- Bought a new 05 Vector which I still have
24K miles
On my 14 Vector LTX (136") I took the old slides off via the "reverse the track" method. Now it would be difficult to get good measurement.
Does anybody know exactly how long the slides should measure (in inches or I can convert from metric) on a 136" suspension?

Put them on cut them off at the end of the rail. Ya I know you don't have the skid out! But why can't you make them the same length as the ones you took off?

If you lube them up well enough I've put them on all the way, marked the end of the rail, then tapped them back out just far enough to cut them off. No damage to slide as you can just about pull them back off with vice grips. Found a fine wood saw works best for cutting and I do cut them at an angle.
