  1. Step Slider Recommendations

    @PWillette Thank you, yes, made right in-house here in the USA. 100% frame mounted, so built so they can take a beating yet still be a functioning step. Also, just past the curve of the outer doors, so urban armor too. They bite back at door-ding attempts! We even have a set in stock at...

    ---SOLD___ We have ONE Factory FORD winch mount, with all sub-frame support brackets (frame supports), new in original Ford packaging. This is the dealer install option kit to add a winch to your 6G. Includes: Winch mount Hoop to protect the winch FULL OEM Ford frame support kit ($$$...
  3. Rock rails/Steps - current ones aren't good enough

    The discounted pricing on the Bronco sliders is the promotion we have been running on them for the last few months. At the end of January, we will increase prices by about 5%. We hope to continue to see our B6G products sell; however, since they will be about $200 than other frame-mounted...
  4. Rock rails/Steps - current ones aren't good enough

    I agree 100%. When your order came in, it should have been confirmed immediately as either local pickup or canceled. That didn’t happen, and that's on us. I wish we could build sliders the way we do and still offer free shipping at the $899 price point. Unfortunately, with current production...
  5. Rock rails/Steps - current ones aren't good enough

    Chris, I am disappointed we, Metal-tech 4x4, could not make this right the way you wanted. My call today was in response to your Dec. 29th email asking for a call. I did not ask for an additional $300 for shipping. Your order did not include the flat $199 shipping rate we offer for all...
  6. Aces High Rear Bumper by Metal-tech 4x4 - Full Modular System - Build Out As You Wish

    It adds about 175lbs to your rig in the whole stage 3 configuration. Thank you, we make it to work hard and last. We never tested it on a Raptor. The BR has extra frame bracing in the rear that I think would need the bumper to have the side supports at the frame notched for. Just did not...
  7. Aces High Rear Bumper by Metal-tech 4x4 - Full Modular System - Build Out As You Wish

    We have one left that is not listed on our site. We have been holding off on advertising it since we are doing a last run of the CNC-machined pull points to go with it. We had to move our CNC mill, and it's taking a bit to get new electrical to it. This last one will be a full stage 3...
  8. Frame Mounted Rock Sliders by Metal-tech 4x4 - Made in house here in the USA

    Absolutely! Na, RRR, or Triple R is a fictitious name for an old cattle brand from the 1800s. "Bronco" related, just like the very rock sliders we put them on: "Sidewinders", named after the rattlesnakes you find in the west. Mark
  9. Frame Mounted Rock Sliders by Metal-tech 4x4 - Made in house here in the USA

    The Triple R (RRR) sliders have the Pinch Weld Guard. This is new as of about 8 months ago. All of our sliders are getting them now. It is definitely there to block the large open gap and the wonderful large pinch weld under the body Ford gave us. There is always a potential for the...
  10. Frame Mounted Rock Sliders by Metal-tech 4x4 - Made in house here in the USA

    Yup I would say so. Gotta love the Rubicon, it's all going great, then suddenly an unassuming big ass rock shows up on your blindside. Oh man, I can only imagine for building codes. I usually leave those types of comments up (vendors are also their own section Mods) as most can see through...
  11. Frame Mounted Rock Sliders by Metal-tech 4x4 - Made in house here in the USA

    I love sliders for pivoting. Pull up on a tree, turn to engage the front of the slider, turn hard and get on it. Pivot! Our current Bronco is a 7spd so Ford does not allow us the fancy turn button the autos get. No idea why not, but we just get a missing button on the dash to hold $1.25...
  12. Frame Mounted Rock Sliders by Metal-tech 4x4 - Made in house here in the USA

    "Trigger" welding has very poor penetration and is not a process used in commercial production environments. I was not standing next to him when he welded these (including those commenting), but I can tell you that if I ever hear someone doing that, it's usually self-evident by sound...
  13. Frame Mounted Rock Sliders by Metal-tech 4x4 - Made in house here in the USA

    Anytime aftermarket items jockey for real estate on our rigs, one does exactly this = modify to fit. If someone had welded new mounts on, then just weld a mounting pad with intigrated 1/2-13 bolts for the rear foot. Easy quick and allows removing the sliders anytime for recoating etc...
  14. Frame Mounted Rock Sliders by Metal-tech 4x4 - Made in house here in the USA

    The frame mount location photos are of the original test fit of the first production sliders. Never intended to be used for marketing, but happy to share them. This is a production raw slider, identical to the ones we currently ship. Bolts/mounts: The mounting you are seeing is for the 2D...
  15. Frame Mounted Rock Sliders by Metal-tech 4x4 - Made in house here in the USA

    Absolutely. 100% bolt-on, we do NOT touch the body. These are all frame-mounted. The rear mount picks up the extra-reinforced part of the lower link mount. Clears any aftermarket links without issue. This leaves a very clean line under the frame. 4D: Picks points on the face and...
