Help with slider leg attachment. '95 4runner.

Sliders are still off the '95 4Runner. I have the rear two legs attached to both. I need some help figuring out what angle to cut the front leg so the scab plate sits on the frame where the frame starts to angle in. I've tried clamping them on, but couldnt get an accurate angle. I've searched and have came up empty handed. I've seen pictures, but they dont help. Just an estimated angle would be great, then I can go from there.
Wabbit?
AOR?
4XInno?
Anyone?
Thanks guys!

Use a paper towel tube for test fit.

I recall using something between 8 and 10 degrees. Kind of depends where on the frame you are connecting to.
