A long shot... Marlin Crawler rock sliders??

[85 Jimmy]

I know Marlin Crawler is geared towards Toyota guys, but has anyone used their rock sliders on our K trucks?? I always liked the DPI deep woods (IIRC) sliders and it looks like the 60" sliders from Marlin Crawler are similar.

Has anyone here used them on our trucks??

Look interesting, and up to 80" length available

Wonder how much fitting to fit our frames...

Look the same as these, right?

 

[Bent77]

No, the Marlin ones have the brace tubes at a 90* angle to the main pipe

And half the price

 

[Bent77]

Just for S&G, the 80" might fit my k10, about 6-8" to each tire, didn't look too close at where the leaf spring mounts might interfere with the slider mounting
I presume some field engineering would be necessary
Price on shipping: $35

What’s wrong with Diy4x?

 

[skunked]

I ran trail gear sliders for a little while. Different lengths are available.

Only knock on them is they are a K5 slider. They mount different and they are shorter. Price is close though

Price is close though

well.....

By the time I added an extra stantion tube, dimpled filler plates and freight mine were around $550.

Those extras are your fault!

Truth

I looked at the DIY. I was gonna have to cut them to fit the k10 and add pipe. We’ll see how the MC fit, I did order some

Sure look good on a toy! Interesting to see them on a k10.

I’ll probably be ordering a set for my K5 in the next couple weeks. The 60” should fit a K5 pretty well.

Thats kinda what I thought. I’ll keep the details on my build thread. Probably be a few weeks

If there's one thing I wish was different on my rig, that would be a HUGE PITA to change now, are my sliders.
I wish I took the plunge and cut my rockers out, giving myself just that little bit more ground clearance. With the cage tied in to them, it would be a major undertaking to change now.
Just a thought to anyone who is already using their truck for mostly offroad anyway.

Before you order, ask them if they will send out a set with no mounts welded on. Then you weld on whatever you need to fit your K truck. Less work for them, less work for you. Maybe they will even knock some $$ off

Too late! I was under the assumption the bar is separate from the kickers. We’ll see Monday maybe
