    "
    Step 10:
    This step you will certainly want an extra set of hands. Above the bolt you installed in
    Step 9
    on the
    face of the chassis will be a hole in the front flange of the rock slider above the square tube. Put the
    long handled washer with the bolt welded to it thru the boxed portion of the chassis where you removed
    the brake line bracket in
    Step 4
    . Install one 3/8-16 grade 8 nut and lock washer through the hole and
    snug down with a 9/16” socket and ratchet, do not tighten yet    "

    lol i definetly could do it by myself but still

    Day 1: Pick up

    20180330_143104.jpg

    20180331_130125.jpg
    Day 2: Prep
    Etch and Prep + Acetone + clean


    20180331_142053.jpg
    First coat Primer

    20180331_172200.jpg
    2nd coat primer

    20180401_153831.jpg
    POR-15 in the channel that will attach to the frame, as well the weld point slightly left of the channel, in case any water pools up

    20180402_165331.jpg
    Aweee yeaaa - First coat of matte black

    20180402_191857.jpg
    3rd/Final Coat of primer


    20180408_174957.jpg
    Ready to be installed

    20180409_153017.jpg
    Scratched it before the install. Makes me feel good that I didn't scratch a $200-$300 coat of powder coating. $8 can will fix that haha


    20180409_155014.jpg
    Parts ready to go, painted them matte black to differ some errosion
    Install was a son of a bitch.
    Prep was interesting, did the install 98% by myself took me about 6+ hours, so pro tip? take the afternoon to do it with a buddy.


    20180409_155504.jpg
    Used a motorcycle jack. helps greatly. You can see the scratch in between the 1st and 2nd bar towards the front end.
    20180409_160629.jpg
    its coming along :)
    20180410_092703_HDR.jpg
    Drivers side definitely took longer (moving fuel lines, getting my hand in behind the fuel tank and frame)

    20180409_200117.jpg
    Slider Profile. Kickout definitely worth it

    20180409_200129.jpg


    20180409_200102.jpg
    All in all a long install. Worth it.

    Right!

    Super impressed with the construction, welds looked clean, Mobtown staff were right helpful. Had ordered them during black Friday sale, got them a week-ish ago haha
