GOAT Slider removal for SC to work on

[UnsungZero_OldTimeAdMan]

I don't think I have a photo of the modified ones, but this is the problem area from the original prototype version (It's rusty because it was only rattle can painted for photos, and we left it on for some usability testing afterwards) That bracket will be scalloped out if you weren't in the original batch.

I have one of the modified ones. And recalling from memory, the vertical gusset nearest the adapter locating hole was either omitted or much shorter. Someone might have posted a pic in one of those old threads when the issue first surfaced. I just don't have link handy.

How do you know if you have one of the first batch? I ordered my R1S GOAT sliders 4/25/2024. Currently at service center and they need to inspect/replace air suspension. Called me to get permission to remove only my sliders for $250. Perhaps they just automatically called without checking first if they will fit with the lift, or maybe I have an early version?

I bought mine in November of '24, came modified. Once the factory trims are off, it shouldn't take SC a full hour to remove them. It's undoing 4 (newer) or 5 (older versions) 16 mm hex head bolts each side. 15-30 minutes at the most instead of the $250 for one full hour of labor.
