    I received my bolt on sliders from Avid but no instructions on how to bolt to the frame. I think I have it figured out after lining them up to the frame but if anyone is out there that can take some pics of theirs it would be helpful. Want to avoid any issues. 20161105_134221.jpg

    The nut plate at the end of the slider inside the frame are a pain in the backside. Tape them to the wrench and then reach up inside the frame and then put in the bolts. I have a Harbor freight scissor lift cart that I used to hold up the sliders while I bolted them in.

    You wouldn't have some picks of the bolt locations would you? I think k I have them down but reference always helps.

    Got the sliders installed. The suggestion to tape the back plate to a wrench was the right idea!
