I will be installing bolt on sliders very soon. Frame is good shape, no rust. Once these are bolted on, I don't plan on removing them for a very long time, never. Any prep work I should do before the reinforcement/plates/hardware all get bolted on? I was thinking about hitting with some Fluid Film first, then installing. Any prep work recommended to ensure no metal on metal issues or rust over time?
