Question about sliders/bumpers

[Logan]

Okay I know this has been asked before but has anyone running bolt on sliders ever had any problems? Also Im torn between getting a demello rear or CBI rear bumper. I know a couple guys who run the demello but have never seen a CBI in person. Any ideas? suggestions? thanks

If you bolt and unbolt them quite a bit, and you beat the crap out of 'em like me, they get harder and harder to line up the holes each time. Otherwise I love them.

i've got bent-up bolt on sliders and love them, i've never had a problem. I've even had the truck on a 4 post lift just on the sliders. If you want to wait a month or so, you will actually get to see a CBI double tube bumper in life, i placed my order today. Steve was a really nice guy to work w/.

Sorry, I should have used a quote, I was asking RamToolTaco. So Carrollton is close to Columbus you say?

How much was your CBI bumper if you don't mind me asking?
Did you get it raw or powdercoated?

Hey man, I've got a Demello rear bumper and it is nice. I love it, but, I think I could have done better on the price if I were a little more patient.

the entire bumper w/ all the bells and whistles, license plate holder/ tow hitch, shackles, powder coating, and shipping was 725. He quoted me a cheaper bumper for the same for a 525. It was just a different design.

Wow. I love the CBI bumpers but that's more than my bull bar cost. My wife is going to kill me next year when I break the news to her. :D

How long were you in? Right now I'm in 2/29 and work at the night infiltration course. I spent 1 year in Korea and 5 years in the 101st Airborne.
I'm about to change MOS's to something less likely to get me shot again. :D

I was in for 5 years. I was stationed there at benning the whole time with 1-30 INF as a medic permanently attached to a Mech Inf company. Spent about a year in Kosovo, a month or so in Egypt, and almost a year in Iraq. My MOS didnt keep me out of trouble as much as i would have liked but good times nontheless!!!
