Serious PROPS. Those are the best built sliders I have ever seen on yotatech. NICE.

Will they support your vehicle when used in conjunction w/ a highlift jack?

Yeah they will suport the vehicle. It's not mine though. It's a buddy from my NCTTORA chapters' rig. Next is the x-cab protector and then it is the rear bumper then to the front bumper, THANKS!

The ones I built are wider also, they completly cover up the body lift that is on the truck.

How much are those?

I can build a few sets of these if there is an interest. BUT to make it easy on me I can only do them for the x-cab trucks with a 3" body lift. $250, all you have to do is grind 3 spots on your frame and weld the plate to it.

If you want them from DOM the price is a little more

My friend and I made a set for a 01 Taco this summer. It took us 2 nights to do it and a couple packs of smokes. It was defenitly worth it. Instead of paying 199 or 250 for them, we made them for 75. They have worked wonders!!!!!

Definately good work, as you all can see they are done, with the exception of some sanding then the final coat of paint. Cant wait to test them out at Callalalantee on the TN run.
