DIY Rocksliders

Post by Sebata »

so this past weekend learnt few things about our friendly Ali3n, give him 76mm steel pipe & he came up with awesome rock-sliders design, with high-lift point, 12mm recovery points & 10mm brackets.

all i can say is my truck looks beautiful, will upload the finished product pics tomorrow.

thanks a mil Francisco, you are a good man indeed :thumbup:
