no gas with your welder?

 

No I've been to cheap to buy any gas since I have flux wire already.

 

digging the idea of the rock sliders thats my next upgrade as im doing a trip upnorth this summer and it has some rock trails. its the last peice of armor i need for mine. and i will also make a custom drive shaft saftey loop incase the u joint snaps and it wont hit the ground

 

Thanks! I'm happy with them since I haven't welded in over ten yrs and even then I wasn't any good! I'll figure it out as I go which is part of the reason I started with sliders it's easy to hide the welds. Bumpers will be next and hopefully I will be able to put down a decent bead by then.

Yeah I will probably never use then to their full potential but its nice to have them just in case. Not to mention the added safety if I were ever tboned!

 

Saw the splatter, looks good though, better than mine!

 

Love the sliders. I've been trying to convince myself to make sliders/steps but might as well late till its lifted I guess. Love looking through this thread though

 

Thanks Kenny! I waited till I had my BL on before I made mine so that way they would look right and not have a gap after the BL.

Well I have all three feet burned in and cleaned up on one side. I need to get some 1/4 plate and make a pad for the feet so I can bolt them to the frame
Sorry this is all I have for pics

 

Hey Rex I was jw are you gunna weld them to the frame or bolt them on? Thou weld is prolly stronger I always liked the idea of bolt on sliders incase they got jacked up you just hand to unbolt them. & not try to cut them off.

 

Yeah I will bolt them I want to be able to remove them if necessary. If this was an offroad only rig I would probably weld them for the strength but I don't see me doing any crazy rock crawling with it at least not for awhile anyway I'm more of a trail type of wheeler than rocks.

 

Any updates?
