I got this recommended on Thursday Jan 25, 2024 since I’m picking up my 2023 TRD OR ACab on Saturday and watching all kinds of Tacoma videos. Cool build lucky you have lots of space a drive away. ETA: had a look at your channel and liked the videos so you got a new subscriber.
I’d like to offer a perspective about bolt vs weld. A bolt has 50,000 psi of strength. The tube is 50,000 psi of strength. The weld is 70,000 psi of strength but the heat effected area of the metal surrounding the weld has now been weakened to 30,000 psi of strength.
Ohh I wasn’t set on the 25 degree angle or zero, but now that you mention rubbing your leg on it, I forgot my old truck I had wide ones on and I was always getting mud on my legs, was annoying sometimes when your in your uptown clothes and didn’t have time to wash the truck and bam mud everywhere on pants, seat of the truck and everything else I touched till I noticed haha. 25 degrees it is this time around haha.
Something I regret not getting on my last Tacoma, since I dont plan on taking this truck offroad I probably wont get these but I agree better than a lift better than tires! Its a must!
Nice Cement Tacoma. My favorite color, might wrap my ‘23 TRD OR Access Cab Cement as I don’t care for black, I did get $1,043 off MSRP though. I like the Cali Raised sliders as they include powder coating and top plate for less and they are DOM tubing.
It's always good to go with quality Sliders, that's for sure. I went with Demello Offroad. I went with their Hybrid Sliders, and their Baja front bumper. Top quality parts.
So true…. I’m losing my 4Runner (write-off) on Wednesday cause no sliders, just running boards 🥴 now is the time to get sliders for my Tacoma. Toyota threw in the steps on my Taco at purchase so was a later thing, that’s turned into now thing 😅. Just deciding on a brand 🤔
Got in on the Trail Tacoma RRW Slider group buy!Just waiting here patiently for um!Lemme tell you..It ain’t EZ!,😂 Just got done with slapping sum CBI Full aluminum skids on.Waiting on my CBI gas tank skid also😏
Group buys are a good way to save some cash. But the wait will get to ya. Lol. I too am looking at more skids for under the truck.. the gas tank could be next!!
Totally understandable, customs can be a bitch for sure. And the back orders are outrageous right now. But you’ll be happy once you have a set of quality sliders!!
@jarod144 How are you liking your RCI sliders? About how far do they stick out and do you use them as a step and do they make it awkward getting in and out if used for step? If not used as step do you constantly rub back calf’s getting in and out?
Hey man I have a question about the cbi rock sliders I just installed them and the slider on the passenger side rubs the pinch weld did that happen to you and how did you fix it?
Yeah I had the same issue. The way I fixed it was to loosen the front bolts and pull the slider down before tightening them back up. You can have someone stand on the slider to keep it in place while you tighten the bolts.
I'm looking to do just a 2" leveling kit. So really torn about what kind of sliders to do. Mainly want it to not get the door dinged when parked around town.
I have that lift currently, and it is a good piece of mind on some trails. Sliders can help protect from door dings of the car is low enough. May not from a larger vehicle.
Any chance you could do a video showing the dimensions....Like how far they are off the ground, how far they stick out past the doors. Some good side shots....? I really lie these compared to some of the others that I think are too short in the front, gap at the front on some look like 10" or so.
Mumf, every time I see a new video of yours your Taco gets to look more bitchin' than the last ... real nice sliders ... seriously dude .. your Taco looks like a mean bad ass ... very nice looking ... the color and the mods you have done ... yeah! I went with steps for now, cause I'm not off-roading yet, but I thank you much for this info ... no I need to see how much they cost LOL
Went with BA Revo's . No way in hell some damn rock sliders should cost over a grand and up to 3. Revo's are awesome and they do the job well. 25 degree angle and they stay tucked in close to the body.
@@Mumfy64 BA (Body Armor) are responsible for other items such as the hidden winch Hiline bumpers that are also pretty dang awesome. The Revo's are sturdy and have kept me off of more than a few rocks. Tons of scratches, not a single ding and I've hit pretty hard a few times.

Side note.....what tripod do you use? Looking for a new tripod lol
What camera are you using? If you’re just using your phone a manfrotto with a phone clip will work great.
It’s definitely a must for protection for sure. And if you can get one that looks great, all the better
@@Mumfy64 I use a cannon G7x or Cannon 80D
I like the White Knuckle Off Road sliders. The plates match my diamondback cover. Your videos are really improving in quality. Thanks!
I haven't heard of that company, but happy you've found a set that fits your style!! Thanks for you continued support!!

For sure! Quality is key. There are so many great brands out there
Definitely DOM vs welded for strength. I bought a lot tubing in my former life and DOM is much stronger👍
Looking sick bro!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Thanks Dino!!
What kind of wheels and tires do you have on?
In this video I have the Nitto Ridge Grapplers 285/70/17 on the 17" TRD wheels.
Do you still like your CBI sliders? Or have you found something else you prefer?
I still have the CBI Sliders and really do like them. Having the plates really help when reaching the Roam boxes, and cleaning off the windshield.
So true…. I’m losing my 4Runner (write-off) on Wednesday cause no sliders, just running boards 🥴 now is the time to get sliders for my Tacoma. Toyota threw in the steps on my Taco at purchase so was a later thing, that’s turned into now thing 😅. Just deciding on a brand 🤔
There are a lot of good brands out there. I suggest paying the extra for DOM tubing regardless of brand. Its a stronger tube.
On our 4R we went with Hefty Fabworks sliders. The list of mods for our rig is a bit long to type on here lol.
I’m sure it’s a great list!!
Got in on the Trail Tacoma RRW Slider group buy!Just waiting here patiently for um!Lemme tell you..It ain’t EZ!,😂

I’m in Atlantic Canada so shipping and availability were my main obstacles
Totally understandable, customs can be a bitch for sure. And the back orders are outrageous right now. But you’ll be happy once you have a set of quality sliders!!
I ordered RCI sliders and steel skids. Thank you 🙏❤️☯️
Those are a great option for sure. And awesome styling!!

Yeah for sure, I can address this in the next Mumfy Live.
@@Mumfy64 Is this live on TH-cam....?
@@weeweed86 I do live videos now and then. I have not addressed your questions yet but I will/can on the next episode of Mumfy Live.

Much appreciated. Your build will come together in due time. Just enjoy the journey!!
@mumfy are you still running the level with the Bilsteins?
I am.
Looks like he never used the b4 what doooush
the skakey cam is a bit nauseating
Hopefully ive done better in my other videos.
YT just put this vid in my suggested, decent video, but your jerky filming style is killing me.
Thanks for the feed back. I hope my videos have gotten better and less jerky.

I haven't heard of those, but Im glad you found a set that works best for your needs. The 25 degree do look good up against the body!!
