bought some sliders off ebay and the arrived today, after removing god knows how much mud from around all the nuts ont he sills, i got the sills off. just gone to insert the tubing into the body mount to discover that when the chassis was galvanised it has left a few lumps inside the tube. cant even get the tube an inch in.

what can i do to solve this problem.

cheers

Attack the tube with a big half-round file.

or buy a drill and run it down there. dont forget to paint or galv it before fitting. no point in getting a galv chasssis, then taking the galv off, is there?

Use plenty of grease when you assemble the sliders after you've cleaned the galv off .
