As members of TheNissanPath, we have a unique opportunity to get a bulk buy price on the Rocky-Road Super Sliders, for the R51. I have not looked into the sliders for the R50 or WD21 but the same offer may apply. Rocky-Road manufacturers in house and makes the sliders to order. This means that the fabrication cost is high as they may make one set of sliders, for a specific vehicle, at a time. For some other, more popular vehicles, they may make several at a time so bulk buys would be difficult. The Pathfinder would be one of those vehicles that they build to order, one at a time. So an R51 bulk buy would lower their production costs, without impacting their margins. This is perfect, we can save money, and Rocky-Road does not have to cut profit.
For a minimum order of 5 kits, they could offer a 15% discount. For a minimum order of 10 kits, they could offer a 25% discount.
Super Sliders
Standard price is $409.00 USD, freight and any applicable taxes are extra.
With a 15% discount, the price would be approx. $347.65 USD, freight and any applicable taxes are extra.
With a 25% discount, the price would be approx. $306.75 USD, freight and any applicable taxes are extra.
Please note that discounts do not apply to freight costs.
Restrictions
-One Time group buy. We all place our orders with in a day of each other.
-Orders must be placed within this time frame, to receive the discounts.
-No orders received after this time frame will be accepted at the lower cost. Do not expect to pay the lower price if you place an order three weeks after the bulk buy. Standard pricing would apply.
-Each member is responsible to place their own order, pay for the sliders and freight to their location.
-All orders will be shipped at the same time, this allows Rocky-Road the ability to cut, weld fabricate and paint all sliders at the same time.
-No rush orders that will impact production. Rocky-Road would ship each order, to each member within a couple of days of each other. We get them when we get them.
-If the entire bulk buy is less than 5 sets, the orders that are placed will be sold at full suggested price of $409.00 USD. In other words, we need at least 5 members to commit, to get the discount. If one backs out, the rest would lose the discount.
-All orders to be for the Super Sliders (If R50 and WD21 owners are also interested, they could organize their own buy. I would be happy to pass along contact details).
At this time, I believe 5 members have expressed interest in the Super Sliders, including myself.
We are going to set a time limit on commitments and placing orders. All members that are interested must commit by October 15th and all orders must be placed on October 22nd. Orders would then be shipped in November. I will be the main contact, from the forum side and keep count of the orders. On October 16th, I will contact Rocky-Road with the names or forum members that will be placing their orders on October 22nd. All members that would like to participate, please post a response on this thread. This will be how I can keep track of how many orders will be placed. I could also follow up with Rocky-Road for fabrication and shipping dates. For those that would like to place an order, you could PM with your contact details, it might be the only way we can cross reference the orders to forum user names. I wouldn't want to miss anyone.
I am 100% committed and was going to order the Super Sliders anyways. This would free up a little more money for another mod. Who's in?

Sorry, guys. Jury duty this week, so I've had little time to do much of anything. All I can say is that the sliders work as a step for me. That may not hold true for others. I usually stand on them with my feet sideways, rather than only by the tips of my toes.cgray wrote:Oly,
Good call. I set a PM to him asking about them and if he has any close up pictures of them to share. I will share the respose when I get something back.
Here are a few pics throughout the time I've had them:

My better idea of applying bedliner:
One of the latest I have that should hopefully give an idea of how far they stick out:
