I think youve got that perfect. Maybe just a tad too far out.

Looks good to me. Sliders don't do much good if they aren't the farthest thing sticking out other than the tires.

Frame is purdyful

Edit: oh and spring for a damn welding mask, your welds will be 50 times better when you can use both hands

Guys in the east that deal with trees more tend to have them stick out a little further than those of us who deal with rocks more.

I think they look pretty good - where does the inner rail hit in relation to the pinchweld?
