indomwe Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 If you find a good deal let me know cuz I would also like some as well. Also given the frame rust issue I have been thinking of welding strengthening plates down each side before installing sliders Maybe 1/4in??

Also given the frame rust issue I have been thinking of welding strengthening plates down each side before installing slidersMaybe 1/4in?? 1/4" is to thick, 3/16" max. If you really want a set, I can probably make you a set for under $300 installed (I'm 2hrs from you). Edited January 29, 2008 by GrimGreg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeV Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 i use my rocker panels for rock sliders, why do think they call em rocker panels? I thought that is where the music came from? Just weld yer doors shut like the Duke Boyz, and then you can take jumps with 0 damage to your truck!

Simon Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 I've heard from my metal fabrication master that he's got a "plan" for sliders for my truck. Considering how my rear bumper turned out, I'll let him play Once we've got them built, I'll have pics to post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
