My Rock sliders

[dirtydog]

just a thought, why not add a couple of 32mm holes at either side to take a high lift jack???


they look great mate

if I add some should I drill the holes and put some tube through it or just leave it?

Think your best bet would be drill and insert tube through as well for strength and help the angle if the jack should slide out a bit.

Well ones done anyway.......

Took a while but i got there. Cheers to Gamedawn for the tips.

Better get the next one done . since i've got 1 slider and 1 step on just now.

Aye very nice.

How long did it take you??

[scotty]

nice work smithy,

will look good once painted up.

cheers scotty

[smiffy]

Cheers Scotty.

Just cut the metal for the other side so it's ready to be welded up
Bit of that red lead paint stuff and a coat of the finest hammerite money can buy.

Nik it took me about 8 hours to get it all sorted.( Hours here and there,mainly during work, ) Most of it was measuring and measuring again!! Cutting it all took a while and then there was the drilling the holes. Welding it was the easiest,left it in the work, came back and it was done

Dare say it could be done faster but hey,there's always tomorrow

[smiffy]

Thats them both done now painted and fitted,even got hold of some of the non slip tape

[Woodzie]

Did you use any padding to stop ware on the chasis ? also how well does it grip to the chasis as would have thought with a bolt top and bottom it would move a little . sorry for the questions as i am doing mine soon.......With alot of help

[smiffy]

No never used and padding. Once it's clamped to the chassis i don't think it'll move anywhere. It's solid. Had the high lift jack onto it and it never moved. So,so far so good.

[surfenstein]

youve painted them at long last then smithy,where did you find the tape in the end???.exo cage next then.

[smiffy]

Eventually got the tape off e blag. 8m x 50mm for £7 delivered. Bringing total cost of build to £40. :Grin:


Front bumper next me thinks Better get sourcing some materials.

[scotty]

VERY NICE,,

good that the hi-lift works off them as well.

did you make templetes?

i could see u making a few bob out of those, i'd have a set straight off.

cheers mate

excellent job.
just a thought for anyone else, non slip tape go to a local bike/skateboard shop they sell gripper tape for the board tops. i put some on my work van 4 years ago to protect the roof from the ladders and on the sill tops, works well and its cheap
