So, if you have rock sliders and you fill the gap between the frame and and the slider with sheet metal or similar, from reading the rules, this is not considered a boat side, and/or is this legal in class one?

Thanks

You would have to remove a bunch of the bottom of the doors/cab for it to be considered a boatside.

If the skid/sliders looks like this from the front or rear: \_/ That's more of what a boatside looks like.

Here's a couple a examples.....


Boatside, heavy cutting of the bottom of the cab. Like Tim stated above \_/.




Slider, no cab modification........



Same truck, bottom view. Sliders are flat and double as body mount/battery holder. These are made from flat metal, but show the same concept as plating the bottom or top of tube sliders.
