My friend Bear is the shop manager there at blackwidow and they do make some great stuff.. I know they are currently working on a lot of prototype sliders, bumpers etc that should be available soon for Nissan and some of the rides that don't have quite the aftermarket support that some others do :)...

I like to see what types spare tire carriers they come out with for the Frontier utili-track.:sombrero:

Let us know when you get these and post up some pics. I am anxious to hear what you think of these mounts versus the u-bolt on the cleat method.

I'd be very interested in knowing if they work for the Titan's utilitrac? For some reason I think the Titan's may be a bit different track?
If it works I'd love to get them!

[FlyingWen]

Sweet! Looks like a well made sturdy product!

If there is a difference I'm sure it would be just be a small change in the mounts. They did it for the Xterra's.

Give them a call.

My office is about 1/2 a block from their new shop. I stopped in there for the first time yesterday - nice guys all round. Bear showed me the tire rack he has set up in the Nismo along with the Hi-Lift mount shown above. Tire rack was nicely done - says he can pop in out in under a minute to make room for a parts run.

Nice to see someone turn their hobby into a living.

I got the Black Widow hi-lift mounts for the utili-track and installed them on my Frontier.

First are a few comparison pictures of the Black Widow hi-lift mount and my old hi-lift mount.
The BWOR mount has a wider base and is shorter so the weight is better distributed on the utili-track. With My old set up, I could make the track flex up and down with my hand even with the jack off. With the BWOR mount there is little to no deflection.

Here you can see how close the jack is to the bed keeping it out of the way.

Another thing I like about the BWOR mount is twist knobs on the base. When using the chats I had to align the studs to the jack and align the tab on the chats with track limiting the positions where I could install the mount. With the Black Widow mounts I can place the jack exactly where I want it.

[bigdog]

that looks awesome! but I thought you were going to mount it on the front rail?

[mcm4090]

I originally wanted to mount the jack on the horizontal track behind rear window but that track is not as deep as the other tracks in bed so the twist knobs bolts for the base were to long.

Here you can see that only the spring nut will fit in the smaller track if installed backwards.

With the right size twist knob it would mount there. I know they have a different length twist knobs if mounting to the floor track. I'm going to contacting them to see if they can get me the knobs I need.

I don't even own a nissan, and I'm drooling over this. 'Bout time y'all nissans got some aftermarket "love".

Better call them asap if your looking into these.. They are officially closed for good..

I hear the fab guy Sean will be doing some work from home though, so maybe there's a chance to still grab stuff like this..

Sucks.. Hard for a small company to try and make it in today's market.

[hovenator]

That blows!!!! Just when I was starting my build and in need of quality stuff from a place like Black Widow and that happens.

[mcm4090]

You can still get the stuff you need from them just contact them.

Here is Erik's e-mail.

Is this still the case?

[bigdog]

Is this still the case?

no, i contacted him the other day and he said it was all gone. He seemed willing to make more but i think he'd need the money up front, and you'd have to buy more then 2.

With or without the logo? Maybe we can do a group buy.

Sign me up for a group buy if it happens.

I wanted the ones with the logo, but he no longer has possesion of any of the inventory. I'd be down for a group buy if we found enough people to get him interested.
