theonlyski 8 #1 August 5, 2011 (Yes, I emailed the MFGR about this already 2 weeks ago, with no reply other than "we got the email and forwarded it to the service department" last week (after emailing them again) ) I remember the Safire2 169 I demo'ed had a much bigger slider than the one I bought (new, off the shelf from Icarus). My canopy seems to open a bit more abruptly than the demo. Anyone out there got the nice soft/slow opening Safire2 169 that can measure the slider for me?"I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scrumpot 1 #2 August 5, 2011 Check with MEL ("Masterrigger1" on here). He will have all the OEM spec's right on-hand for most OEM systems, as well as can best guide you as to thoroughly vetted mods (of which perhaps either a somewhat larger than OEM, or even "domed" slider option) - whichever, that might be most preferable to directly best suit your needs.coitus non circum - Moab Stone Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
