Hey Guys, Sorry a little slow on this. I've been out of town doing some R&D, since Wed.

I'm hoping to have some sort of update today. We had a setback last week. I'll post up ASAP.

These will be sold in pairs and in a four pack for those who want them for the back seat in on the Unlimited. I don't have pricing yet. I should have pricing by Wed. or Thurs.

The prototype looks good. Can't wait to see the production version and get some pricing.

Yeah, something more full-length would be cool...at least half the slider.

Are you guys thinking longer, so you could use one step four both doors on the Unlimited? If so, you could order the 2 door weld on kit. It's not as much of a step though, as the bars are closer to the Rubi-Rails. I really need specific feedback and people to get behind specific products. I'm a production business not a custom fab business. So far the individual steps have most of the support. Looking forward to hearing more details.

I'm game for either the bolt on or weld on. I also like the looks of the smaller step but would still be interested in a longer set if that's what you end up with.. I'm looking for something to use as a step on the my rubi-rails without having to sacrifice much ground clearance..

It seems that Jeep guys like short women! My wife is also short and am looking to add a 4" lift and 35's, I'm thinking accessability is definitely going to be an issue. What I am looking for is something that is there for everyday use but removable for when we go wheeling. I like the prototype but would like it to be lower to the ground... maybe offer 2 lengths?

So here are some of the options that I'm seeing

Weldon kits can be done in different lengths. Should I just offer one long length then folks can cut them down to what length they want?

I am able to offer;
- A long length that can be cut.
- The shorter length that is going to be used on the bolt on kit.
- A single length bolt on kit.
Welding and cutting jigs need to be built for any specific length bolt on kit. This gets expensive and I'm not seeing enough interest to do more than one set of jigs.
I'll try to get some pricing info. up by Tuesday. I'll then ask who's interested in what kit and start a list.

Please check back on Tuesday to add your name and interest to the list.
