My husband wants to weld on some Evo rock sliders, however, we don't see how it is possible to run a weld on top of the scab plates (the vertical plates that weld to the frame). There is perhaps 2 inches of clearance, which doesn't seem like enough room to fit the electrode.

Do people normally run a weld along the top, or, is this left untouched? If it is welded, any tips on how to make a decent weld when you cannot really see what you're doing, and when there is so little room? I can't help but think this is an issue with any weld-on slider that uses scab plates.

Thanks so much!

ive done two sets.. .you can get up their pretty good.. it is tight, but it works.. i havent had any problems. plus i plug welded the holes also that they come with.. they are solid , not coming off. good choice in sliders

 

I welded mine on also. It's tight but you can do it.

 

As Mentioned try and get all the way around if you can
