    That's the worst is when you rip your leg open. Literally takes one time and you'll never do it again :anonymous:

    I always warn people from now on haha

    Yeah I plan on having to warn them when I likely end up putting the tape on. Hell, even now I will have to remind people that the slider is there when they get out. My first time, I forcefully stepped right on because I forgot it was there...

    Nice! I've been eyeing these for a while now. I may just have to do it!

    If you think you'll need them, better to get them before the damage than after.

    Pickup truck in 2wd + all-terrain tires + wet roads = slippage for days, if not careful.

    At least it serves as further launch practice. Being manual, it's like I have potential bonus slippage.

    Looks good man! Ryan did a great job. You can do a ton more trails at Rausch now with more confidence with those.

    Yeah he's getting pretty good. Welds are definitely looking better.
    That's the plan. I'm still low and soft, and with just factory skids, so I can't go ham but sliders should definitely serve as a good step forward.

    Alright electrical know-it-all's lol. The two connectors on the right of the switches is for the lower light negative (top) and Lowe light positive (bottom). Can I jumper all three switches to each other and then connect it to the positive and negative for The dash/dimmer circuit on the last switch?

    Sure, that's how I have mine. Keep in mind our dash lights dim on the negative side, so you can't jump the two negative posts on the switch if you want them to dim.

    Gotcha. All my light harnesses have the negative that goes straight to the battery anyway. Thanks Brett! :thumbsup:

    Do they still offer them? I don't see it on their site. I do see the 60" universal sliders offered without a kickout, but not Taco sliders.

    Unfortunately for you, most people don't view that as fun. To them, a bunch of snow is near-guaranteed tragedy and should be avoided at all costs, no matter the costs.

    On a side note, I really am coming to like that dramatic bumper.
