    After an overwhelming amount of you told me sliders should be the next thing i should add to my truck i started looking for a set. With so many options what should I get

    4wheelparts and summit has 'trail gear'? I have never heard of them but they are the cheapest and in stock. They are same width tubing wise and are dom not hrew. Any reason I shouldnt cut corners and go with the cheap option and get these if theyre the same quality?

    I have also looked BAMF especially since I am from the area as well as relentless fab and 4x innovations.

    What would you guys go with?

    Are you welding them on, or going with bolt on? Many of the weld on options are adequate, even trail gear. There is a big difference with how the bolt on options attach. Look at Mobtown, BAMF, Relentless, SOS Concepts, and all of the vendors to compare. Some require drilling the frame, others don't. I like my Pelfrey bolt on sliders :D

    Went with Mobtown bolt on. DOM tubing standard. Absolutely no frame drilling.

    I do wish mine were flat, so they made better steps.

    Aha those will be a classic masterpiece soon. I was looking for weld on I figured that was more secure and I have a few buddies that could help me put them on. So you think any weld on are fine?

    If you have friends that weld, have them make some for you. You could make them entirely out of square stock without havindg to do any bending.

    I have sos concepts. Reason being they are the only ones who still make bolt on sliders for the regular cabs. I love them. No drilling and they sure can take a beating!
