Has anyone bought or built a set of sliders that resemble the shape of the stock steps?
1" or so tube welded to some angle and bolted to the body.
I want to use the existing holes for mounting. With frame suppports of course.
Should look something like this just using tube.

Here's a link to the sliders that are on my 40:

The channels are good in stock at FaultlineFab. I had Simon bend the tubes to approximate the shape of the running boards. Some of the guys in my club think I should top them with diamond plate, but I like the open tube design just the way Simon made it.

Maybe Woody can add my pic to the slider/protection page. :)
 
74FJ, I have been to that page. My pic at the top of this thread is the first pic on the slider page. *Thanks Woody* :)

65swb45, Thanks, That is exactly what I had in mind. Thanks for the attachment. I did not run accross that one when I did a search.

And yes, I did do a search...
 
Is Faultline Fab still around?
I went to www.faultlinefab.com and this is what it said
"The requested resource

Poof and its gone.
 
If you just want the channels, I can get those for you tomorrow. If you want tube bent and attached, I will have to work on that one.

I want to build some like that for mine too. I was thinking of cutting up an old stock rollbar that I have which already has the bends in it. Some 3/16 flat stock and I would be in business.

That's basically what I got from Faultline, except that Simon used a few smaller tubes between the channel and the outboard tube, instead of one big one. Hth.
