    It's mid summer...perfect fabricating time. I'm expecting to see slider projects sprouting up in this thread. I've sent out way more files than are being represented here. :mad: I took 6 months to build mine, but that's no excuse for the rest of you! :D

    I've got several projects brewing but, knowing me, I'll just get ready to fab when the weather turns to crap. :rolleyes: Don't be like me.

    Yeah, those are interesting. I like the approach for sure! Modular stuff is not easy to design...and have it actually be easy enough to change to take advantage of it being modular.

    Oh, you'll be back! The more crap I add to my truck, the higher suspension moves up on my list.

    If your sliders were available to purchase on the market..they would be first on my list.
    They appear rugged as fuk and look sexier than any other slider ive seen.
    Great work! :cheers:

    Hey, thanks man! If I had the time, I'd make a bunch of sets but it's just not in the cards right now.

    Just stumbled upon this thread after reading bullaculla's build. Awesome work! Im glad there are people out there willing to make stuff available to help people with the same interests out! Anyone under take a DCLB yet? I wanna put a set of sliders on mine. Has anyone tested the lifting strength with a highlift?

    Thanks!

    I tested the strength of my sliders in moab recently. No problems whatsoever...took some pretty good hits. I've used a floor jack to lift a side of the truck as well.

    I'm willing to work with anyone with a regular cab or DCLB to make a new set of files for those trucks. Takes a little patience and some back and forth communication but it's not that hard!

    Yes. ^^^^ that. Good bolts and good backing plates. I'll post pics of the scrapes and whatnot for those that are interested.

    It's definitely some work but you can greatly simply the design and it's not too bad.

    Sent you a PM Bored. I want to weld up my own sliders, but don't want to weld them to the frame. Your plates look great. Did you ever put a bolt through the frame at the rear of the slider?

    I got your PM. I'll send out the files as soon as I can. And, no, never did put a bolt at the back on the bottom of the rail. I've put some abuse on them and all seems good.

    DCLB frame plates are in development. I'm working with a fellow TW member and we're working it out long distance. He's been awesome! I just sent him round two of the print template so he can fit it up and we can finalize hole locations. Hopefully it'll be one more round in paper then a set in steel. The first steel set will probably need some minor tweaking. We'll add those tweaks to CAD then release the files! Stay tuned!!

    BTW, still looking for a RC 2nd gen volunteer to help develop plates for those trucks.

    What price quotes are people seeing to have the plates made?

    So far for me - high price is $398 + tax, low price is $295 + tax.
