    I have some demello bolt ons. I took them off of my white truck when I sold it. No kick out, wasn’t available when they were having their big “fire” sale. Thought about getting new/used sliders but don’t have the money and the sliders I have a good so yea, lol

    That's how I ended up with my 4x innovtions, least expensive quality option I could find. I like them, although I need to grind off a little excess

    Nope, haven't wheeled at all. I'm hoping it holds up... although maybe i'll have to find someone to weld on a 4th leg somehow

    @icetreye and I were a bit confused how they lined up without smashing the body, it's pretty close. Also the 4th leg provided was too long... Gotta grind off the excess still oh and rust. Beach life

    That we did. Could you take photo of how the 4th leg fits? Maybe angled it fits better but that guy seemed wayyy longer then the rest

    Is there’s a reason half of the plate is hanging off the frame? o_O

    :wave: First gen frames aren't the easiest to do sliders on. Just angle the supporting leg down next time. The slider will have a "V" shape to it. Congrats on the 4x4.
    :sawzall: and :welder: can fix it if you have issues down the road.

    Fitment issues and lack of instructions from vendor. Gonna grind off the excess, think I should get a 4th leg welded in near the back? There's definitely some play on the back part of the sliders but the rest are pretty solid
    Maybe if it came with a Pelfreybilked sticker or two :D
    Thanks buddy :D. I think we tried that with the 4th leg but it still wasn't even remotely close, maybe @icetreye will chime in.
    Random question those wires on the fender, just splice those together with my current radio wires right?

    Just chop that off and put yours in place. It was so I can pull the fender and not fill the hole. I was pretty lazy when I owned that glass.

    Cool cool, yaa I can tell by the extra bolt hole along the bottom. Although realistically I'll probably do that too lol

    It’s a set of sliders... how much instruction do you need? Simple answer... yes. I would if you have any doubt. I haven’t seen what your working with so I can’t say for sure.

    The only issue we ran into with my sliders was that one of the welding plates overlapped the mounting point on the frame for my transfer case skid, but Ryan (shmellmopwho) just cut that pate so it fit there without interfering and welded it up. Have had them on for 3 years now and no issues

    @Shmellmopwho made them and installed them

    I think I was the 2nd set of 1st gen sliders he did

    True but it shipped in pieces. Granted I'm not really trying to make excuses or anything, we did what we did. As long as it work on the rocks I'm happy
