Sim Cockpit Seat Slider Install Guide - Essential Tips and Tricks

Learn how to install a seat slider on your aluminium profile sim cockpit for easy, tool-free seating position adjustments. This step-by-step guide covers everything from mounting the slider rails to your 80/20 extrusion frame, aligning the seat brackets, and securing everything for a solid, rattle-free result. We used the Trak Racer TR160 Cockpit for this video, but any of the Trak Racer Cockpits like the TR120, TR80S or TR40, or even the TR8 Pro and TRX will be the same. Likewise for any other brand of cockpit like NLR , Sabelt , Advanced Sim Racing or SimLab. Whether you're building a budget DIY sim rig or upgrading an existing setup, a proper seat slider makes it simple to share your cockpit between multiple drivers — no more loosening bolts every time someone new jumps in. Installing them though is frustrating. This guide takes the pain out of seat slider installation. We hope it helps!
