Outer Limits 4x4 Board

hey yeah i was just wondering how people have done side steps on their sierra? couldnt find anything on it in the bible so wondering if people could post some pics of how they have made their steps and where it bolts on. thanks.

i used 2x45deg 2x90deg and about 970mm of 32nb steam and some angle and m12x20x1.5 blots and nylocks with washers ive bolted them to the chasis body mounts

I'm going to hope you mean "sliders" because sidesteps don't belong on a 4WD.

You'll find lots of info on sliders, there's lots of ways to do them.



Here's some I made. They protect the sills but they're no good as steps.

oh ok, havent really heard much of sliders i must say but then again i would be considered new to 4wding but grew up on a farm near Mudgee so have learnt a ew things over the years but only now actually learning more technical things for myself.
ive seen quite a few sierras with sidesteps but they were more city cars.
so welding to the chassis doesnt vid the structural integrity or anything? i guess it depends on how good of a job you do but for getting a roady does it make much difference? really want to get more into metal fabricating.
thanks

bolt on ones.

do you make those joe?

yep.... should be ready in time for chrissy....

any idea on price?

Very cool Joe

some of the best sliders i'v seen joe

very nice. like your diff aswell lol

Mine clamp onto the chassis rail and are made out of 32nb and step down to 25nb

They're nicely fabricated zookprojectfnq, but you've added some pretty big anchors under the chassis.

I don't have any paint under my chassis, and I haven't seen a 1.3 that goes off road with a straight gearbox crossmember, so I'd suggest those lugs under the chassis are going to cost some capability.

Everyone to their own, I don't really value my sills (or panels in general) so I'd never add something under the car to protect panels that cost me capability, which is why the grey car's sliders were built the way they were.

They dont hang any lower then say the transfer case or spring hangers and i havnt found them to be any different off road and we have some pretty wild tracks up here
