Very interested - although a challenge to ship.

Curious if the brackets could be ordered separately - I can do the simple part of adding the actual step.
Could be shipped fedex/ups/usps.

Which part is the brackets? Like just the part that clamps the frame?
 
I’m still grinning about them this evening!
Thanks for rubbing it in our faces

If the sliders don't get sold/shipped as bolt-on ready, the customer base can dwindle, if not almost vanish.

Oh, sorry don’t mean for everyone - just me! Anyways I would wait to see the shipping price to even see if that saves $$.
 
@Ramathorn15 I'm wanting to get a set of your mud flaps to go with these sliders. Are these for sure going to be available to ship some time in the next few months? Don't want to get the flaps if I'm not going to be buying sliders. I don't mind the look of the running boards and stock flaps and will just sick with it the way it is if I can't get your sliders and flaps cause I need a step for kids and wife.

Unfortunately I can't make any guarantees. I'm hoping to start getting these out in the near future, but some other work projects are taking up a good bit of my time right now. Hopefully things start calming down soon, but then I'll likely be focused on flaps for a bit until they're all shipped out. It's tough working a regular job and trying to get these sorted too.
 
Would you post pictures of the powder coated slider?

I don't have any as of yet. Wasn't able to get to install this weekend so they're still sitting in the garage wrapped in foam padding.

@89BIGBLUE might be willing to show a couple shots of his with powder. I think they turned out pretty awesome, but I am biased.
 
I haven't weighed the final version, but I'd say they're less than 80lbs per side. I'll get a final number soon.

First non Owl Expedition 100 test fit went well today. The spacing between the body and the slider was slightly different, but within 1/8" of the 1/2" that it's supposed to be. Because this design doesn't allow for adjustability, I think it's just going to be the nature of the beast based on small variances in each vehicle. Visually you can't tell.

These look great! Keeping an eye out!
 
I never understood why nobody was making a run of rectangle tube sliders in the past, awesome to see it being done

Wondering what people would be doing for using a hi-lift jack on these? Round tube sliders you can use an adapter and a lot of bumpers have a slot to put jack in - any features on these to keep the jack from sliding out of position?
 
These look great! Count me as an interested party.

Bit random @Ramathorn15 but the black LX you used for a test fit, is that a Mud member? I’ve got the same color combo and noticed that LX had white letters out on their BFGs, would love to see more pics of that set up.

Sure! If it’s Ok with you, @Ramathorn15.

This is after putting on some grip tape trimmed to 5” wide.
I’ll see if I can find a few more pics today.
I coated them a color to try and match the color on the bumpers.
 
What’s the latest on these sliders ?

I think @Ramathorn15 is buried in a residential domicile project, and may emerge soon. He has not stalled out on these, just a very busy fellow!
If he doesn’t show up here in a week, I will do a wellness check on him!
