mine are in but ill give a hand they were real easy to install i was surprised. my only tip is mount them then paint em to avoid beating up the paint just my :2cents:

what sliders you get?

super skinks

install is super easy. hold the sliders into place and mount it down with the 3 bolts on the seam. mark holes to be drilled on unibody frame. remove sliders. drill holes. i recommend getting a good drill bit, little pricey but totally worth not having the hassle. i drilled a pilot hole, larger hole and used a step up drill bit to get the right size. mount it up.

my sliders are beat. i really need to touch up the paint before they start rusting. :banghead:

thanks for the input.... i got some really good bits since my dad used to do metal work so I'm clear in that department

I used a nice Unibit bit to drill mine went really nice and easy plus could easily choose my size and go up easily without having to change bits. Also and air wrench with a good extension would be suggested or just a good exstension.

Whose got some garage space that we can get these things under the Jeeps? Or will we have to wait till spring? It's killing me walking by them in the basement and not walking by them when they are under the Jeep!
Bueller??? :lol:

I really wanna get mine on, i have a garage unfortunately none of our jeeps will fit in it.. not because its not big enough inside, but the door wont allow for it...

I don't have sliders to install now but would enjoy hanging and riding after... Ill watch to see if you get some space. I'm in PA and have access to a garage but alas, the door size prevails.
