    Hi there, new to the forum. I received my Mob Town sliders the other day and they look great.

    I just noticed from looking at the hardware that the square washers with the bolt welded to them

    don't fit the hole pattern on the front flange, they are 1/2" bolts and the holes are 3/8", I think.

    Not sure if I can just drill the holes bigger or just need new hardware. I don't want to mess

    them up by drilling.

    Thanks

    Did you have any issues with the formed C portion of your install?

    No, after I disconnected the wiring harness clips from that part of the frame everything went smoothly

    Nice! Glad it went smoothly for you.

    Got mine on after 2 tries, but both times I had tons of issues getting the holes lined up on the formed C. After much time spent loosening bolts and trying to reposition things I was able to get them lined up just enough to sneak some smaller bolts through the holes that I couldnt line up all the way. Out of the 8 holes on the formed C for the both sides, I had to use 5 smaller bolts since I couldnt get them fully lined up. I'm not very happy with the beam clamp install either, but I plan on taking another look at all this soon and will see if 3rd time is the charm.

    For those of you who have purchased armor from Mobtown (esp. rock sliders), do they ever have sales? If so, what do they look like and when?

    A little late, but they current have their Black Friday sales going on. 10%/15%/20% off depending how much you spend. I bought from them because they get awesome reviews and they're close enough for me to pick up. Paid a little over $1000 for overland sliders and front skid.
