I think there is no difference because your wheel base is the same , it would mean the step would go past cab to tray i think
lets u have a step to get to tub i suppose

Heres a question for you all to ponder over.....if getting custom sliders made up, to achieve an "as high clearance as possible" slider what do you guys think about cutting small section of the pinchweld under the sill and allowing the mounts to go through them to gain an extra inch?

just an idea I may look into one day.......

max that would also make it alot easeyer to get the braces from the chasie to the slider frame as you wouldent have to try and angel them down from the chasie but im abit cautios of cutting into my sill. my frame sits at the same level as the bottom pinch weld so its about 1/2 inch higher than dluxs. am going bush this weekend but will get one side finished next week and post a pic
