Well almost finished my sliders today. They are the 67" trail gear sliders. Got them all welded up just need to throw a couple coats of paint on then weld them to the frame.

It is just U-Pol Raptor liner. Its a DIY spray on that comes with its own gun. Really easy to do just takes time in prep. I had Herculiner on there for about a year and in that years span it was slowly disappearing. The sun was just eating it away. Then I found this raptor stuff and it had alot better reviews and had UV protection.

cool cool, thanks. ur truck looks badass man, ever thought bout a winch?
 






That is second on the list. I was looking at getting one then I thought I should make bumpers first. Was just going to use a receiver mount but somebody changed my mind.
 






i have been using a reciver hitch, not a fan but it works, im having a bumper made at the end of the month.
a winch is deff a good investment for a serious wheeler.
and looks awesome, haha
