Does anyone sell a do it yourself slider rail that just needs to be welded on? Im an experienced welder but unfortunately dont have access to a tube bender. I just want a kit with bent tubing to weld to my stock rubicon sliders.

Those look good. How much abuse can the stock rails hold up to I wonder? The trails up in the NW mostly consist of mud with tight trees and roots. Im thinking the stock rails should be fine.

Wicked cool product!

I am a newb at fabrication and welding, but want to get started. This is an affordable and practical way to learn some skills and get some needed functionality out of my Rubicon rails.

And on the note earlier of frame tie ins to make these suitable for slider duty, they look to offer a kit soon to bolt on the frame. As frame welding is not for the inexperienced, I do appreciate that aspect.

This made my wish list.

They need to hurry up and get that tie in so that way i can just order and weld it all up at once.

Holy crap, time to find a set of factory take offs. I just saved $800+ from the White Knuckle ones I really wanted.

That sucks. I was hoping to get a set of those too. I'll keep watching to see if anyone else knows of someone.

If anyone is in se tn we can check one of mine to see if they match up to the rubicon rails. If they match up it would be just marking the holes and doing some nutserts. If I run across anyone local with rubi rails I’ll try to check myself.
