Some of you guys have inquired about the sliders some of us CLC guys are running. James (makes them) says that he can't do them for $150 anymore. $200 is his price. Steel has gone up and he would like to make a little money on these. They are time consuming to make and he does a great job. I have seen these things take a beating and they never fail to do the job. They will come painted and ready to weld on the truck. Still a bargain for $200 and the only way to go for a 40 that wants to run the stock running boards. Let me know who wants a set and I will bring them to the Crawl.

Later,

PScottBx · 09-19-07, 09:35 PM

Thanks Jeff... I'll have to find those pics again for you. They are very very nice. $200 is a good price as well. I'm changin directions for a little while or I would have me a set!

Donny will make these for the cost of steel only. I talked to him this week. He is just interested in helping with our sickness. All you have to show pics or designs. He has all metal working tools, benders,etc........ He has a large shop that would hold at least 5 cruisers. I have watched the wrenching thread and the club's delima with the rain, but he doesnt have ramps for his bay doors....yet. sorry.

Isaac I don't want to dip into Jeff's buddy's business as they've been very good to us and have offered to go out of their way for us but I sure appreciate Donny's offer and we have several guys wanting Donny to look at bumpers and many other things. I think we'll take him on it if he's willing to help that sure is great of him.

Thanks again.

Well put... Wasn't sure how to word the same thing. No insult indended to the MS boys and still want to say thanks to Donny. I don't wanna pee on Choctaw's offer b/c his prices are very very good and seems to be an awesome product. However, I absoutely want to take Donny up on his offer of welding skillz if it stands. I would like a rear tire carrier of sorts and I need a roll cage since it's required and the Troopy has zip!

I'd also like a roof rack such as these guys make:

Thanks much Isaac .. and Donny in advance...

Later,

Fine by me...and...still a great deal...ain't worth my time...even with all the equipment and materials, I'd lose money if I took off work even half-a-day to build these! Quite a bargain IMHO. Painted and all.

I'm sending my $$$ up with Dan Tuesday...

third coast cruisers · 09-23-07, 03:34 PM

yes anyone in the club need these sliders last chance for you to have them free of shipping costs.

the dan train heads out tuesday and returns thurs.

if sliders are not avail thurs my sister lives in jackson and she is coming in on sat.

i will be going back and forth during october so the deal is still good for me to pick them up later.

this just a last call before SCC BABY AIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

i am pumped load the truck.

Bodean · 09-23-07, 05:38 PM

We will probably have a few sets ready by the time Dan rolls through. James ran out of gas while installing the Trained Killa's Metal Tech Cage. He will resupply tomorrow and start on them probably Tuesday.

Later,

When you said BJ40, my eyes opened a little (usually you have to say BJ42 to get mine to widen...) turns out it's an FJ40.

So the ad is wrong?

sparkplug · 09-26-07, 07:06 AM

Is this BJ-40 tan with a like red stripe? Is it right hand drive? If so, I have seen it. The owner came by my house after I heard about him through a local mechanic. He said he paid 10 k. It is from Australia. Looked like it had a lot of bondo work. especially around the tub area.

tabascoloco · 09-26-07, 07:43 AM

The Ad that Scott found is an FJ

That's not it...yours is likely correct bud.

POST IT.....or let Scott continue the search...

"Used not working 8000 # Warn winch. Am told needs solenoid pack. Make an offer. In south Baton Rouge."
Reply to: sale-433447818@craigslist.org

I am not affiliated with the seller. I will pick it up for someone & deliver to a meeting, if they want to buy it

I'll post a heads up over at LA4x4 later this afternoon, if someone over there hasn't already done so by then

tabascoloco · 09-27-07, 08:42 AM

If somebody wants this...I'll offer any parts/help to get it rebuilt and working for anyone in our club...

Volunteer · 09-27-07, 08:59 AM

I'd like to have it myself, but doing some other things. I priced that solonoid pack when I was redoing mine trying to get just the cover. Its $110 dollars.

tabascoloco · 09-29-07, 11:20 AM

Okay, the sliders are Massive...alot beefier than I pictured...Thanx Dan...Thanx Jeff....now to put'em to the test...
