    Some of the worst welds I’ve done are on these sliders (first thing I ever fabbed like 6 yrs ago) and no broken welds here. Tubing got bent to hell and couldn’t open the rear doors, but welds held.

    @jeff b nothing to worry about on those welds

    It should be a good start for a 3 or 4 link kit.

    ETA: and by kit I mean massive fabrication and design project.

    Those links will work. Most are running 50-52, what’s most important in the shock placement on the links when it comes to short beds. I’ve got a set of trac links I’m probably gonna finish welding and list for sale.

    Bad ass.

    One question though. Are you alone or is someone out in front of you? I ask because that road looks fairly tame and I'd assume possible traffic on it so how do you know you won't come flying around a corner and see a utv coming right at you and either kill them or yourself by going into a tree to avoid them?
