The high statistics that will be collected during the LHC Run-II (and beyond)open the path to precision measurements at the TeV scale, where the PDFs willplay a crucial role in BSM searches. In the di-lepton final state accuratemeasurements of the Forward-Backward Asymmetry (AFB) will be available,particularly in the invariant mass region around the Z peak. We show that thisobservable displays a statistical error which is competitive with that assignedto the existing PDF sets and which will rapidly become smaller than the latteras the integrated luminosity grows, thereby offering a means of constrainingthe (anti)quark PDFs over a sizeable $(x,Q^2)$ range. In the context of SUSYsearches we consider the effects of employing threshold-improved PDFs in aconsistent calculation at NLO+NLL of slepton pair production cross sections.The calculations featuring a consistent resummation procedure both at PDF andpartonic matrix element level are accompanied by PDF and scale uncertainties,and they provide a reliable and updated theoretical estimation for experimentaldata analyses at the LHC Run-II.
