Doing some computer cleaning and realized I never posted this and had meant to. I had built all the racks and bars for my wagon, I had the actual cad file for the folded metal part of the rock sliders but I have lost it, I have attached a picture of the cad drawing though. I have actually slid on a rock with them without any more damage than scratch and jacked up the whole side of the truck with floor jack on sliders so the hold up well. The metal I used was 1/8 or 3/16, cant remember which, could be aluminum or whatever I guess. The sliders attach to the factory running board threaded holes, like 4 8 or 6 mil per side and then also attaches to the frame with 10 or 8 mil bolts, just used angle iron to extend to frame. I'm at the hight where I don't use a step to get in and out of the vehicle and find it gets in my way but these can be modded to act as steps. I welded 1" sched 40 90's and pipe to the folded metal, could extend out more, could be square tubing, could be bigger pipe. Anyhow, if anyone is looking to build some sliders this may be helpful.
Oh, had to trim the one on passenger side to clear air tank, trimmed the part that shows fold up 90's on drawing, you can kind of see that on picture where they are primed.
