I have a design for these, but I've never made any bec I thought they would be too expensive. People keep asking though, so I thought I'd throw it out there.

They would allow you to lift std sliders 2" which is fine for 2in or 3in body lifts. They should work fine with any brand of sliders.

They would probably be about $85.00 - $95.00.

Any interest in this?

Absolutely Jim, once i buy sliders (from you wink ) i dont want to hassel selling them and rebuying later down the line if i decide to do a lift (which i think i may but not for a while)

As long as the brackets keep the strength i think it would be an awesome option.

I would be game, although post-body lift, the slider I dare say, makes a good step now.

Would the strength of the slider, in general, stay the same? I guess if you would offer it, it would be strong.

I have no plans on a BL, but I think it's a good idea. If someone bought sliders as their first mod and then decides to body lift it, it would suck to have to buy new sliders. The $85 or so it would cost for the bracket is still probably less than the hit you would take trying to resell your old sliders to buy new ones.

I'm interested. I do agree with Bikeman that they make a good step now after the 2" BL,(especially since I put some 3M grip tape on mine,) but I don't like the look of the gap. I would definately consider buying them.

Same here. I actually have a BL that should be coming on the way here in a little bit. As long as it is going to keep the same strenght then I'll be interested in it.

Steiny just flip yours over and bolt them on the opposite sides of the vehicle.

hey Dan, ever hear back from Jim on these? although im sure these are lower on his priority list with all the other fab work he has going on, i was just hoping for a "yay" or "nay" on the future of these.
