Does anyone have info on Bump it off-road aka BIO? Id really like to pick up a set of his step slider, a few months ago he posted he wasn’t taking order due to material shortages , now I get an error when I try to open his website.



Side note:
Id pull the trigger on some Slee or Delta sliders but haven’t been able to order those either. 1997 cats ☹ WKs are cool but I'm looking for zero deg
 
I have his front bumper, great to work with. Have you tried calling or email?

I can get his number anymore, when I click on his web adress I get this error

I am guessing their SSL has expired due to recent changes in how they are issued and the duration they last. A lot of little guys have been screwed. Anyway, Web site is fine just your browser wants it to be a HTTPS and it isn't and the SSL shows expired.

They still have the don't buy from us banner up which is an interesting way to run a business when most raw material in 1020 and 1060 is back in stock and most shortages are on 4130 .

Anyway here is their contacts page

I ordered the step sliders (that fit the running board profile) in April of 21 and Received them in December of 21. Mike was easy to work with, delivered as he said he would, etc. and I'm really happy with the sliders. If you can contact Mike and he agrees to make some for you I think you'll be really happy with them and that they'll be worth the wait.

Beyond my liking the build quality and look of the sliders (I like stock 80s as much as the modified/lifted ones) my young kids (3 and 6), wife, older parents, etc. all really like using them getting in and out of the truck. I tell them each that I got them just for them ;) Particularly for my mom it wouldn't be possible for her to get into my 80 at all without the steps and my youngest would still need my help I'm sure.

I'm definitely seeing the light on this one, I love the full top plate of the WK, Problem is I have yet to see a video or picture of anyone using a WK 10deg slider as a step for accessing the front door.
 
Sent Mike an email, His reply is he's still not taking orders. Hes trying to catch up.
 
You should reach out to 4X4 Labs, they’ll most likely work with you on your steps.
 
Yes, I purchased Mike's front bumper with some minor customization. Picked it up locally at his shop. Good guy. This was in early 2020, order placed probably late 2019, so likely a different business landscape now.
 
My 80 came with a BIO rear bumper with tire carrier and jerry can holder. I was wondering if anyone here has the ladder attachment? I like the look of Slee's ladder and wondered if BIO's is similar in style.

(I reached out to Mike last year but he didn't have any photos on him as it's a more rarely ordered option.)
 
Thread bump. Is BIOR still in business? No one picked up when I called and no email response yet. I really want some slider steps.
 
Love my BIOR step sliders. Very well built and Mike is a great guy. Be prepared to wait though. Ordered mine in Nov 2021 and picked up in June 2022.
 
To answer my own question, it appears BIOR is no more. No website or email response. I left a voicemail with no response either. Looks like I'll have to go White Knuckle.
 
That’s too bad. I’ve had mine now almost 10 years and really like them. Saved my passenger side back in January when an old woman decided she wanted to be in the same lane I was. Her DS front tire marks were all down the BIO step, but it prevented the Renegade from doing any body damage. The lower LX trim took a good scuff, but from the initial impact, I had visions of the whole side being caved.

I have White Knuckles on my Power Wagon and really like them as well, but they have a decent size diamond deck for your foot. I’ve come down HARD on them on several occasions (9K with FWC, bumpers, yada) and have used the rear kick out as a pivot on large rocks. I’ve been impressed.
