getting ready to pull my sliders off today in preparation for my rock hard sliders to show up Monday. I want to make sure I get the hard part done in advance, then get the bolts painted and greased.Good to know. Wrangler forum suggests that you loosen them first.. If you break one you contact Jeep and say you found that one fell off while "inspecting the welds." Apparently they can and will warranty if you fight with them. I may call my dealer and see what the cost is to install. If it is $100 may be worth it to not spend hours fighting over a warranty issue. If they charge me $100 and bust a bolt, that is on them. Quite vexed to have bought a vehicle known for aftermarket parts and a dedicated group that customizes and find out that a simple job may become a nightmare.

Was told that an induction bolt heater was a smart route to go as well, but I don't own one and really don't need one for the money they cost. I'll go the breaker bar route, try not to jerk or twist the bar while loosening, and go slowly. Will report back after I'm done.
