I just ruined my extended slider arm because I'm a dumb ass. Looking for the extended slider to clear the rear wheel. I put the oem short one on temporarily but the door only opens 3 inches
hahaha

If you can come up with two stock ones you will only need one weld joint, and have identical materials and profiles to work with.
