need help with slider setup

admin

hello im glad i found this forum i have tried searching and have found nothing but if there is a thread on this please link me it. i been working on a welding skid for my 6' GMC box and am wanting to make a slide out for my trailblazer 302, im just wondering what people have done for custom type builds. I know i can go buy one pre fabbed but it takes away from the custom skid feel, im looking for pictures and maybe diagrams and materials that will work for the slider set up, thanks for any help and i look forward to posting pics of my finished skid

Reply:hey thank you guys for the posts, i got some good ideas from the links provided i think ill try and use the cam followers and some channel, looks pretty easy to build and my machine is about 500ibs gassed up so it wont have to be heavy duty
