Rock Sliders

[cico7]

When you are looking at sliders or rails, you have to figure out what you are protecting and how it will work.
My rails did not provide a decent step nor did they protect the bottom at the pinch weld. if i got too close to a rock at 8" on
either side, it did well. But I lost clearance and didnt protect the bottom edge.

My advice to any noobs, find out what it does and how it is supposed to work before you add something to your
vehicle. I blew $300 on cust made crap. The welder did what I asked for, I just didnt know what I needed.

I am interested in seeing where this goes. Also, as with all of the other great mods being worked on, looking forward to more pictures

I will say this, I like how 4XG mounts theirs as well. They basically clamp it to the entire pinch weld with through bolts and a thick steel L-bracket on the other side. Pinch welds on these vehicles are very strong.. and with a setup like this you'd have to bend the entire pinch weld at the same time, which I dont really see happening.



In any case, i'm glad to see another option! Especially since I really like the steps and added protection from Doc's. It's going to be a very tough choice when i'm ready to put sliders on! (and that's a good thing)
