    I have no idea. Our best deals I thought didn't really happen until you spent some money on the tvs. I wouldn't stand in line or be in the crowds if all I was saving was $20 for a tv.

    We killed Thursday, Friday we were under a ton and yesterday I'm sure we made nothing. It was a bad year for us overall. We sold most of our in store stock though.

    Mines were bolt on with full frame plates and when hitting whoops or ruts at speed it made the loudest metal on metal smacking noise you could imagine. So cut the plates off the fried them to the frame and no more clanking

    Can you still use the bolt on as hi-lift jack points? Do most of you get bare metal then do your own spray painting/bed liner to the bars?

    I'm going to plate mine in sometime soon. The open ones get sandblasted so I'm hoping that buy plating them in and adding some 3m tape for traction will just make it so I have to touch up the underside for surface rust.

    Yes they supported the weight of my truck many many times. I spray painted mine gloss black.

    Yeah I have jacked mine up a couple times with them bolted. And I got the powder coated then use rattle can satin black to touch them up.

    I put all pro sliders on my truck and used bolt on. In case I bend them I can fix them.

    I was just wondering how you get weld on sliders off when you screw them up from smashing into something.

    If you smash sliders up so bad that they have to be cut off then you have worse problems to deal with.

    True with either. And realistically with the bolt-ons, if you use/dent/bend them. They will be under tension and spring out of alignment if you do ever remove them and take a bunch of work to bolt back on.

    This isn't a direct comparison because it's part of the chassis structure, not cantilevered off of the frame.

    This tube is the driver side rocker tube of my buggy. It is actually the cheaper/weaker HREW tubing in 1.75 x .120 wall that has been ABUSED with a bunch of massive drops directly onto the tube and rolled over once.

    HREW is the cheapest/weakest that is usable/available. DOM (Drawn Over Mandrel) is stronger, then Chromoly is strongest (way overkill). This is relevant to bending and dent resistance.

    http://www.savageoffroad.biz/DOM-vs-HREW_ep_42.html I mostly agree, except I would recommend DOM if you plan to actually see rocks big enough to really use them.

    The upgrade during the current rebuild has been to add kickers to reinforce with 1.75 x .188 wall DOM. This adds width to help keep rocks off the sides and a small step along with a massive increase in strength.
