Your truck looks, in the words of gangstas, "Ballin"

Looks awesome scuba

That drive way is what wet dreams are made of right there.

Is this truck that much more capable then your old truck I always thought they where about equal when it came to that type of wheeling.

Nice, but those sliders look a little short, they don't give you full rocker panel protection, are those for an older truck or somethin? Either way, they should do fine.

I believe they were ordered for his older truck..

They look good though... I think most sliders will have a small gap before and after that arn't covered. i think mine will have 1-2" inches on front and rear of the sliders that arn't covered.

You should come up here and give that thing a little trail character!
White sliders would have looked good if those other wheels worked out for you.

Looks great scuba! Isn't it going to be a PITA to paint those now that they're welded on?

I painted mine with bedliner and then welded them up, touch-up was a little bit of a paint but with a Mt. Dew box unfolded and cut with notches I made it work.

I wish I had some sweet spots to go trail riding like that around here, I have to drive at least an hour to get anywhere similar.

Fink, Im thinking it is, But ill get over it..ya know, I was at a friends house, 1.5 hours away, And i couldnt paint them before I went cause I didnt know where the legs needed to be welded on to the body of the sliders...and I didnt want to sit there for 4 hours watching paint dry...
oh, And the place I wheeled is about an hour away
