I need some 2x4 for sliders too....just wondering if you got a deal.
I work for myself. It depends on how much I buy. If I get 1 24' stick of 2x4 it's a hair over $100. I haven't bought in bulk in a while so I can't remember how much it effects the price.

That's some great welding! One day I hope to be able to weld that good. Are you going to cut out your rockers and weld those in or are you going to make them go below the rockers?

They going below the rockers. The sliders I made for my jeep replaced the rockers. There is a lot more work involved in that.
