    Mine don't flex along the main part of the slider. If you look at my pic you can see where I welded the legs to the slider. This was my mistake as I lined up the leg with the spreader in the slider. I should have put the leg closer to the end of the slider. I just left too much unsupported at the front of the slider.

    So it was just that front bit that flexed. I might add another leg at the ends of the slider so it doesn't happen again.

    Thanks man!:D

    1" Body lift added after slider install. Would take a lot of flex to get to my rockers now.

    Totally agree that sliders are the most useful armor. I'm glad I had mine for the roll over :p the kick outs helped a ton.

    And hey! Lol I was planning on doing the trifecta and Kane's...but one handed driving took a while to get used to so I didn't do the trifecta and of corse I rolled Friday so..yea haha

    But I know..

    Ill never live it down :p haha

    Nice.. i learned jumping mine is a bad idea.. also i was thinking that if you do install a aux trans cooler with fan then youll be able to wire in a led light into the dash to let you know when it's running and youll know what temp it turns on at.. so thats almost like a guage only you don't have to stop and let it cool off.
