    decent shipping, 20% discount code (SLIDER20). and not painted.

    I have purchased other metal fab parts from this vendor for my 1972 Toyota FJ40 before.

    I am not affiliated with them either but have been shopping for decent sliders with low shipping costs when they contacted me with this deal.

    Pics to come during install and after.

    I had powder coated metal tech sliders on my 4Runner. They took some real abuse with no problems. I’d just touch up the undersides with a rattle can after a trip. No complaints.

    Yes, Metal Tech did have one left that was powdered coated but I decided to either use POR 15 or an etching epoxy primer and paint.
    Or bring it to a powder coating place to get it powdered coated.

    I doubt this truck will see any real 4 wheeling but wanted to stop the complaints from my passengers about the step on or off this lifted truck.

    The sliders shipped out from the West coast to NJ in a week.
    Washed, degreased, and treated using POR chemicals before rattle can spraying with POR Top coat paint.
    Installed easily enough without drilling.
    An improvement to the driver's side slider would be to have the middle and rear frame bracket wrap underneath the truck's channel beam and to drill a hole per bracket.
    Enjoy the eye candy.
    Each slider weighs approximately 90 pounds.
