Trail Tailor Offerings- Racks, Sliders, Control Arms and Misc

[TRAIL TAILOR]

so kinda like this?

OPOR 100 Series Land Cruiser Sliders

Are you planning on kickouts?

Yes, but no kick outs, just a straight run tube. I've seen too many kids legs/feet and dogs get hung up in them. Also my 3 x 2 portion is pitched instead of the round tube. The less area to touch an obstacle the better (they are called sliders for a reason... ). Plus the corner edge of the 3 x 2 is MUCH stronger than the flat portion of rect tube.

Here is a set of mine on a 60. These don't have the new spanner/skid plate and are 1/2" tighter to the body than the new style.

Yes, I have a participant for the AHC version. I will build them on his rig in a couple of weeks once everything gets delivered.

Are you going to have an option for people who have a body lift?

Are you going to have an option for people who have a body lift?

Yes, I have had several inquiries on this. When I get the first 100 in the shop I will measure/adjust and make notes to my jigs for body lifts. Shouldn't be to hard, but want it in my hands to touch and make it as close to the lift height as possible.

NOW FOR ALL WITH BODY LIFTS: In my past experiences......Body lifts are all over the place. A 1" lift is anywhere from 5/8" to 1-3/8" pending material and mfg. What have you guys experienced on your lifts and what mfg are you using. This will help me dial in a better end product for you all.

Just a quick update.

I'm up in Bozeman, Montana and so far, you're the closest shop that's produced anything for the 100 series.
What kind of pricing are you looking at for the sliders with the treads on them? Will they be finished/unfinished?

They will be bare metal. And looks like with all the laser goodies and mounting hardware 550.00 plus shipping.

Do you have any interest in selling a DIY kit with the parts not welded?

 

[TRAIL TAILOR]

Rack, sliders or both?

I'm mainly interested in a diy slider kit based on the prices that were listed the other day. Fun money is tight and I have a long list of other stuff that currently has priority over the cruiser so I'm really just trying to save some money.

All 100 laser cut pieces are picked up and back at the shop. I'll get a few pics tomorrow.

I also picked up a 100 while in Salt Lake as well. So bumpers will be on the to do list in the near future.

Thanks guys,
