So you`ve nut serted the body? the photo`s at the top have chassis & body mount`s & that could only lead to trouble.. Been thinking along these line`s for the Gv, no out riggers tho.. |

i was thinking that 2 weather 2 make it just body mounted or do like they have and no im not going 2 nut sert the body ill drill thro and plate the opposing side and do it that way with a sleve ova the bolt so not 2 crush the body when doing it up |

I think the bolts through to the floor pan will cop a grinding(?) You could use dome head bolts with allen-key socket so they slide better...? Just a thought |

I'm curious about this too, isnt there a lot of flex between body and chassis, and arent this things possibly going to tear the body apart now? |

in what way would they tear the body apart they r bolted thro the floor and the other bolts r staight on 2 the chassis and i have elongated the bolt holes that go thro the chassis so they have movement |

 These would be the neatest and most practical looking sliders I have ever seen without cutting the sills out.

I did similar using 6mm alloy checkerplate years ago. I was gonna use steel but it was way to heavy and massive overkill. |

looks nice - i'd pump a crapload of sikaflex or silicone into the sill area before attaching to make sure mud/sand/water doesnt get trapped in the gap and rust it out. |
