Any photos of rock sliders or any suggestions as to how to mount them to the frame?

Thanks

heres a snap of mine...just weld em to the frame. you'll have to move your exhaust inside the frame rail though

Nice truck

Could you get under there and pop off a couple photos?
Trying to figure out where to weld to , measurements and how far the sliders should stick out.

Thanks

this is the only shot I have handy...I would reccomend 4 points to the frame, not 3....I had 3 and it was too weak, had to add the 4th...I'll try to get som better pics tomorrow 4U

man that truck is mint, I wish I had an OEM snorkel, any ideas on how to get one?

Looks like a safari to me I looked into getting an OEM snorkel. You can get the HAT in the US system I couldn't get the other parts although you can get them from japan. Problem is then you have to get an hzj airbox and the price is something like double what a safari runs.

Oh.. almost forgot. I had Christo at Slee Offroad take some measurements for sliders. I have to move the exhaust. But if you look and see how his 60, 80 and 100 series sliders are attached they are really nice. Hopefully once I can get a turbo and reroute the exhaust I'll have him build some sliders. He mentioned once he did them he would have the measurments and could be for sale.

It's just a Safari w/ the pre-cleaner on it...not OEM

Thanks for the photos.

Where did you get the u-bolt flip?
I like that the shock mount is in the regular spot.

The flip kit is a 60 series kit from MAF with one of bottom plates cut, flipped over and re-welded to maintain the factory shock mount position (60's have both shocks mounting on the same side of the axle)
