If rocky road doesn't work and you prefer a local source, perhaps 4 Wheel Parts will work for you? They did me fine when I bought my ARB fridge, winch, etc. plus it's a local business so you're also helping out the local economy. Alternatively you can check with ARB for a local reseller.

I called to ask a question about OME springs for a Montero Sport. The response was " i don't know, we mostly deal with jeeps".

Very common response from ignorant employees. Regardless of the reseller, ask to speak with a manager or owner before giving up.Originally Posted by yzfgsx

I know Kurt Williams with Cruiser Outfitters is capable of getting Montero Part from ARB. He is located out of Salt Lake and he is the best. Everyone loves Kurt because he runs a great business. Personally I would go with Kurt. He sells a lot of ARB parts. I know his site list just Toyota parts, but he can get his hands on anything ARB, OME etc. He just lists the Toyota parts because those are the ones he has in stock. It should only take him a few days to get the Montero parts.

I am the beneficiary of the 3rd Gen prototype SuperSliders from them. In my experience they have had quality issues over the years with lifts and such, but one thing nobody disagrees on is that their sliders are second to none. And I think that you can't go wrong bundling them with some ARB stuff. I do recommend calling and working the whole deal with a salesman or Glen himself. The other options of 4-Wheel Parts and Cruiser Outfitters are also excellent choices and they are all within a few dollars of eachother on quotes. Remember that RR can't do installation unless it is a prototype build as Cruiser makes up the difference by doing install and service, plus you get their years of experience and advice. Be advised! Neither of them will be able to get you the sliders without manufacturing them themselves, at least that was the option when I last looked into it with them.

I for one will never use them again. As stated above, not worth the savings. Buy local or some other online source and keep your hair
