Detours slyders come with left and right, so you have to make sure you get them set up correctly.

I had jacked it up to relieve some pressure before. After the KB 88, I didn't even need the breaker, just a 10 inch ratchet handle!

I had hit the front bolts on the rear suspension a couple weeks before with KB 88, but it wasn't going anywhere.

So I hit it again LIBERALLY, and went inside for 20 minutes to see how the Patriots were doing.

2 coats on the front one, 1 on the back. Ended up doing 4 coats on each.

Because the stiffener is not welded, the slider will droop below the pinch lip seam. I propped it up to install the hangers.

a 12" x 3/16" electricians drill bit and a piece of cardboard will make this go SO much faster!

Slider/stiffener reinstalled after prepping for welding, snugged up with C clamps, ready to install pinch lip hangers.

Attach the pinch lip hangers to the cross members... ( I forgot to do this on BOTH sides. This was the WORST part of the install. Having them ALL ready to go, and having to take them off to install the pinch lip hangers!)
