Pulled the plug on Metal Tech sliders... be here Fri.

[S.CarolinaFZJ80]

My Metal Tech Sliders should be here by Friday. Anyone want to lend a hand putting them on Sat. afternoon?

If you don't find any help, use a floor jack and a jack stand. That's how I had to do mine, as I had no help. Install took less than an hour for both sides, and that with issues due to my bent exhaust.

 

[S.CarolinaFZJ80]

Thanks! I have a pair of jack stands to balance each slider too!

Just watch your head while installing them. That steel isn't soft at all.

Does this mean you're running Big Bear with us?

I'm not going to ask how you know.

I hope. Still have some other things to take care of on the rig this week.

Nice! Looking forward to wheeling with you.

 

[S.CarolinaFZJ80]

Thanks. Looking forward to wheeling with you too, hitting some new trails and good times.

I am headed up to Julian for a wedding otherwise I would give you a hand. You may want to hit up the SD Cruiser Forum.
*Never mind you already did.*

Pulled the plug? I thought you meant you euthanized some sliders.

Pulled the trigger? It's equally as menacing but somehow has the opposite meaning! Good luck with the install!

Ah c'mon cut the guy a break, it's not "Rocket Surgery!"

Ok, Stewie,

Pulled the plug, pulled the trigger. If you want to split hairs, they both have negative conotations and imply killing something by indirect or direct action.

My reference was merely to "pulling the plug" on the idea bulb that his been burning for awhile now. Thus ordering sliders extinguishes the bulb hence the "pulling the plug" analogy.

 

[S.CarolinaFZJ80]

Jeez! I didn't mean to kill the thread. Stewie - I was just messing with ya!

Those MT sliders will be a complement to that F & R bump and that rig will fully be John Bull qualified....

 

[S.CarolinaFZJ80]

Thanks kimosabe - I have the cruisin offroad skid plade on order too. Unfortunately it wont be here by the 17th. I liked the coverage it provides.
How do you like their sliders?

 

[KimoSabe]

sliders work well, it was a toss-up between MT and Jason's bolt-on sliders, but after talking with Jason, he hooked me up with a nice shelf space on the driver side. I will be mounting 2, 2.5 gallon, air tanks.... let me know about that skid plate, that's next on my list....

 

[S.CarolinaFZJ80]

Well I got the Metal Tech sliders yesterday and installed today.

Wow! great quality.

Sorry. It was dark when I finished.

I'll snap some pics between the Bolts game and the Eagles game.
