I am starting a new project, this one is Rock Sliders!! Way excited about it. I bought all the steel on Friday and It will all be here tomorrow So the plan is to start with the mounting plates and how i want to mount it to the frame of the truck. I want to blot it on and not weld it because i want the option to take them off to refinish them or just If I have to I guess. Second will built the bar for the protection and then tie the two together then add a round step bar onto it. I am going for the same design and Mountaineergreen's. His thread on his ( http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=173649&page=9 ) I love the look of them. I will be using 1/4 thick 2X4 for the bars and the ties to the frame. Then 1 3/4 round for the step bars, thats as big as my neighbors bender goes. Then will be powder coated at his shop down the street! I am hoping that they turn out as good as this.
Anyways will post pics of the build! Any help along the way or suggestions would be great!
