BAMF Rock sliders "most" Trucks

It might be pricey depending on where you take it.. Most likely would be cheaper to buy the bits.

Step bit from lowes =50$
Step bit from harbor frieght= 5$
I did 70% of the holes with my harbor frieght one and it is still as sharp as when I got it(except the tip is dull but who cares just drill a pilot hole..).. the rest of the holes i did with a cheap 1/2" bit.. I don't use step bits very often so I didn't see a need for spending 50$ On a quality one..

Edit: I didn't even use oil and it still went fine with the HF bit.. I would be surprised if your drill didn't cut it unless your batteries are really old and won't charge good or something? just with a cordless you probably don't want to force the bit in as hard and it might just take an extra couple minutes per hole.

 

I have a cheap( it was like $30) black and decker corded drill that I used. Worked just fine

I don't actually own one but a fabricator friend of mine lets me borrow his when I need it

 

Installing sliders on my 2nd Gen double cab... This doesn't seem right. What am I missing here?

 

Did you get the large square washers?

 

You need to use the large washers for those holes.

 

Ohhhhh.. The way the square washers came assembled with the fab'd nutplate I thought those were to bridge the gap in the frame. Should the nuts or the metal strip be up against the frame.

Edit: Just realized the washers will create the space I need.

 

No the nut plate is for the front bolts and the square washers are for the other 2 holes.

 

Jerry, Let me know if you have any DCSB sliders for a second gen (with kickout) laying around . I may or may not be in the market for a set of weld ons...and I happen to work about 5 minutes away (*hint I am)

 

If I ever have them they are gone fast. I can't keep them in stock for more then a day. You will have to place an order to get a set.

 

Boooooooooooooo Okay fine . I can wait for the next big sale, Mr. Man.

 

Mine were delivered to my house today, the workmanship looks awesome!

 

These things are f'ing awesome! Thanks a ton Jerry!!!

 

Paint! Weld on tomorrow!

 

Good order, paint then mount ha. Pics or it didn't happen!

 

You can bet your ass there will be pics tomorrow!

Not sure if that was sarcasm about the order of operations or not?

 

Sick, I'm counting on those pics. About the order of painting and welding... Jerry knows... I did something incredibly dumb in the name of saving a buck.

In case you haven't put it together, I had the sliders welded by jerry since I'm local (somewhat), then. Rattle canned at home. I beg anyone who reads this, ***do not do what I did*** For the record this was against Jerry's recommendation sliders are fantastic by the way, looking forward to giving them a workout at slick rock.

 

Oh dear, a bit of overspray?

 

Naw man, it is hard to get the gussets that sit up close to the body... You'll see and remember me when you take a look.
