Adding Simple Steps To Your Rock Sliders. (Great Beginner welding Project).
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 сен 2020
- Let's improve the protection and usability of our rock sliders by adding a small step! This is a great project for folks that are brand new to metal fabrication and you don't need advanced fabrication tools or experience to build these. Any welder, grinder and pipe bender (even the HF pipe kinker) is all that is necessary to build a great set of rock sliders. If you want to spice it up with a dimple die, these can be found at Swag Off-Road, sold in single die or even Ebay! Unlock a little creativity and build one of a kind parts for your 4x4! Rocker protection is a great way to start!

So glad you went full time on this you have my favorite offroad RUclips channel and the fab is top notch
Thank you! I'm honored!
i'll pay
When you described how to bend and measure the tubes- my brain just shut off and couldn’t comprehend a thing haha
I was writing my letter to Santa for Christmas and number 3 is to fabricate like Dirty Nate from RUclips.
I’ll keep my fingers crossed. Great video again man!
Lol awesome
On the back porch, whiskey in hand, and watching Dirt Lifestyle. Hard to beat!
Can't wait to get a welder and start working on projects like this! Thanks for the video!
Been eyeballing these rock slider DIY videos of yours lately and they are pretty damn nice, filled with tips and how to do things. I'm fairly confident I could now start fabricating sliders to my Jeep WK and even make them look decent 😁
Always quality content and fabrication!
Thanks!
Awesome timing. Sliders are the next step for my XJ. Can’t wait to get some more stuff built.
Design on the fly is completely my fabrication style! Love it!
best channel out. love how detailed your explanations are and how you tell us the alternatives to what you choose to do. and always good to see you use the ‘backyarder’ type tools too, good to see you don’t need all the expensive stuff to still produce good quality work 👌🏼👌🏼
Man, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE & RESPECT YOUR WORK.
Very Very nice!! Less is more! And those sliders are perfect! I like the fact that you picked a weld pattern for them. Practiced and achievement!
Thanks Nate. Appreciate the explanation for the design you chose. I need to build mine for the FJ60.
That sticker is.... awesome.
"I'm walking on sunshine! Oh oh"
😁
Man! You’re edits have always been great but this is movie like!! Great for you man!
You just made what I'm thinking of making. You solved /answered many of my questions. 👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸
Awesome sliders. Gives me some ideas to try for running boards for my van.
Subscribed.....got a 1990 Bronco im gonna combine your instruction on DIY Rock Sliders and this video with the step to make a set of sliders for it. I cant wait!
Excellent, just fabbing up my sliders for my RAM 1500. Keep up the great content 👍👍
Love the fabrication mindset! Those welds looks amazing! This is my go to channel for Disco mods! Keep up the good content!👍🏻
Awesome video! This is what I'm going to be doing to my XJ very soon after I fix the rust issues lol.
Bro you just got a subscriber.and patron.just sent you ahondo.love your ch.realy itsyor presents.deminior.your just a normal guy.thats figured things out.1 thing I like is family videoes.like y'all go 4x4ing to a camping spot.we goabout 6weekends ayear.i love seeing families in to this.and your wife is kick ass she's got your back bro.
Now that's just great....more stuff I have to buy. I just got the welder you have. I want to get the finger brake and the dimple die and punch set. Piece by piece it will happen. Just keep it up and I will keep buying stuff and having fun in the shop. I'm gonna be in soooo much trouble with the wife. LOL
Hi Nate, I was planning on building rock sliders soon, and those dimple dies turn it from functional to awesome.
Thanks 🍻
Cheers Aaron
That was great! I wish they were on my Jeep. Thanks for the video! 🇺🇸
Wow! Those are awesome! Can’t wait to make some for my Rzr on my channel. Your fab videos are quickly becoming some of my favorites to watch! I learn so much!
Your barnes code has saved me about $100 so far on my 1 ton swap, and that's just the front axle. Thank you!
Gha, Nate... You are just killing it! The quality is 👌. All of the shot setup... Yee yee! Thanks for taking the time... We appreciate it more than you know!
Thank you! Much appreciated!
Your such a Inspiration for me your fabrication work is amazing and love the Channel
Could watch welding all day. Beautiful work👌👌
Your ability to teach is unparalleled. You should consider writing how to guides and create a full didactic guide compiled into sub sync series in order or arrange your videos on here to act as a how to guide which tells a full build in order. Truly thank you for sharing Nate!!!
Thank you very much, that is a giant compliment and I appreciate it 👍
That was really cool, i cant wait to start on my new comanche project and make a simmilar style front bumper as the low
Buck
I love this channel. This is what overlanding is all about, not buying every piece of custom gear under the sun. Make your own and having fun! Too many $150K rigs on youtube and far too few really really cool custom ones!
Thanks for the awesome ideas in this video I was just going to make some rock sliders in the coming week thanks alot from Australia
Just want to say thank you for doing what you do I try to watch every video I can you do a great job of explaining things I'm just starting out in the Fab keep it up
Good call on not reversing the dimple dye! Works with the roof rack way better. I would ryno liner type paint to off set the loss of traction.
Good stuff, going to do this to my sliders in the future so saving this as a reference. Thank you!! 🍺
Always interesting seeing other perspectives on armor. I would never be worried about/never seen getting a tree stuck between tire and slider (being in the desert) but my kickout sliders have pushed me away from walls and rocks loads of times, I would never not have a kickout for the wheeling I do. PNW wheeling is so different than the Utah desert.
I love the fabrication content paired with the offload experience stories - very cool
I take my jeep on the beach a lot. The dimple dies like you have them are more friendly on bare feet. Looks good.
Man you make this stuff look so easy haha. Not that it's a really hard task but its seems so easy watching your videos. Another quality video! Keep up the great work man.
I really enjoy watching your work on your disco.. I am rebuilding one from scratch aswell for expedition .. all d way from Malta ! really good work !
Its fantastic to see the quality and great ideas with simple tools. Not a $4000 tube bender but things a Do it yourselfer can purchase at the local Harbor Freight and it works. Great channel.
Absolutely brilliant.. Luv n best of luck from India
Love your videos & your disco. Keep up the great work 👌
Sweet setup! Good info! Might consider this for an add on, cheers
Paint the step and apply some non skid or soft sand to the top.
Love how far your channel has come btw man! I remember watching your first build years ago. Stay humble and ride the success train. Don’t have any 4x4 rigs but I enjoy watching your builds as if they were my own.
Thank you!
thanks! Your shots have solidified the design i'm going for. I snagged a flux core welder and have been practicing on 1/8 plate. Just bought a bunch of 1018 dom and square tube and am starting on the build for my '19 ranger. The FCAW welder doesn't make particularly pretty welds (can't stack dimes because of the flux), but i'm making some strong stringers and will just grind smooth anything too ugly :)
Beautiful work and agree with the dimples facing down👌👌🤘
Great job Nate. Always enjoy watching your mad fabrication skills!
Thank you!
Saludos amigo desde Antofagasta Chile mi amigo 🇨🇱siempre veo todos los vídeos son muy buenos y se aprende mucho gracias por enseñar lo que sabe 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Your videos are so entertaining, I real enjoy how you answered the questions that I have in the episode. I honestly doubt I will ever build anything like what you can do but I like watching you build them. 👍🏻
I appreciate it my friend 👍
Good timing for this video. In the process of making sliders for my YJ. Thanks
Nice! Good luck with the YJ! 🤘
These turned out great!
AWESOME! Thank you Nate ~ Excellent detail and craftsmanship as usual!
Thank you!
That's some nice fab man! Thanks for sharing ☺
Чувак ты крут... ничего не понимаю но лучше увидеть то что ты делаешь своими руками чем это услышать ...
You made a good move with your own channel. Really enjoy your work.
Well crap now I want to take my sliders that are exactly like the old classics from 15 years ago with the three center supports and add some webbing to them. I had been using some traction tape but that stuff wears and looks like crap after a season. With two young kids and a wife riding around in my TJ with me getting them in and out safely is important. This was awesome and thanks for inspiring a beginning fabricator!
Those look so dope. Great work Nate
Buying my first welder this weekend. This will absolutely be my first project. By the way, LOVE the depth of field in your product shots 👍👍 Thank you!! Love your videos.
Nice! It can be frustrating at first but enjoy yourself and take your time! You will love 🤘
Another nice build my friend. Very informative.
I worked over 10yrs to accumulate my tooling...chassis dyno, TIG/MIG/Plasma/benders/fab tables/lifts.....but unfortunately I lost it all. Working hard to get back and started my youtube channel 10mo ago...would love to get back to fabbin...for now I'll watch you do it. I used to fabricate all custom forced induction systems, headers, intake mani's, etc. Hard work, but sick when it's done.
That looks incredible !
Enjoy it a lot.Thanks for your videos.Adsome.GBY!
Another excellent video. Thank you.
Another great how to vid. Always very informative!
Looks fantastic. We had the same HF bender in our shop without the power assist (we added length to the handle) and it was definitely a workout. I tend to overbuild so the only thing I would have done different is add pieces of tubing at either end of the plate for added bracing (though admittedly, it wouldn't have looked as good).
Fantastic, Nate! Big help. 👍
Clean work man!
Great Video Nate! Super clean side steps and well laid out and thorough thought on the process! Also really killer meeting you last weekend at Tahuya in the wife’s Disco!
Now I have to follow you, LR3! Very Nice Additions!
"The bananas".... Haha... love it!! I love the way those came out. Looks fantastic!
This is like watching Michaelangelo working through his sculpting process. well done sir, cant wait to incorporate this into a future build of mine!
Thanks Joe 🤘
He definitely is a fab artist.
Congratulations, excellent video greetings from Peru
As Always an amazing video to pass the time and to encourage my imagination
I can't wait for the episode when you dimple all the body panels on one of your rides! haha
Great videos, editing and super helpful info for someone who doesn't know what they're doing (me). Keep it up dude!
Lol thanks man!
You never disappoint Nate . Great job my friend . Looks amazing and very strong . Take care and be safe my friend.
Thanks brother 🤘
Awesome video im just getting in to doing fabrication on my avalanche so this help out alot 👍
Looks really good!
Always awesome info and knowledge. Keep up the hard work, favorite channel by far hands down
Thanks!
Hands down one of the best fabrication channels here on RUclips. I'm always impressed on the quality of work both in fabing up stuff and video editing. Keep up the great work 👍
Thank you! Much appreciated!
Those turned out great,I am looking forward to seeing all you have in the works for the Disco, it's looking awesome brother 👍
Thanks buddy!
love the work man !
Thank you for the video! I intend to do steps like this on my old truck now. 😀
It’s an beater of a truck that is a total sleeper. No one realizes it’s a muscle truck when they look at it. I think the steps will just help it look like more of the bad ass that it is while maintaining a low profile. 😀
Hey, to combat the compromise of going with the traditional dimple direction, instead of inverted for more traction, after paint, you could "Tread" the dimpled center section with grip tape!! You get the look,And traction!! Awesome videos man, keep up the good work!!
Excellent video! You've set me up for a bunch of projects with my 48 CJ2A and my wife's 2000 Disco 2.
If you wan the traction anyway, there's a pretty simple way to do it. Once it's painted, mask the tubes so just the plate is exposed. Then spray a heavy coat and sprinkle some sand on it. Let it tack up a bit, then spray over the sand.
The more 'proper' way would be to get a can (not spray can) of matching paint and mix the sand directly in. Then brush it on. Both methods work with a bit of practice.
Well done as always man !
Finally a slider video.
That was cool bruh keep up the good stuff
Good stuff, as always!!!
Great video. I’m going to add this to my Jeep.
I really like your work, great stuff
Hi Nate,
Great video, as always. I love that you explain how to get the same result without having all the expensive tools. I’m new to fabrication and am learning a huge amount from your no bullshit videos, thank you.
Have you ever done a video fabricating a swing away tyre mount? It’s my next project and I’d like to see how you would do it.
Great videography as well 👌
nice. i would totally buy a set of these for our Disco.
Soooo good job and cool content!
This is the type of content I love, keep it up
Thanks!
Nice work mate. Very popular mod here in Australia 🇦🇺 love the content you’re teaching people. Your style has improved since you left ya mates over on the other channel!
Good video. Keep them coming
