    4xinnovations sliders are the best.

    I was under the impression they just needed to be welded to your truck. Those need to be welded, then painted, then welded on. It'll be a total PITA for you to paint them after they've been welded on. That's a rather long process that I don't have time for right now. Sorry!

    Takes me 3-4hrs with someone else painting after they're all welded together.

    @Tacoaric that would be great. I already painted the sliders, but left the pieces that connect to the frame bare for welding purposes. I can easily paint that after the install

    Come on down and visit @Texoma for a quality job done right.

    I've personally watched him do a set of these for @redtaco512 and they came out excellent.

    I used these Tandem and they did a great job. I would use them for the sliders, but they are booked and I want/need my sliders on before next Tuesday for a trip to Colorado.

    If there's any paint on the sliders in close proximity to where the legs will be welded to them, it has to come off.
