Sean,
I'll take them, but would like to talk to you first. I seem to remember something with "fit and length" tied to Year and 109-model. Mine being a '65 exMoD may have issues.
Maybe we could get together this weekend?

Well, it looks like they don't fit an Ex-MOD so here they are again!
1966 109 SW The Short Bus
The 109 5 door and early 109 three door / pickups have a more vertical shape at the front edge of the rear wheel arch compared to the later three door / pickup tubs. This results in the sills (and sliders) being about three inches shorter on the later trucks.
I have two sets of Ike's sliders that I need to modify to the shorter length, but the mounts are the same on a Marsland three door chassis and a NOS ex-MOD chassis.

Bob,
Then it is highly likely that a set of your "short" sliders will fit my 109, and Sean's "long" sliders would work for one of your 109's - all without any modification.
The length on my 109, from wheel well to wheel well, along the seam between the body and existing sills, is 73-inches.

Nope, that ain't gonna work.... Both of our 109s have the 73" short sill, and our Ike sliders are 75 1/2" long. Ike fabbed these up on a 109 pickup he had in the shop, neither of us realizing there were two different lengths. I'm just going to cut a 3" wide step shaped section out of the aft end and weld them up. It would be an easier job if the slider didn't have the jack / recovery holes..... I'll just spray the welds with cold galvy until I have enough stuff for another galvanizing run.
