Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hiya All,

Does anyone have a set of plans for fabricating some sliders from 2.5 inch tube? I would like to make a set for my 95' Dcab Lux for protection and for use as steps.

Thanks and Cheers, any suggestions would be great.

Hi Mate, i have plans but nothing on paper. It may be cheaper if we get 2 set smade up together. Sort of woth the fab joints/pesons time if you know what i mean.

I'm thinking, 3 mounts on Chassis (not sure how to mount yet - either weld or clamp or preferabble weld on a plate then tap into it and bolt on. Similar to Snake racing mounts i believe) with straight arms to main bar running just under the sill and level with the outside profile of the car, then a step section with curved ends mounted to main bar and supports between it and the main bar in a couple of places down the lenght, kicked up on an angle to protect sills so that the door clears them by about 10-15mm (i'm guessing it would be about 30-40 degree angle up from main bar).

What does everyone think, any takers for fab? i dont have the time or welding expertise to take this on. Any advice or help in building appreciated.

What do you think Milamber?

search is your friend

there are photos and thread and threads on this. All good stuff

Your ideas sound good, I think I'll go for the clamp on mounts. I am really looking for details (actual plans, measurements etc) of some that someone else has made. This should make the job a little easier. I am a decent welder but always seem to get things a bit wonky went I fab them without clear cut plans.

I am also getting quotes on getting some made, I think most of the 4WD places that stock/fab them are ummmmm a little over the top price wise for a few lengths of pipe and a couple of u bolts.

We all use IHFBN Plans.

In Head Fly By Night Plans, unless you can find the scrap of metal we drew on when planning, postage will kill you though.

I use heavy stuff, don't lose it that way.
