new sliders, gauges, and half assed flex

just finished building some sliders for my b3000. made them from 1/8inch 3x2 and the legs are made from 1/8inch 2x2. jacked the truck up from them on both sides and they seem to be strong enough

they'd be hanging lower and farther out. you also might not be able to mount them since reg cab and ext cabs have different mounting points/lengths. the steps are also weaker then sliders.
