Real JK Sliders

[TipsE-Z]

Well, it's been a long and painful wait but progress is being made on my sliders!! Woot! They are going to be welded to the frame and boat sided as well so I should be able to slide over a good bit of stuff. Give me your thoughts on em folks!






And I wasn't sure where to post this so I figured here would work.

Looks real nice. Are you making them?

[curtis]

Very nice.

No I'm not. I wish I could say I had that sort of skill but I don't.

BEEFY

I'd like to see how they tie into the frame. More please.

They look solid. Ditto, on the frame tie in.

I'll get some shots once they are one and before we do the boat sides. The brackets coming off are going to be welded to the frame, then the sides boat sided with an angled part on the front and rear to tie into the frame as well right by my Long Arm mounts. These things are going to be incredibly beefy. My goal is to have them not quite as far out as the fenders, but far enough out to offer some serious protection if they Jeep is really leaning on them.

In theory I'll have the bottom of this thing slick enough to skip across a pond with the sliders and tummy tuck skids.

Now if I could figure out a way to get the LCA mounts a bit higher.

boat sides sounds interesting! The tub on the JK's from the bottom of the door downward isn't as deep as they are on the TJs, interested to see how the boatside looks!

[TipsE-Z]

I am too. The only thing I haven't really figured out yet is access to the body mounts incase I opt for a body lift later on. I'm thinking if cut out holes where the mounts are and chamfer the edges we should be fine and have a few spots to drain, but I'm no genius with metal... I'm an electrical guy.

Those look awesome....look forward to seeing them powder coated and mounted....
