3rd gen bolt on sliders

Hey everyone I have a 2020 dcsb sport and want to build a set of rock sliders for it just curious if anyone has done this and would be able to show where they bolted there’s on or if I would be able to see some pics of mounts from some company’s to base mine off of. Thanks everyone

 

Typically sliders go to the frame for strength. Weld is stronger than bolt.

 

Wasn’t there a debate about that? A manufacturer stated bolt on is just as strong if the hardware is properly graded? Idk.

 

Yeah, the tough part is finding a place on the frame to get a big enough bolt plate. Welding takes a lot smaller footprint.

 

Yeah that’s true. Weld on would definitely be lighter too.

 

You can see my write-up below, I believe they are about the same for 3rd Gen.

hmmm

 

This is WAY too nuanced and technical of a Conversation to have as a white vs black conversation about.

 

OP, there's at least one mfg that sells a diy kit. There's another one local to me here in AZ that also sells a diy kit

 

I made my remark about welding being better only for these sliders because, getting a plate with enough contact area to bolt is not easy on these trucks. Is bolting stronger? No, not if the welds are good. However heating these frames is not good either.
Final call.... 50/50.

 

Nah bro. You're regressive. Don't talk to me anymore.

 

I swear I done my best! Honest

 

I love that your avatar is just constantly facepalm lol.
