Westcott Design

Yeah I’m keeping stock wheels. No need to replace them any time soon.

 

Finally installed mine today..I didn't get many pics but here are a few. The quality of these are amazing. Money well spent.

I went with the 20 degree because that seemed to fit the body lines better. I opted for clear powder coat because the welds are too nice to hide.

 

Those look really good on that silver. I’m still debating on my cement which to go with. Think I’ll end up with black powder coat on mine.

 

did you get the clear powdercoat or the raw? looks awesome!

 

Sliders look awesome, and it looks like Quinn won.

 

Clear powder coat

 

Are these the 0 degree, or the 20?

If they're the 0 would it be alright to get an over head picture with the door open to see how far out they sit?

Thanks.

 

they’re The 0 degree set

 

How long did it take from order to delivery?

 

I believe 3 weeks. They were pretty fast!

 

Thanks for the pictures. Just ordered mine. Hope my timing works out. Visiting family in a few weeks and would love to install there. Fingers crossed it arrives while we are visiting and not after.

 

I just finished installing a set of these Westcott sliders on my TRD OR. These are the 20 degree option powder coated in black. Took me about 2 hours to do by myself, but likely would have taken less if there were any instructions included - there were not. This left me to guess what plate or bolt length was needed in some areas which slowed me down, and I had to make a run to the auto parts store to pick up a couple longer bolts and washers as what they had included was not cutting it.

I'll make a couple notes that I have not seen made up to this point nor did I see these addressed in the Westcott "install" video on their YouTube page.

1) The powder coat being used is textured. No biggie and I like it, but it's difficult to tell this in pictures. In person it looks more like a bed liner.

2) There are two lengths of bolts provided - a bunch of 1 inch bolts and two longer 1 3/4(?) inch bolts. These two provided long bolts should be used in the rear most bottom holes that need drilled out on both passenger and driver side.

3) Be prepared to drill the aforementioned rear most holes to 3/8 inch diameter (assuming you actually want to use these sliders as sliders).

4) The extra bolts I went out of my way to pick up were 3/8-16x1-1/4" (see picture below). These fit the included hardware and work well for installing the front most top bolts that require you to fish your hand inside the frame rail. For whatever reason the included 1 inch bolt worked fine on my driver side, but when it came to the passenger side I could not get it threaded for the life of me. The 1 1/4 inch bolts worked great for this. Do yourself a favor and grab at least 2 of these ahead of time.

Other than those notes, everything looks great! Now for some pictures...

Thanks for the great write up. I just installed mine yesterday. I went ahead and got the additional bolts you mentioned and it really came in handy.
One thing I didn’t think about until right as I finished, did you use any thread locker? It had completely skipped my mind and now I’m debating if I should go back and add it.

 

Glad it helped! I didn't use any Loctite, but that is on my list as well. I need to go back through and slather on some Blue.

 

Looking to buy a set of these sliders for my 2019. Thanks for all the info owners have posted. Has everyone had to trim the black box underneath the truck and remove the sliver bracket as one member has mentioned? I have only seen one person mention this so far.

 

If you need steps, get 0 degrees with top plate. There is nothing a 0 degree slider can’t do that a 20 degree can, both will handle anything offroad.

 

Those of you with the clear powder coat, how have they held up over time? Any rust issues?

 

Did you need trim the black box underneath the truck and remove the sliver bracket as one member has mentioned to do the install?
