My sliders arrived. Packaging looked good, overall condition is good. Just a few corners on the inside need to be touched up to prevent rust.
@lodoffroad what touch paint do you suggest?

Awesome, can't wait to see the installed pics! Truck bed liner would be a good choice for touch up! I'll forward these pictures on to our shipping department and make sure we get extra protection in these areas. Looking forward to your review!

Finally got them installed. Everything went easy. I added black vinyl tape to the pinch seams. LoD has some good customer service as well, very responsive and easy to work with.

Looks great, what vinyl tape did you use. Assuming it is not electrical tape?Finally got them installed. Everything went easy. I added black vinyl tape to the pinch seams. LoD has some good customer service as well, very responsive and easy to work with.

Not electrical tape, got this 3M stuff off of amazon, 2" wide I just trimmed the excess with a razor. http://a.co/d/byKfWGP
I plan to try and tape over the exposed pinch bolt to see if that cleans it up a little more.

Got mine installed as well. Like x7tristian, I had two corners that needed to have the finish touched up. Followed lodoffroad`s suggestion for touching them up with bed liner. Other than that the finish was great. The fit of the sliders was spot on. Very simple and easy to install. Instructions are very clear and easy to interpret. Had an extra set of hands and it only took about 50 minutes to remove the factory rails and bolt up the new LOD`s. I`d like to make a minor suggestion to LOD for future reference. One is to increase the length of the two 1/2-13 bolts, if they were a 1/2"-3/4" longer to give better engagement with the flagged nut that would be great.

2 things for @lodoffroad
Do these hang any lower than the signature series?
Is there a reason you don't include convex style washers to protect the bolt heads going through the bottom of the frame? Sort of like what metalcloak does with their skid plates.

The problem with those washers, is if they get damaged in the right way, you won't be able to remove the bolt. We leave that choice/risk up to the consumer. You should be sliding on the slider anyway, and not the frame, as then you'll have other things to worry about
The Destroyer step actually sits a little higher than the Signature series.

Installed these today, they look awesome! The build quality is second to none thank you for such great product @lodoffroad Arrived with a few chips in the paint but the Rustoleum satin black matches perfect. Now I just have to get used to using a step to get in and out my head nearly hits the top of the garage haha.
