Here are the sliders mounted

Sliders Welded On

This is the easiest way for me to put the images up on here since the forum doesn't automatically re-size images.

 

Doesn't look like the link works. never mind it does

 

gravity helps get better pen welding bottom-top with mig... and scuba... running flux core is half your problem. Unless you're out in BFE in a windy storm throw that spool of flux into the garbage and get a shield tank!

I've installed a bunch of sliders, best method is to tack it all how u want it and pull it off weld it right and then put 'er back on. Tho i still put my scab plates on first then mock up the sliders... when you include the scab plates into your tack a thon... when you fully weld them to the sliders then go to fully weld the sliders to the frame its NOT gonna fit how it was... simple physics with the whole welding thing. Heat warp/shrinkage of metal parts. Tho a big o C-clamp is a good solution to that problem.

goodluck, this stuffs easy

 

X2 on the sheilding gas, its expensive at first for the tank, but well worth it. That flux core is just some nasty spattering crap! And for some reason when you swich the leads in your welder and start with slolid core the welder sounds like its operating alot smoother. Might just be me!

 

I have a question for the guys here with sliders. I plan on getting/making a set when I get back and read a little debating the welding/bolting on. For any of you guys that have welded them on have you ever regretted not just bolting them on so you could remove them later? I can't think of any reason to ever remove them but I've never had a set either......

 

I've only got a 110. The flux burns hotter so it's the best for me at the moment. If I had a 220 I'd have a bottle of gas like nobodies business.


Never regretted welding them on.
IDK, if you have a new truck then maybe that'll be a better bet but on an older truck.. don't waste your time bolting them on.
