Well this set of sliders are officially done, coated them with steel-it and re-mounted.

Got majority of the welding done with swing out 1.2. Same style mounts and same basic design. Changed the handle a bit, moved the toggle clamp to the top and shifted the tire over some. Just need to make some weld tabs then prep for paint.

Can you give me more information on your dual battery setup? Are you running anything to isolate your crank battery from auxiliary battery like ctek or redarc? Also, did you build your own tray? Lastly, what setup are you using for your solar conversion?

Everything regarding the solar and auxiliary batteries are completely independent from main vehicle power. I would like to eventually incorporate the Redarc SBI12D mainly for the smart start feature as well as the option to run off the aux batteries anytime the vehicle is not running.
The solar panel and controller are Renogy. Bought it as a complete unit off Amazon then added the two 12v marine batteries.
Pretty much everything that looks aftermarket on the truck I built myself.

If anyone could use some rock guards its definitely you. I do wonder how much the undercarriage differs on the 2500's??
