    Hey! Does anyone here have the Relentless Fab sliders w/ the kickout?? I’m looking to model my sliders close to those, and I’m looking for some measurements!

    Might I ask a favor? Can you look at this area and tell me if there is anything inside the cavity formed by that brace running across the floor pan? I have been thinking that if that "brace/reinforcement" was removed, I could drop my BMW seats that much lower, basically mounting their flat rails directly to the floor, which should lower them by a couple of inches. Right now I ride pretty tall. This might be a help to you when you start putting in your Lexus seats too!!
    Many thanks!!InkedIMG_6511_LI.jpg

    I believe those are Zerk fittings? You'll need a grease gun.

    get a grease gun. Super handy to be able to grease the bushings without removing the springs.

    The nipples screw in to the end of the bolts.

    When you pump grease in, loosen the bolts and then retorque them after greasing.

    Had a friend create a "Roll Cage" to support the roof top tent and put no stress on the shell itself..........the reason for the quotes is cause it's only attached to the bed not the frame rails which would make it more stable i also used Herculiner bed lining to paint the bars and will use them to attach misc items. RTT is super stable with this setupIMG_2305.jpg

    The bolt by the gas tank on the driver side is seized I think when I try to loosen the top leaf goes up and if I go in a tightening motion the top leaf goes down IMG_20180223_122339248.jpg

    I did it myself. Wasn't to difficult. Only thing I didn't have any gas to charge the shocks so I had a local shop fill them at 190PSI, charged me $5.
