What are some of the products you would like to see released in 2008?
We already know that the FWD transfer case will be coming out when it's ready for sale, so don't jump on that one.


:headscratch:
I would like to see a complete crossmember/skidplate combo for the R10 adapters.... :greengrin:

I would also like to see Marlin carry/distribute products on their web site that they don't already produce. EX: Diamond Axles from FROR, Prerunner parts from Total Chaos and anything else that Marlin doesn't plan to start producing. Kinda like a one stop shop.

How about Marlin becoming the Shelby of Toyotas? He could take Tacos and SAS them (Diamonds), crawl them and sell them with (hopefully) Toyota's warranty and service backing.















You didn't say this had to be feasible.

So many cool things and not enough time.... :willynilly:    :thud:



I wouldn't mind some seat covers with Marlin Crawler embroidered in them....Where have I seen those before... :headscratch: ?   Maybe even with some matching headrest covers with logos on the front and back... :yupyup:   Does this belong in the Ideas thread?

Both very good ideas! I would really like to have a complete skid/crossmember for when I do duals with a r10 adapter! And offering stuff from other companies is always a good idea if they will sell, and I am sure they would sell! I would also like to see a Marlin :turtle: addition Warn 9.5ti winch. I would buy one!

how about distributing for SKY? I'd like the IFS hub adapters. 

I think they should put BigMike to work producing EFI adapter harnesses for 3RZ as well as 22RE platforms to adapt to a carbed truck. :gap: (i know, ORS has them)

a zip up MC sweatshirt.

I do agree that a complete crossmember for the R10 Series of adapters would be a good thing.  Not everybody wants to do the FROR design, even though you wouldn't gain as much clearance.  I guess because of that, it kind of detracts from the need to have the R10, though. :headscratch:

I would also like to state, at this time, that to this point, 100% of my toy parts have come from MC, and I have sent several people to the MC.  I will, in the future have to purchase from SKY, (IFS hub adapters), but for what I do, MC really doesn't need to increase their inventory.  I do think I am the minority though, as I DD.  I like the idea behind this thread, and hope that something truly new may come from it. :rant:
