There have been some issues, noted on the interwebs.
Call Erik at Lucky8 he will take care of it.

The sliders were originally designed for the LR3. With the stack up of tolerances, some have issues fitting perfectly to the LR4.
On the flip side I bought a used set of Voyagers, and still had to widen one of the holes (just one), and they were already fitted to an LR4 (presumable without issues). It happens...

That is strange. What hole did you have to widen? the very front bolt on the underside of the sill perhaps? (I never installed the bolt there because you had to drill into the plastic to make room for it. However with the T44 sliders, you have to cut the whole bottom off that plastic trim anyway, ha!)

The second to front hole on the passenger side.
I don't think it was a manufacturing issue, but merely a stack up of tolerances. I only opened the hole by a few mm anyway.
It probably would have fit, but didn't like the stress it was putting on the bolt when i was tightening it.

Thanks...I'll call Erik. I've had a bit of trouble with my orders from Lucky8, however, they've been corrected each time which is pretty good in my book.
