    I was in search of DIY sliders and RRW came out with some for the double cab originally then the option disappeared from their website and after reading reviews I decided to look elsewhere.

    I reached out to these guys who fab some nice looking off-road products for double cab DIY sliders and here is what we came up with. I plan to order in 2 weeks. Please reach out to them with further questions if needed.

    Per our email conversation -

    - .120" wall DOM is ~ 4.50$ per foot, and .188" wall is 7.50$ p/f

    - .120" wall DOM slider kit w/ kickout, pre-notched and pre-bent set-up for 102" (double cab) length: 549.95$

    Shipping via UPS: 185.34$ to the address given (Houston).

    Total: 735.29$

    - We normally send the sliders of our standard lengths with 3 frame standoff tubes; extra long ones that we make get 4. There will also be an additional main slider tube support to accommodate the extra length as well.

    - DIY sliders ship via UPS. The package can be pretty expensive as it ends up long and heavy.
    I always recommend having them shipped somewhere that you can be available to assist your UPS driver; this helps ensure they're not too upset at having to move a large, annoying package around and possibly get damaged.

    Hope this helps some of you DIY guys out there like myself! Cheers!

    btw I am in no way affiliated with this fabricator. Just did some google searching and they popped up!

    Did you end up ordering these? If so, just wondering how you found working with a private guy as opposed to the big gunners put there.

    I just found a local guy who does truck mods, work and welding and was asking about sliders. He came back with a a competitive price, so I'll probably drive out to see him the spring to talk to them in person and get more details.
