    Well absolutely and is for the mass majority. This why I said it wouldn't appeal to most. In my 14 years of building off-road products as Bash Fabrication I've made exactly two sets of these... Some folks just have different needs. The first guy had a truck with a drop bracket lift and his wife is like 5'4" so he requested them. This guy getting these is military and doesn't do any wheeling at all but all of his body mounts for typical "steps" were rotted out and he takes his grandma places so useful to him. He never plans to wheel however the strength of a slider will benefit him alot more now being able to use them for slider things in related to wheeling

    Look good on the outside but that washer is already screaming for help. Hope you never use them too hardcore. Hate when companies send out just a standard ass washer out with their sliders

    I've had them in my truck for five years or so. They are holding up really well. They honestly look like OEM seats if you don't know any better.

    Shoutout to @Soft Taco for a great video how-to. As expected the driver side was a PITA, but definitely doable, perhaps more so than I thought originally.

    job took 2 1/2 hours, most of that on the driver side and fighting electrical plugs (a pick helped) - 68k miles

    LOL yeah it's a bitch, even worse with the manual because we have extra lines to deal with on the drivers side. Not the worst thing I've ever done on a car but far from the easiest!

    Thx for the vid. TBH the way everyone talks about the driver side I was expecting much worse.

    But that's been my line of thinking for most of the work I've done on this truck lol (UCA's, leaf hangers, etc).

    The washers are an 1/8" thick and I bent it on purpose.

    Installed normally it was about an 1/8" from the brake lines so I kept torquing it down until it bent inwards to give me about a 1/4" clearance. It took a lot of force to bent that washer.

    Also that is the only one I bent, all the rest are installed properly. So 1 out of 14 bolts isn't bad

    Got a bunch of stuff done the last few days. Installed the new leaf springs, swapped out the needle bearing, and last but not least got some new shoes!

    Goodyear Wrangler Ultraterrain A/T's are a solid option. Very rugged looking. How do you like them so far?

    So far, so good! They're nice and smooth, not a lot of road noise. And, like a lot of people have mentioned, they look a lot more aggressive in person! Thanks for hooking me up @Discount Tire
