Installation
The 2005-2011 Tacoma Sliders can be ordered to bolt on or weld on. Both are built out of the same size material. The difference between the two is how they mount to the truck.
The bolt-on slider/steps are an alternative to the step bars. They are designed more for the people that like the looks of sliders but don't need the super-strength of weld on. We understand that some people don't want to weld to their frame or drill a bunch of holes in it to get the strength that they don't need. There is no drilling or welding required to install our bolt-on version; hardware is included. They simply bolt into the factory running board mounts. Because of the mounting location, these sliders are not intended to support the weight of the truck but can be used as steps, dent protection, and light off-roading.
The weld-on sliders are designed for the more extreme off-roading. The triangulated frame plate design allows the frame welds to be angled, this allows the frame to flex as designed unlike the normal vertical weld on designs. Four legs attach the sliders to the frame, making them solid enough for a hi-lift jack and strong enough to protect your truck through whatever situation arises out on the trail. We fully assemble the legs with frame plates and gussets. We leave the legs detached allowing you to set the positioning and angle of the sliders to your preference. Only welding is required for install..
