Well being that Matt (99Ranger4x4) is such a nice guy and hooked me
up with these rock slider's. I ended up getting down there to his place last Sat, only to find him in his driveway grinding away on a RCD diff bracket LOL...but we finally got him off his a$$ and put him to work. Thanks again Matt:

I took a die grinder to them to roughin it up. That way I could coat the top of them with some rubber no-slip. My wife finally has something to step on, in order to get in the truck, the last thing I need is her busting her tail cause her foot slipped and slides off the slider...hahah what a concept
On to the pics:


















SCUFF

 

Cool man. Looks good.

 

nice man! i like the square design

 

awww, I was going to give matt another 12 pack for those haha

look good and glad to hear he is trying to fix that bracket

 

damnit i didnt get first post.. goin to play disc golf bb later


coulda got better pics

 

he gave me an 18 pack


buttt then we drank half of it.

 

im sorry im not digging the square tube but they look strong as heck

 

Sweet

 

damn high roller with his 18 packs.

 

hahaha....I KNEW that you would have something to whine about Matt...LOL my wife had the Canon Rebel XT with her so I had to use the powershot....I'll get some better ones....Thanks for the comments guys. I think for what they are supposed to do, square tubing is a better way to go....there isn't as many tubes to get hung up on rocks and what not. I've got 4 legs going to the frame and that's about it. Not to mention (for right now) torsion bar brackets....so I'm really happy with em....oh and matt thanks again...for letting me give you a 18 pack for em and then help ya out and drink half of em...LOL

High Roller?.....well that's how I roll dawg....

 

If matt would just actually sell stuff for money he could have fixed his truck by now haha

 

yea yea yea, i have no idea what ****s worth though.. Eric originally said "so what do you want for those sliders" then a little later said something along the lines of "we normally solve this in terms of cases of beer"


your more than welcome to throw some money my way.. i should charge you for prepping the brackets and cross members haha


I keep flip flopping on cars/trucks... feel free to donate to my down payment fund, i'm currently planning on keeping the truck since i cant sell it and getting another ranger since its been a good truck and taken a hell of a beating. ha

 

sooo...does this mean I've gotta get my butt to Matt's place for some sliders?

 

That's RIGHT....you couldn't come up with a dollar figure, so we go to Beer Figure.....and if that doesn't work it's ammo! LMAO

Shane! So ummmmm why haven't you left yet to come to Texas? LOL

 

looks sweet. ill have to check them out for sure when im back in austin :)

 

sure come on down.. buy the metal and a case of beer

 

matt does this mean im gonna have to build you another set of sliders?

 

i like the square looks good

 

Looks good!

 

yea it looks that way.. maybe i'll be taking another stick of t00b instead of cash monies

nevermind, i'll take the cash




i kinda want to make more anyways.. make the legs the right length, play with the fancy welder some more.


I did Erics differently for the front leg and is probably better than the way we did it. Not to mention they sit level and are evenly spaced out from the body all the way down.

 

if you want more steel now is the time to get it. it seems as though all the prices are increasing quickly..


how did yall do the front leg? any pics?

 

i cut a piece of plate to fit between the sleeve in the frame and the body mount, welded it to the frame and put the leg on top of that.

 

good thinkin. should have done that the first time..

 

yep, and those sliders are cursed.. you were on a tight schedule, then eric decided to pull the same ****

 

cursed? how so. and what same stuff did Eric do?


yea i was trying to do too many things all at one time. next time you come down, ill take a bit more time to build em. lol
