That's not something that I want to do, I'd prefer something that bolts on. You could just fab your own bolt on brackets, but this adds to the final cost.
