We have started shipping some orders including skids and sliders. We have yet to receive our T-shirt order so some of these earlier shipments will not have them included. Rest assured though that we are keeping track and will make sure you receive them.
Once again, thank you everyone for your participation in this MASSIVE group buy!!!

As promised, got my sliders today!!! They got shipped to my parents in NJ since my apt at school didnt seem like the optimal place. I cannot wait to go home this weekend and install them.
Looking forward to the shirt shipment

Was going to install these today

But ran into a fitment issue

This is on the passenger side with the mounting holes flush with the holes in the frame. If I angle the crossmember mounting plate to fit the holes don't even come close to lining up front or rear. Any suggestions. Calling Shrockworks Monday for some ideas.

Sent him a pm. Even with the snag the sliders are awesome and very well built. They are definitely going to hold up to some serious abuse. I will snag a better pic if need be but in the first one you can tell a big difference in the angle of the crossmember mounts between the driver and passenger side. I heard the ups guy struggling with the box when they got delivered. Wonder if he manged to bend the mounting plate :redbrick: Said he had been "tripping" over them all day.

[MENTION=72341]NJshadow93[/MENTION] and I got my passenger slider installed today. It was pretty frustrating. I busted my balls to paint them last night and wound up stripping half the freakin thing back down to bare steel, hard to balance on the jack, tight clearances, had to break the XREAS line holders and slip the brackets behind the hard lines. We'll see if I can get the other one on tomorrow.
On another night I wired up my 41" LED bar and holy hell its amazing.

So after inspecting the mounting plates and mulling it over with my father (he's really great with stuff like this) I'm guessing something happened during shipping. The passenger side crossmember mount is almost bent 90 degrees. I'm going to double check with Mark tomorrow to make sure it will work and not damage the integrity of the mounting point, but since I lack the tools I'm going to have a shop bend the mount for me.
Even with the small delay I absolutely love these sliders very well made and designed. I would highly recommend these to anyone in the market for rock sliders. Hope Mark can confirm my plan and I can get these bad boys on and start beating on them!

Don't the instructions say you can stand on the brackets to shape them if needed?

Yes. rant forthcoming. I got the second one on today. The gas tank bolt was literally impossible to do the way the instructions stated. the front bracket was all bent out of shape, it was a nightmare.

[MENTION=67817]pimpsta[/MENTION] did you find out anything new about shipping date?

Sorry to hear your having issues as well. so did you end up standing on the sliders to get the bracket to bend or other methods?

Your on the right track. It looks like the angled tab got slammed by a UPS guy or two. If you have a couple of big cressent wrenches, I would try using them as a lever to bend the tab back to its proper position before paying someone to do it for you.
We try to pack these things for war, but we cant win them all.
