I like these. Think I’m going to pick up a pair.Check out Rockhard, you order their patriot sliders angled down.

Just bought some brand new ones for 475 shipped.Since our doors are aluminum, I don't want careless people to open their car doors into them, or let shopping carts loose into them. I got the Rock Hard angled up for more protection. My Recon was saved from a door dent by the rock rail. You can probably negotiate away the shipping cost when ordering direct, or get through Northridge.
Just following up on this, it's been a few years now - got pics, and how's your wife like em? I'm looking for sliders/steps for my 5'3 asian wife... lolOn Wednesday I am installing ACE Rock Sliders on my JLUR, they even allow me to keep my stock Rubi rock rails.
My 4'11" wife really wants them as a step, especially since I put 35s on.
I will post up pics after it is done.
Go with the OEM Mopar Performance Rock Rail / Step. You can add them to your order and be good to go. My wife is 5'2 and has no complaints. However, if you plan to lift go after market. The OEM rails don't stick out very far and aren't really a step.We are looking at buying JLUR Rubicon in the next 3-6 months but ONE of the requirements is steps for the wife! The wheeling I do at Uhwarrie etc I am not too worried about them but in theory I would love to find a set I could remove in say 15-20 minutes and "leave" the rock rails on under them all the time?
Does such a thing exist? I have to imagine they use the same mounting locations so not sure if a longer bolt could be used, etc? Any thoughts are appreciated!

I wanted protection for the body, but also a dedicated step to help my wife climb up and down. The LOD Destroyers filled that role. The Jeep is lifted nearly 4" over stock and on 40's. She is 4'10.75", and yes, she will hit me if I leave out that .75". She can walk clear under the side view mirror and watching her climb doesn't seem to be losing its entertainment value. It's like watching vehicular yoga.Just following up on this, it's been a few years now - got pics, and how's your wife like em? I'm looking for sliders/steps for my 5'3 asian wife... lol
