LX570 sliders- gauging interest (1 Viewer)

[eatSleepWoof]

I actually really appreciate that Slee does not take money before having inventory in hand. Having experienced a dozen or so shops and manufacturers take anywhere from 50%-100% of my money up front and then blow deadline after deadline after deadline, I have come to the conclusion that I do not want to play that game anymore, and will only pay for products that are ready to ship.

Now how I'm going to get a pair of Slee's sliders on to my LX in British Columbia is a whole other challenge!

Road trip?

Road trip?

Roughly a ~4500km round trip. Not opposed to the idea, but it would have to happen next summer and be part of a nice three-four week trip. If the stars align...

I am in the same boat. One of us will have to make the trip to CO. Of course it would make sense to have them installed while you/me are at Slees shop and just bring yours/mine back. If you want you can drop mine off in Langley.

Ship over to my place in seattle. I’ll be happy to toss them in the side yard for you to pickup.

I would urge you to search Pelfreybilt on google and see what you get re: taking money before product is built.

Here are a couple of photo's of the latest design on my truck. The protection for the AHC parts will be available as a separate purchase since these sliders will also fit the 200.

As for the assumption that builds in the shop are more important, not really. We have more resources devoted to designing, producing and shipping products than what we have on build in the shop. Yes having the product enables us to build in the shop, but shipping them if a large part of the business.

Very interested in purchasing the underside protection for my existing Slee 570 sliders.

A little presumptuous on availability dates aren’t we

Was thinking I might be able to ship straight to a shop in WA and have them install, but failing that I'd be happy to take you up on that!

 

[johnny2five]

Add me to the list please. 2019 LX. Thanks.

 

[LXCruza]

I'm in. 2010 LX 570.

 

[brywhite]

Please add me to the list. 2016 LX

Responded to this a few days ago but it seems the thread went sideways.

Hopefully we can get it back on track.

That sounds like a good idea too! Torfab in Everett is even closer.

[pdxlc200]

add me to list. 16 LX 570

 

[ATwoZ]

I'm sure you get these offers all the time but if you need another test vehicle to make sure it fits "production variances" I am local and can leave my 2009 LX with you easily for a week and longer if you really need it.

This is of course me trying to help the greater good and facilitate the offering of this product

Ditto!

Also, will the new sliders for the LX have light hookups?

 

[sleeoffroad]

FWIW, we have emailed the first batch of people that are on the list that we have them available now. Once we have worked through the first batch, we will email the 2nd batch. The list was pretty long and since we did not have enough stock to cover the whole list and we don't expect everyone one that was on the list to commit, this is how we can do it. We will close back orders on 01/02 for anyone that we did not hear back from, then contact the rest of the people.

 

[tincan45]

How many on first batch?

 

[Lacalusa]

Would like to know too.. im number 9 on the list hopefully first batch gets me in
