J -Truck Slides

[rstep]

Been working on these since February with the help members on here. Started with rock slides to fit a 6' short bed and have the first 3 sets ready to weld up.
Using 2x2 x.120 box for the main piece with 1.5 or 1.75 ,.120 round . one is DOM tubing .They will bolt on using the bolts on the rear tranny mount location and then in the back bolt on centered at the cross mount .

Set of mount plates

Tube cut and washed ready to bend



First one laid out.


What they will look like



A set of all round tube on a Wagoneer.






Should give a good idea of what they will look like, still have to cut the mounts and get a few sets mounted on rigs. The plan is by next month all the first sets will be where they need to be.
More come.

A picture of the mount plates.

Stuka the mounts only go up the frame 4" so it should clear the fuel line.The length I used for the mounts was 48"

[Stuka]

Yeah those look like they should clear the lines fine. Those are some beefy mounts!

[Renodemona]

Do they still clear without a body lift? Are you thinking of fabbing some up to sell down the road?

[rstep]

Yes they clear with out body lift, Renodemona . Yes I am thinking of starting to sell these.

[rstep]

Well this took awhile but finally have a step that is easy to build and has the dimple plates that can be added.
