[Wanted] T-Rex frame sliders

EthioKnight · June 26th, 2012, 01:11 PM

Hi,
I have tried searching high and low for these frame sliders, but they seem to be out of stock everywhere (including the official t-rex site). If anyone has any info as to where I can get my hands on one or if anyone is selling, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thanks.

Nothing's 'wrong' with them, not that I can think of anyway (heard you may need to do some cutting though). I'm just looking to save a little

actually i like the way the trex bolts are made.
the shogun seems to just use carriage bolts from the hardware store.

both kits are good and strong.

its a little bit of cutting, only required cutting is to the sprocket housing... nothing crucial, but slight cutting will be required...

the white part is the part which has to be cut off... The bracket will mount on the furthest bolt on the engine.....

Here's a pic...

thanks 4 the info bro, appreciate it. I'd rather not cut anything/any part of my bike though (funny coming from a dude who did his own fender chop lol). Still waiting on a set of 'rexes though...

I got lucky and found a set of new T-Rex sliders AND Shogun rear spools (on here) for the price T-Rex sells the sliders alone. If you already have spools just buy the sliders direct from T-Rex, they are like $80, a set of brand new sliders is hard to find considering their purpose

Yeah, I have spools but ... T-rex still lists the sliders as "out of stock". I've kinda exhausted my search and am now inclining towards the shogun frame sliders, true I'll need to make a small modification but I think they might be worth saving up for (and offer the best protection with the way they are mounted)...
