Is anyone making this type of slider for the KJ?

It looks like a similar concept to the ones custom made by Screamin Lizard.

Makes me wonder if it's time to build a bender................. hhhhhmmmmmm?????

Almost forgot............. I emailed Iceland Offroad to see if they plan to offer them for the KJ.

Well just like the offer on the skids the same goes for sliders bumpers ect.
The guy I deal with that owns a fab shop that specializes in off road and Jeep products will build what ever we can come up with but he wants a 5 pcs min. order

He will build it based off of my '03 KJ LTD and I will have to pay for #1 but he wants 4 more people who will FIRMLY commit to buying the others
He is "in a business to support both a family and a Jeep habit so there will be nothing for free"

I ended up purchasing the super nerfs... Although they sit only slightly below the pinch weld, you will need to cut 4 notches (2 for each side) on the pinch weld to do the install. In terms of getting the sliders well mounted, you'll want to make sure they mount to more than just the pinch weld... this means that some structural piece will need to connect below the pich weld (i.e.; less clearance) or, you will need to cut the pinch weld.

I got this response from Iceland Offroad:

Look for the WJ products later this month on our website.
Thanks.

Not bad but I like the SL ones better, but anything is better than nothing (wish I had some).
