    Mine are welded on. I prefer it. Strongest way to mount them.

    Im welding mine on because theyre certainly the strongest option and the cheapest. Just wondering what most people do that need them welded to their truck. Do people not mind paying a shop to do it if they dont have their own welder?

    I think that depends on what people use their truck for. They're probably purchasing sliders for a reason. Which, most of the time they're purchasing them to use them to the max of their ability. I didn't mind paying $90 to have mine welded on because I doubt bolts would have held up to the abuse I've put them through. $90 or even more is well worth the knowledge that they aren't gonna break ever.

    I base this off our sales. We've shipped over 50 sets of bolt on sliders for Tacomas, 1 set of weld on...

    Wow that's crazy. The way I looked at it, most companies bolt on is about 100 bucks more. It costs about that to get them welded on so I went weld because it is stronger. I think a lot of people want to have removable stuff though.

    Right? Our bolt ons are about $200 more than our weld ons. But I think everyone still has the chassis rot fear and wants to be able to remove the sliders just in case.
