The PSC 2 door corners, where'd you get them? I thought they didn't make those for the two doors anymore and if they do why can't I find them anywhere?

I'm curious, too. Are you saying the frame-mounted pre-runner sliders actually flex into the body? I've been looking at them, but not if this is the case.

I know, the body mounts flex

Unfortunately mine have made contact with my pinch seam in multiple places.. not sure if anyone else had that issue. Regardless, I'm going to a body mount to make way for long arms one day... EVO or no other frame mount will work.

Whelp... I ended up pulling the trigger on my body mounted Rocker Knockers.... figured if they're good enough for Mr. Rose of River City Offroad, they'll do for me.

Those are NLA.. have been for awhile. 2 doors get no love.
