Thanks.. there is more to it that didnt get filmed, its such a tight spot to weld and have a camera next to you. Ill get some video of the completed inside of the slider on the next video
I’ve seen people weld 3/16 plate to the a/b/c pillars and then weld their square tubing to the plates. Those sliders get worked hard and have held up great!
Love this build from start to finish! I'd love to do 40s,but I think I'll be doing 37s instead. I am really digging those steelies and especially the color. I have a burgundy colored 80 and would love to get some steelies and make them thay bronze color. What did you do to make them look so good and hold up so well?
Thanks man. I got the wheels from summit racing, they were black and i just scuffed them up and painted them with spray paint from home depot.. but, im really really good with spray paint.
What width painters tape did you use when cutting off the factory rocker panel? I really like the idea of the 2x6 slider vs the rest on the market. How sturdy are the sliders in this configuration?
I have so much ground clearance that i doubt ill ever stick them on a rock. Id imagine theyre less strong than a frame mounted setup, but there is a ton of sheet metal and the 3 pillars tied in, so itll spread the load nicely.. tape was 1”
I see you went a different direction in the paint color, I like it a lot! Fantastic work as always. Love the time lapse of the locker install!
Looking good man. Cant wait to see it in person.
Interesting way to do the rockers. I was skeptical until I watched the entire thing. Fantastic work!!!

@@stefan3225 love the creativity with those types of builds for functional design
Picked up a rusty 80 and planning to do the same thing! Sweettt
