Any write ups or how to's for homemade sliders?

I an thinking of having a set of sliders made for my 1st gen runner. I have searched the internet but I was wondering if anyone had dimensions and material lists for any homemade sliders. Any links or writeups would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

For 2nd gen 4Runners they are usually 60" long. That's how long my custom sliders are. You could call All Pro or Stubbs and get dimensions from them... I'll try and get some for you. If I remember...

I will give you dimentions if you wish. The only problem is with out knowing what bender die radius or tubing size etc. it would be hard to be helpful in respect to the outer bent bar.
On another note check into prices first as you might end up spending more money having them built at a shop around you. Steel prices are high, and unless they do this all the time the cost is likely high(due to time involved in set up)!
If you want the dimentions just email me. I have been super busy lately but I will answer all emails.
Take care,
Richard Stubbs
