Hahahahahah.

6 years ago i installed white knuckle sliders on my power wagon, by myself, on my garage floor. They are getting rough, so last week i took them off to get them blasted and painted/powdercoated. I pulled them off the truck on a lift…and now im scared to put them back on because it was such a fawker to get them off. I might try it on the floor again just for old time sake.

Its absolutely grueling. Everything went pretty good with the front half. Cab was easy. It was the bed that gave me fits.
