JL 2dr side steps

[jerwhite]

I have the LOD Destroyers on my 2-door. I did drill the extra holes because I wanted the extra strength but it was pretty easy. I have bounced these off rocks and they have held up so far. They provide a nice step for getting in and out.

I have Greenlane's, too. They replaced some rock rusters from a now defunct company (good riddance). They work well in the snow and ice, too. Just keep in mind they're a step and not meant to be bashed or slid against things on trails. They're heavy duty aluminum, but that will never be sliders.

Thanks David, I need them more for a step for my wife.

After two JLURs (2018 Rubicon and 2024 Rubicon 392), I am going back to a 2dr (had a YJ), I have a 2026 Rubicon 2dr with the XR package on order, being built the week of April 27th. My wife is vertically challenged so I need to add side steps to my new Jeep and looking for suggestions/recommendations from the Forum 2dr. members. I had GOAT step sliders on the 392 and Mopar tube style on the 2018. I am not concerned with removing the rock rails. If there is already thread about this, please direct me to it as I did find one for 2 doors. Thanks!!

I also have the LOD and I think they are one of the best "but the install is a 2 banana - not completely simple "if" you have skid plates. You have to drill some holes and remove the skid plates and then reinstall them. I have Metal Cloak Skids (they are great). The LOD have great traction with big holes for mud snow or sand. My wife loves them. ... they also took about 3 months to get them after ordering them. So ask about delivery if you do order them.

Thanks for your feedback. I check with LOD customer service, I was given 3-4 weeks. They look great!!

I love that top! I wish they offered it in tan.

I ordered a set of these from LOD for my 2025 2dr Willys:

https://lodoffroad.com/products/2018-jl-destroyer-series-2-door-rock-sliders/JRS1802

I should have them by the end of the month (4-6 week for build and powder coat). Once I get them mounted up I'll post some pics.

Checking to see if anyone has received any items from LOD recently?
I still haven't received my sliders which I ordered March 6th.

I emailed LOD customer support around mid April and was told they were just waiting for 1 part to come back from powdercoat and I was first on the list for shipping.

I called the first week of May and was told my order just went to production and would go to powdercoat in 2-3 weeks. She had no idea how I went from "first in line to ship" to not even built yet.

Just called them this morning and was told "unsure where my order was in production queue" but she'll check and call me back.

Hopefully they'll be worth the wait...my patience has limits, especially since I can't seem to get a straight answer.

Anyone else having issues with LOD?

 

[FLTrailRider]

I had issues when I order them and the "waiting to come back from power coating" .. well was not so truthful.

You need to phone them and get a date. OR better if you order through some company have them call for you and then eMail you the date and status. (so it's in writing)

The run "lines" so you need to find out when they run the 2 door line.

March is beyond excessive.

I positioned my Metal Cloak flip step in the downward position, my wife must be shorter than yours Doc.

I'm also using the Mopar Rock Sliders on my 23 Wrangler Rubi 2 Dr. My. Wrangler has a 3 1/2" to 4" Lift so my wife has to step up some in order to get in.

I'm still using the Jeep Rubicon slider dealios, but use a similar folding step stool for my wife. Currently installing 2.5" lift, so going to need a taller stool/step ladder or something. Need/want some better sliders that will handle hard abuse on rocks, still searching/researching for that.

See post 16 in this thread. Then you won't need to carry a step stool for your wife.
