I recently picked up a 2025 Jeep Wrangler Sport. I'm going to pick up a set of used rock sliders that fit a JL, but the guy doesn't have the hardware (he reused for his new running boards). Does anyone know the proper size for the bolts to mount the slides to the Jeep?

M8 1.25 x 30 bolts for rocker panel bolts
M6 1.0 x 24 with M6 nuts for pinch weld seams. Count how many you need and go from there, I don’t know how many holes are under the 2 door. I am not 100% on the length of the pinch weld bolts, they’re fairly short, less than an inch I’d imagine.

Thanks for the response! I picked up some rock rails today and got the hardware ahead of time. All the hardware fit perfect!

73 SS, built 355 with heads, cam, etc. It puts down 410 horsepower for now. I have paint and bodywork left, drop spindles and coil overs, stainless headers, headliner, and a 700r4 and I’ll be pretty much done.

Very nice! Looks good! Old cars are so much fun and they’re so easy to work on. Very simple compared to modern cars.

Are those Edelbrock heads on there? I just picked up a new set of Edelbrock heads for my 383 stroker. The Etec 200 heads. They’re like a vortec style head but with bigger runners, bigger valves, and can handle higher lift cams.
