lol your not the only one who says that. The rock sliders are sealed, and connected with a manifold to the 2.5 gal air tank underneath. Each slider holds like 1.5 gallons if I did the math right.

Now If I just air up my tank and sliders to 150psi, put my tires at 35psi, I wonder if I could just float across rivers??

i like those, i think i will go build my own sliders now. powdercoat them and they probably look better than trail gear sliders anyway.

and i know one of you s is gonna say there not for looks but dont even go there. lol my rig has to look good doing it.
