    Rock Sliders > again... (Stric9)

    Ben from Stric9 has done it again - and just finished/shipped the sliders for my yellow baby.

    Should be here on Monday - so I'll throw up some pix then.

    I know there are a few companies now that do sliders for the VX, but can say without a doubt theirs are the beefiest, toughest looking I've seen...

    If you're conisdering a set, check em' out.

    Those sliders look so sweet. Very beefy. How much did they set you back?

    300 bones. 40 for shipping.

    The sliders are raw, but I'll get them finished locally.

    Thanks Biju! I can't wait to see how you decide to coat them. When I went to the powdercoater, there were 500+ colors and varying finishes to choose from.

    Ben from Stric9 posts quite often on WheelingArizona.com. If you have any ???'s you can probably get an answer there. Don't know why their site is down...may be doing maintenance of having server problems.

    garfull:

    i had the sliders powdercoated after Ben shipped them to me to save on banging them up during travel. besides, there truly are hundreds of colors, finishes, etc - and it was best i was there in person to chat with my powdercoater to get exactly what i wanted. (just food for thought...)

    i'm asss deep in my car audio build, so i'm finding it difficult to stop to take pix and post. (yeah, i'm lazy - i know). however!... bimati was over this a.m. (Thanks again Jeff!!!) to assist me in installing my OME 912 springs for the lift, and he got some pix of my VX with the sliders on. if he sends me them i'll post those...
