Default Rock sliders

Well, I want from a short arm to a long arm. How my LOD rock slider don't fit any more. So now I have to look at options.

1. Cut the 3rd arm on the LOD rock slider and just have two arm holding up the slider on to the frame and hope that is strong enough.

2. Cut the 3rd arm on the LOD slider and relocate it somewhere in the back out of the way of the long arm.

3. Look for sliders that works on the long arm.

Looking Options and pictures.

I have that same long arm kit installed two weeks ago. My rails don't go either. I think TF may have redesigned that rear bracket.

I really like my LOD slider. I'm going to try to make it work if I can.

I have a friend that is tell me the same thing that you are saying so he can get my slider.

We cut the rear arm off and move it forward to clear the frame bracket.

You can order EVO MFG sliders for the teraflex long arm. The rear arm is not welded on to allow the installer to weld it forward of the teraflex bracket
