there was this one guy on the internet the other day showing some rock sliders he made....

Dude, there's hundreds of places on the net to find pics of them.
My tires were rubbing in the front, so I trimmed the hood, and now they're fine...

Would this work at all. Was just having a play today on the pc with designs.

using about a 4-5" thickwalled pipe and cutting section in the middle to fit over the sill. possibly on the ends keeping the full round to go over the ends of the arches. Weld on or bolt maybe. Thinking tube is stronger than box i thought.

cheers

YEP trust me my drivers side is completly farked from where i broke both swivel pins, and the wheel departed... out, smashed the sill pannel up then under the back wheel b4 the diff hit the ground and we came to a sudden hult.. this was a 60kph.. luck i didnt roll.
i have to cut mine out and weld a new pannel in there



one day :armsup: :armsup:

this would work if you plated the sill first with 5mm to 8mm angle...

not saying to copy but have a look at shrockworks to see how they mount it without going onto the chassis..
