Hello everyone,

I am in the process of making sliders and need to find out what years of Discoveries have a brace on the back side of the sill, So far all of the discos I have built sliders for have not had this, but today I found a Disco that had it and it interferes with my current template, the disco that I noticed it on was a 1997 NAS disco.

Does anyone happen to know what years this “brace” was installed on?

The brace is spot welded to the back of the sill about 8” behind the front body mount and is a triangle piece of material, if anyone has a pic of this can you post it?

Thanks,

Dave Lucas

Thanks everyone,

So it looks like it is on a bunch of years, I guess I will have to change my template to accommodate for this little surprise.

:-(

At least I do not have to worry about it on yours Perry :-)
