100 per side? holy crap.

 

Well I was way off on my weight measurement. I blame dustin.... I just weighed them and a rough measurement comes out at 65 pounds per side.

 

wow, that's heavy

mine arent even close to 100 and I have hoops, flared, and 5 frame tie ins (maybe 6, cant remember)

you'll notice alot more roll with those on, I got alot more corner lean with mine

 

get a sway bar on there...

 

na, it don't bother me, it's just more noticable with the sliders on

 

 

so what front axle are you actually running now? lol

sliders look good.

 

Looks good, really beefy.

 

86 Wagoneer with 1.25" wheel spacers on each side.

 

those look awesome man. i love square sliders instead of round

 

 

this is some great progress for ya! love it!

 

nice

that looks sweet with those on with the body trim

you have lots of clearence under there

Are you gonna do more than 2 frame tie ins? I'd put 2 more at least

and those don't look that heavy at all, I was expecting some serious beef from your prev post

the truck's lookin good

 

yea I said above that Im going to do at least 2 more frame tie ins. in the picture they weigh about 55 pounds each. (my initial 100 pound weight guesstimate was off, dustin thought I said 3/8th wall, but its 3/16th) with 2 more frame tie ins and gusseting and end caps they should be pretty heavy.

 

with 3 legs(soon to be a 4th) and capped off, mine were only about 55-60 lbs. ended up being fairly lighter than i thought they would. yours are pretty much the same as mine. its never as heavy as you think its gonna be. looks good man!

 

I put mine on the scale already, going to be at least 65-70 pounds by the time ther are finished.

 

did you do a 6 to 5 bolt spacer? or did you already swap on a 5 bolt hub etc? I cant remember

 

I already swapped to 5 lug. Those are just straight up spacers not adapters.

 

thats what I figured. Whats your reason for the spacers, just to get a little wider?

 

Too clear my links and coilovers.

 

gotcha, nice. wish I had that problem

 

It rained all day, but I was able to work in the garage for a little while. I got all 8 legs for my sliders cut with my bandsaw and one of the sliders is capped on the ends, the other caps are cut just not welded on yet.

 

Looking good from the pics on a few of the pages I scanned

 

One slider is all done. Not welded to the truck yet as I dont have my frame plates made yet. But its capped and has all 4 legs welded to it.

 

pics or we can't believe you!
