What dimensions are shown on the slider drawing?

The top view shows a 6-inch dimension across the slider, and the rear view of the driver's side slider shows a 1-inch dimension.

What modification is requested for the frame mounting plate?

The author asks if the frame mounting plate can be made as one solid long plate rather than two separate plates like on the fabricator's regular slider.

Why does the author want an extra plate along the slider?

A plate running the length of the slider, welded to the chassis-mounted plate and tacked to the legs, would allow lead sticky weights to be added for low and centered weight distribution.

Is this drawing for a full-size truck?

The document notes the item is '1/10th the size,' indicating it is for something at 1/10 scale, and the author acknowledges small details like angled ends may be hard to fabricate at that size.

This document is a hand-drawn/computer-drawn concept diagram for custom rock sliders (side protection bars) intended for a truck, apparently drawn as instructions to a fabricator. It includes a top view of the driver's side slider (with the front of the truck oriented to the right) showing a 6-inch overall width, and a rear view of the driver's side slider showing a 1-inch dimension. A color legend explains the drawing conventions: light gray represents round tube, dark gray represents square tube, and red represents a flat tab sticking up to hold the body, ideally made of the same metal as the fabricator's regular frame mounting plates. The author asks whether the frame mounting plate can be made as one solid long plate instead of two separate plates as on the fabricator's regular slider. The author also requests an additional plate running down the length of the slider, welded to the chassis-mounted plate and tacked to the legs, so lead sticky weights can be added for low, centered weight distribution. A detail sketch asks if the tube ends can be angled, noting the item is 1/10th scale, which suggests this may actually be for a scale model truck rather than a full-size vehicle.
