I wonder if it is the long arm kit not the slider
I wonder if it is the long arm kit that is the issue and not the sliders. I have noticed several jeeps with the EVO long arm kit and they have LOD rock sliders or EVO rock sliders. I wonder if the issue is more the RE Long Arm kit.
Does anyone have a set of Sliders and RE Long Arm kit? Which sliders did they go with?

Too bad Shrockworks takes so long. Love mine and they have mounts in the middle too. I have used a high lift to jack from the rails multiple times and have also come down on rocks pretty good with nothing more than powdercoat marks

Food for thought
It's been my experiance with LOD that they will make custom mods to make there product fit your needs. I have a rock crawler front W/ stinger that they chopped the anvel looking ends off & added some pad eyes for my tow bar. There was no extra charge. I also have a set of rock sliders. My sliders have no special Mods, but looking at them it appeares it would not be a big deal to relocate the mounts.

If you call up EVO and tell 'em what lift you have they may be able to send you a set of sliders with the mounts adjusted for that lift. I'll go outside today when I can and take pictures of the rear mounts on my EVO sliders. They work with my Fabtech kit no issues.

got an email back from LoD :
what i sent:
Hi thanks in advance for your help
i was wondering if your rock sliders are compatible on both a 2 door jeep jk and a 4 door jeep jk that both have the rubicon express 4.5 long arm lift kit installed. if not, is modifying them an option, are there additional costs for that?
LoD response:
They will not work with the RE Long arm kit. The mount for the rear arm gets in the way of our 3rd mount on the sliders. We have had people modify them to fit their specific long arms before but we do not modify them. This is becasue every long arm manufacture makes their kit and its impossible to make the sliders fit them all. Let us know if you have any other questions.
