Re: Aluminess Sliders(pics)

Any update on these yet? Any complaints? I'm trying my hardest to not call up Aluminess right now and place my order........ :cash: Though after more thought, I think I'll get the basic version without the extra rail coming off. If you have any updated pictures, be sure to throw those up on here to...

Re: Aluminess Sliders(pics)

Have you tried a HiLift on them yet? I'm curious to see if they deflect at all. They sure look nice - wish they could tie them back to the frame or a body mount tho. My modified stock rails deflect slightly with the weight of the truck on them. The additional 5.50" of the step adds a lot of leverag...

Aluminess Sliders(pics)

As you all know there are very few options out there for our trucks in the way of a functional slider. Aluminess does not show these on their website and only builds them to order. The customer service at Aluminess was fantastic and the sliders arrived a week earlier than promised. They are very hea...

Coming from Jeeps you wanted your sliders to be body mounted, but those were bolted through the side and bottom of the body making it one piece tha...

Re: Power Wagon Picture Thread
