Default RE: sims cable slide

I was having a little fletching contact issue on my Liberty with the stock slide so I swapped the Sims slide off of another bow. It does pull the cables over out of the way, but I think it may be a little too far as pointed out by JeffB and others. With the Sims slide, the cable seemed to almost be coming off of the side of the idler wheel. I'm no expert, but even I could tell that didn't look too good.

Jeff sent me a Hicks slide to try. It pulls the cables over further than the stock slide but not quite as far as the Sims. And the cable exiting the idler looks more like I would expect it to. It's pulled the cables over enough to get all the clearence I need, even with a straight fletched 4" feather on a fat 2413 shaft. You can pick up a Hicks slide at LancasterArchery.com for around $6.
