official slider build thread

[kenton]

sliders done and on, have a few rattles to track down

Just made the last weld.

I still need to build mounts for my p/s and build a set for the FJC, but I broke the belt on the band saw so it'll be next week before I get to those.

The band saw, cold saw and horizontal band saw I aquired since the last slider day sure would have helped.

Hope this pictures do it justice, because they look amazing.







And finally, all loaded up and ready for Cliffs... except, I didn't make it.

2nd that! The powdercoat looks real nice. You ready to wheel the 80 now?

I'm ready. In fact, I'm going to be wheeling it at Rausch on July 13th-14th, on 35" bead-locked BFG MT's, anyone care to come? Coal Mine Cruiser Classic, looking for some familiar faces to go with.
I've also penciled in 4rnr's event at the end of July at Cliff's, but that'll be in the 4Runner. Although I may take the '80 for a spin too...
