    I'm getting ready to buy some Avid Offroad sliders with kickout. I have a 2013 DCSB TRD Sport with a 3" lift and 285/65/18 Nitto trail grapplers. I haven't taken it offroad and don't think I'll go offroad much.

    My question is... If I go with bolt on sliders, will It support the weight of the truck when using a hi lift jack? Or is it safer to just go with weld on sliders.

    For those that have bolt on sliders and have used a hi lift jack,maws it sturdy enough.

    If they bolt to the frame they "should" support the truck. If they bolt to the body - no way in he double hockey sticks

    I may go with BAMF sliders but still confused about the whole bolt or weld issue.

    Just do bolt ons if you don't wheel much, just buy a few drill bits & good oil to go with the install

    Since your in the bay area go with BAMF bolt on. You could order from him and pick them up, save on shipping costs. I have a set. They have very little deflection when using a hi lift jack. You just missed out on 15% off but check his website for his deal of the day.
