    Does it say on them, might be more of a vendor question if it doesn't?

    Head of the bolt tells you. If metric it'll say 10.9 if they're hardened and if sae it'll have 6 lines.

    Grade 8 is far stronger than grade 5 in both shear and tensile strength (stretch)

    I have RCI sliders. Very stout, well designed and IMO the best looking. CS was excellent too. 9/10 The only ding I'd give the sliders is the fasteners--easily upgraded, but having grade 5 SAE for armor on a metric truck is a little annoying.

    This truck is pure sex.

    Aside from that, the $500 sliders sound like a great deal.

    Thanks! Question for you!

    The guy gave me these tabs, did yours come with them? I didn't get any instructions, so I'm not sure if they were extra.image.jpg

    Where did you get them? I'm around Bragg too and am currently in week 5 of at least an 8 week wait for sliders. Would have been nice to get them with no wait.
