Excellent, simplified, process Mike. No fancy tools, just a very simple procedure. Those sliders aren't cheap, then add the powder coat and things start adding up. If you're going to off road gotta have em. 👍 Wished Loren would have helped, maybe next time.
I have been watching all of your 4Runner videos, as I am in the process of purchasing one. I am going back and forth on the amount of lift I want to begin with because I will be keeping the stock size tire (BFG KO2). In this video, do you have the 1.75/1.5 lift? Trying to get an idea of what different lifts look like.
After you drilled the 5/16" holes, did you have to thread the holes or were the bolts self threading? Hopefully the powder coating job included the proper prep to keep rust from forming under it. I don't think I would powder coat a slider because of the fact that the rocks or trees you hit will scrape it off. A good flat black would let you spray over the dings. Thanks for the videos you do.
They were self-threading. I took it to the beach this past week and did see a bit of rust under the step plates but fortunately I live in a dry climate so further rust is unlikely. Probably should have removed those prior to powder coating though. I agree it will be a bummer if they get scraped but I already had one small nick that I sprayed with black undercoating and it blends right in. I'll plan to maintain with that should further scrapes occur.

Looks good. I like how it still gives the visual ground clearance too.
This guy deserves more subscribers
Thank you for that. Just glad to have those of you that are here!
Awesome sliders!

Great looking Surfski ~ is that an epic?
Yep!
What torque spec did you use for the sliders?
