Default TF rock sliders, need advice

So it turns out than the sliders are a little long. I can cut them in the front but I can also trim them where they mount up at the corners where the hit the lower door sill. Anyone else have this problem? Not one hole lines up. I expected this. I swear I buy more things to better the truck than its worth. Loving a Rover is not cheap!

Time to take out the measuring tape! How long are they exactly? Should be almost exactly 64 inches, that's what mine are.

Well then...there is your issue it would seem. I think the D1 ones are even shorter(according to Terrafirma's online catalog)

It's possible it's a redesign. What was the number on the box? TF809?
