I took some pics last night just so you guys know i'm still working!!!
I'm back on these like mad! I had to take a few days off for of all things funerals. I have been to 3 funerals in less than a month. Not good!!! So here is a set I finished up last night and a nice pile of materials. Oh yea, I got me a new saw to cut the compound angles!! Now i'm really rockin! This set gets rust converter and spray on bed liner, so i'll post pics of that process also. Thanks guys!!

You're buddy could have been referring to the slider under the transfer case, it looks like it did it's job.
No guts, no glory.

No, still working on truck orders. I wouldn't say the install is easy but not too difficult either. The toughest part is the rear mounts, not a lot of room to work on the inside of the frame when you go to bolt them on. Did you get the mounting instructions I emailed to you?

Got a couple sets done, just waiting on a descent day to spray some primer on them. If the weather doesn't get any better I may have to spray them in my shop. I also got a couple more sets cut out and ready to weld up. Should be able to get one set welded up per night. The sliders with steps take a little longer but now that I have my new double bevel saw they shouldn't be too bad. I use that saw on the slider tubes and the step tubes, both have compound angles.

I am impressed with what was shipped to me. I had them in my truck and stopped by the local 4x4 shop. The owner wanted the manufactures number. I told him they are custom made and they were all surprised at the precision quality. Darren Evans rocks so I gave them his number.
