any tricks to mounting my Budbuilt sliders?

[Blasst]

since they are 80 lbs each I am planning on using several floor jacks , maybe some clamps and getting them up near being in place until I can get a bolt in. I'll figure it out as I get more into it and see exactly the fit.
Any hints appreciated.

My girlfriend is 105 lbs. My sliders are 80. I can handle that I think.... ))

I just installed my Slee sliders by myself. One floor jack in the right spot worked fine. Balance the slider fore/aft as best you can. Since you have a gf to run the jack, it will be easier since you can secure the slider while she jacks it up.

I would have let my gf help but my wife would have been pissed.....

LOL.....yeah I think you handled the situation in the best way .

Just using a floor jack was pretty much what I was thinking too. 80 lbs for the Budbuilts vs 60 lbs Slees shouldn't be too much difference.

Like with all sliders, the KDSS lines on the driver side is the only thing that makes install not very fast, but it's not like you have to drill out any holes or weld anything like the others.

Just take your time, slowly raising the jack (two is even better), and make sure the KDSS lines don't get snagged on the frame plate. Loose fit all the fasteners, then tighten them all up. Passenger side is crazy easy.

Thanks Rob...yeah I was hoping just a couple of floor jacks would do the trick. I'll keep an eye on the KDSS lines. Thanks for the input amigo. Hope you are doing good these days.
