Pretty sweet. If I'd known they made sliders too I would've totally copped some. Post pics once they're installed!

Yea, not sure when they will be released to buy, but they have measurements for the TE with and without KDSS.

Sweet photos - I love the look of both the trucks.
Every time I see the Walker Evans wheels and the grille on the Metal Tech 4Runner I spontaniously start to drool.
I may need to make a trip down to Portland....

Do like the looks of these. How much do they weigh? Can they be welded on?

I am sure you'll find they can be welded on.

Not sure on the weight, but they are not as heavy as they look. The main portion of the slider is their "gull wing" design that is hollow on the inside. However, it is very strong since it is well reinforced. As far as welding them on, I am sure you could since they are just flat plates against the frame. Metal Tech could probably answer better though.

Definitely look forward to seeing how these look and review after you off-road with them. Are they powder coated? (seem rhetorical but I thought I'd ask). If they're the same price as the FJ version ($650) they may be something I'd consider over the budbuilts since I could just drive down and pick them up, which makes them less expensive since I don't have to incur shipping costs (which puts the BBs at about $900 after powder coat and the trip from NC to WA).

Awesome. I'm contemplating going with MT as well. Looks like top quality product.

We are very close to releasing the Metal Tech version and the Outpost Off Road as well. We have to do a slight re-design on the bolt on gusset for the KDSS and we just recently had an SR5 in so there will be two different version for those that that want the TE or SR5/Limited.
