They ARE a good wheelbase! Almost the same as SWB vit, and right in the middle of SWB and LWB sierra.

I hope they arnt like the fancy arse sierra ones cant justify $800 for a fancy slider which are going to cop a floggin. not saying the price is a rip off, quality in the slider is great lots of work put into them.

but make some basic ones for people who want to actually use them for rocks lol rather than there step to get in there show car coily :D:D

You could always pay $50 for sliders that won't cop a flogging, then you'll complain.

How about you make your own. You clearly don't want to pay much more than the value of materials, and my time is worth actual money, so I don't think I'll be able to help you.

They wouldnt get smashed up anyway. They'd get scratched, like any other slider does.

lol bunch of bitches ha ha ha ha ha seriously go get a root and stop being so uptight...and I clearly stated they are a good design..... and worth the money being asked for them.... im just asking if anyone will make a basic design.

plus I only paid $200 for my arb winch bar in near perfect condition so eat a dick, shop smart instead of buying shit to just say u have it and gloat how much u were ripped off lol

and dont bitch back, I wont bite. u will just be making yaself angry lol.

I did last weekend :thefinger:
A good quality basic slider is still not going to be cheap. It takes some one times to build one. If you don't want to pay for some ones time then just go zip tie a piece of steel to your sill.
