Ah, thanks TJ that makes perfect sense. I'll keep this in mind when I finally get my sliders. As far as wrapping the standard in something, is that for the same reason as putting a jacket or blanket on a winch cable when winching? So if it breaks it doesn't kill someone? Thanks again!
No, it's so as you drive off the jack, the standard doesn't hit against the side if your door and put a nice scratch / dent in it. It has nothing to do with people safety.
