Thumbs up Look great...

I almost had a set last week on my way out to CALX2 but they just finished shipping yours and fourty others out just days before I called...

They look and perform great. Totally worth the money IMO.

Pro's and cons. I think they look great. They look like part of the truck.

Con, they don't extend out very far from the body (actually not much at all) and I would prefer more protection from a wider bar.

That's the reason the EOE ones are designed using a 2x4 for the main rail which allows full protection and use as a step....they also will help fend off side impacts.

Tellico, trail No. 5.
You had to use the rock slider as a pivot point and slide down the rock on the right.

Thanks Schlud, but I still haven't seen the angle I wanted. Don't sweat it.

When you do, let me know. Just give me enough notice so I can get some skid plates. How long do they take to deliver once you place an order?

What angle do you want Mike ?

like most comapnies it depends on if they have them in stock or not. but if they do, he can box them up that night and i would say a week or so to be delivered, just to be safe. the cheapest way to send them is ground which is why. so ground from Pennsylvania to Florida shouldn't be too bad.

they are worth it. if you get only the gas tank skid, it is worth it.

Cool Sliderz...

Yea, those are my rock sliderz I received from Calmini...They have been tested on and off-road and I am very happy with them...When I replaced my shocks, I tested them with my hi-lift jack & they are extremely solid...Though I had to open the front door to prevent the hi-lift from hitting the door...But that's ok with me.

I recommend the Calmini Sliderz to everyone...Plus they arrived at my home only 4 days after I ordered them...WoW:ylsuper
