I started on my sliders today. The first step was having some 1-5/8" 0.120" wall tubing bent by a local custom bumper fabricator. I already had some 2"x2" 0.250" wall for the main rectangular tube. These are 43" long at the longest. If you're thinking of making some, remember that I cut the lower 2" off my rockers. Oh, and there's no need to use 0.250" wall tubing--its just what I had laying around.
I used a 1-5/8" hole saw to make the middle piece. 1-3/4" might have worked a little better--I had to open up the hole a little afterwards.
update: here's where I finished them: http://senoraguas.blogspot.com/2012/01/rock-sliders-finished.html
