Weld on Rock Sliders for your Nissan Pathfinder

ryan-welding-slidersFinding a pair of production rock sliders for Nissan Pathfinders isn’t easy,  but Trail-Gear has been making weld on rock sliders for Toyota’s which coincidentally work out really well.

I recently ordered up a 67″ set from Trail-Gear along with the plate and gusset kit for use on my 1990 Nissan Pathfinder. After cutting the standoff tubes to length locating the inner slider tube directly under the pinch seam on the rocker panel, the slider was angled up at 30 degrees. This put the sliders in a functional position as well as made them visually pleasing.

Fontana Nissan Car and Truck Meet

On December 12th, Fontana Nissan in Fontana, CA had a Meet complete with Tommy’s Burgers and a raffle.  Everyone was encouraged to bring their car truck or SUV. The parking lot was flooded with small fast cars with a few build Nissan trucks mixed in.

After grabbing a  burger, I checked out the trucks and snapped a few pictures despite the inclimate weather.
