    I believe the straight links are fine. Only the bent links were subject to contacting the sliders.

    as far as welding to the frame I have heard arguments for and against it. Mine are welded on, have large mounting area that spreads the load and are gusseted...I have had no problems since mounting them over 2 years ago and they have been pounded on a time or 2 or 3 or 4...

    Mine were welded, then cut off and frabricated to be removable. Welding plate remained and the attachment occurs with the tube from the slider sliding over the solid tube on the welded plate. It all attaches with bolts and lock washers. Two attachments for each side. It's sweet because I can remove them when not needed (gets your pants dirty when you get out if you're not careful) and put them on when I take it out for some fun.

    Can post pics if anyone is interested...
