Short answer: our Tube Rock Sliders fit the 2007–2017 Jeep Wrangler JK Unlimited 4-door only. They are 3/16" steel with a black textured powder coat and work as both rocker armor and a step. They are not a bolt-on: drilling is required, and we recommend a professional install.

Install tips

  1. Have an off-road shop do it if you can. Drilling is needed to mount the sliders securely.
  2. Remove the factory steps or trim from the rocker area.
  3. Hold each slider in place with a helper and mark the holes.
  4. Drill, then paint the bare metal edges to stop rust.
  5. Bolt the sliders on and tighten all hardware.
  6. Check the bolts again after your first trail run.

FAQ

Will these fit a 2-door JK?

No. They are made for the JK Unlimited 4-door only. The 2-door has a shorter rocker, so these sliders will not fit it. Call us if you need a 2-door option.

Do I have to drill?

Yes. These are not a bolt-on kit. Drilling is required so the sliders are mounted strongly enough to take hits. We recommend having an off-road shop install them.

Can I stand on them?

Yes. They are built to work as a step, which helps when getting into a lifted Jeep. The textured powder coat gives your boots some grip, even when it is muddy.

Do they fit the JL?

No. They are listed for the JK Unlimited body, built from 2007 to 2017. The JL has a different body and frame, so these sliders will not fit it.
