Rock Sliders
Just installed a set of Ruff Stuff frame stiffeners, and now Im making a set of rock sliders. Heres my progress. Tubes were capped off, and need to be ground down. Supports need to be made. Also gonna run a tube along the outside. I'll post more pics as I go along.

The tubing is 2"x3" .188" wall rectangle tubing.
Im going to be tying it all into the frame stiffeners with 1.20" wall 1.50" round tubing in four locations. They will be welded to the frame. I will also be tying it to the body just beyond the rocker panels at the seam using tabs and bolts. I'll post pics later so you get a better idea of what Im talking about.

Here is a pic of what i'm talking about.
I may add gussets, but I'm more than confident that with 4 support tubes welded to the frame/stiffeners, that they will be plenty strong.
