PM sent. I have a question as I wasn't expecting this commercial delivery thing. Can you tell me the size of the packing on these so I will know if it fits in the 4Runner itself if I/we have to pickup at a hub?

They will come on a standard sized 40"x48" pallet, but they will hang off the pallet about 10" on each end since the sliders are 68" long.

Is there a cost savings having it shipped to a commercial address versus a hub?

Are the in a box on the pallet? Are they just bubble wrapped? There is roughly 68.5 inches of space in the 4Runner with the back seat down, I am trying to figure out if based on the size of the sliders off the pallet will fit in the 4Runner or if I am going to need to rent a Home Depot truck or something to get them.

I don't want to drive somewhere to get them and then not be able to load them if they can't be delivered to my house.

cost is typically the same. The only difference is that the commercial address would most likely be where you work, so it would be easier to to pick them up there instead of driving to the hub.

They are just wrapped in plastic if they are raw steel, the powder coated ones will have more padding around them. I have had other customers fit the whole pallet in to the back of their runner before. Also you could remove them from the pallet at the hub if that would help. you would need some tin snips and a 9/16' wrench to remove them from the pallet.

For the guys who want the Trail logo on their step plates, here is what it will look like. I finally had some time to pull up the drawing and cut out the logo.

LOL! I do have a 9/16" socket wrench but a 6-and-3/4" (9/16') one would be hard to find!

So for commercial does that mean it has to have a loading dock?

I have access to a "commercial" address but it does not have a loading dock so it wouldn't be any different than delivering to my driveway?

PM sent by the way.

Thank you again for doing the GB!

No a loading dock would not be required. Commercial address just means that there will be someone there during business hours to help unload the pallet.

hmmmm.....I work from home, does that mean I can just ship to my house?


Side question, and I am still new to all this since I have had my 4Runner for roughly 2 weeks. Do these sliders require some sort of trim replacement? I was looking in a thread where another vendor had some rocker trim replaced with theirs, and your's was mentioned?

Please add me!

I have been on vacation for the last 1.5 weeks, hope that I am in time...

2015 with KDSS, bare metal, step plates, your new TRAIL logo.

What shipping company do you normally use? I can look up their depots versus having it shipped to a friend's business to see which one is closer.
Thank you!

If you have a residential address with someone guaranteed to be there, is that an option?

I have the same situation. I do have to go onsite sometimes but with a "heads-up" on the delivery I could make sure to be home that day?

What is the overall length and height of the logo. Trying to determine how big the slippery spot could be in winter.

I'll try to get a PM to you tomorrow with a shipping address. I didn't know it didn't come to my house. I'm retired, and no access to a commercial address, and the last time I had to pick up a freight delivery, it was an hour away and I had to rent a Home Depot truck.

My wife is going to check with someone tomorrow to see if we can have it delivered to their shop.

I wish I'd known this earlier so that I could have made arrangements.

No you will not need to replace any trim on your model 4runner for our sliders to fit.

I use a shipping company called FreightQuote which gives me quotes from multiple different freight companies at one time. Then I pick which one to go with based on price and reputation. So basically I cannot tell you at this moment which company it may end up shipping with.

PM'd you on this question

The shipment needs to go to the freight hub or a commercial address, sorry we just do not do it any other way.

logo is about 2"x6"

I will check tomorrow to see where the closest hub is to you and we will get the problem resolved, thanks
