Project #2 from Tacoma747: Category: Off-road, custom Rock Sliders (step bars)

[Tacoma747]

Started building some rocksliders for a friend/customer today for his 88' Toyota 4runner, figured they would be a great project to post pictures of.

They are pretty easy to make, more time consuming than anything with notching tubes, and bending the outer tube. I am not going to post any exact measurements, because if someone decides to make some, they are going to be a 'custom' size anyways. The straight tube on these is 62" long. The tubing is 1.75" .120 DOM.

Here you can see that where I welded the legs that attach to the frame on the tubes, it actually bowed the tubes pretty far. Not enough to notice unless you put it next to a straightedge though.





I'll have some more pictures tomorrow after I get them welded on to the 4runner.
