80 series sliders on sale at Metal Tech

[Rwhat]

Just a heads up. I got a email from MT and the sliders are on sale at 20% off using code "Rock Crusher" $899.95 to $719.96

LT is a great person to deal with. Just posted this since alot of mudders don't check the vendors section.

Hmmmm.... I "need" these. Thanks!

 

[cahill]

Did you also see the tube bumper with engo winch? insane. I'm going back and forth against the Iron Man bull bar or the tube bumper. I drive in a lot of brush so it's an issue.

Likewise!... That's a chunk off too, MT is what I eventually want as well.

Another mudder/friend here bought the Ironman bull bar (non commercial)and it's pretty nice. Led turn signals/marker lights and fog lights. The fog lights are actually brighter than the factory LX450 headlights.

If I wasn't in need of a front bumper right now, I'd jump on it

Anybody know is MT sliders interfere with MAF control arm drop brackets?

You will have to weld the driver front mount to the frame due to man-a-fre's design for the drop down bracket. Otherwise the passenger side works just fine

What LT said. And the other option is to remove the MAF kit, go with a plat caster kit at the axle like these: Metal Tech 4x4 - FJ80 Land Cruiser Caster Correction Plates The plates are bolt on and so are the sliders then.

As far as we know there are no bolt on sliders that work with the MAF drop bracket caster kit that don't require welding.

Any issues with the IPOR skid plate or over-frame exhaust systems?

IPOR skid plate works for both the 93/94 and 95/97 era sliders, however the 93/94 does take a little work to make both items fit together but it does work.

I would have to see a picture of what your exhaust looks like to determine if our sliders would work with your custom application.

Currently running Slee sliders, but like the rear kick-out with the MT design for sure. Here are a few pics of how the EMS goes through the current setup and frame.

It looks like everything is tucked up higher than a factory exhaust, if that's the case then I don't see why our cat guard would be an issue.
