I purchased the Turn Off-Road Rock Crawl sliders for my JT Rubicon. I had seen Turn Off-Road parts advertised for Broncos and other vehicles. I was searching for frame mounted bolted sliders and Turn Off-Road popped up selling Jeep parts. I watched their installation video and they looked like solid mounts so I ordered a pair of their sliders. I was lucky and received them in 2-days. The packing was very good.
There are no written instructions. You need to watch their video but it leaves out a bunch of information. They show the rock slider already put together but it was easier to screw the bottom bolt in on the hangers alone, then slide the rock slider into the brackets, tight the bottom bolts and mark the center of the holes to be drilled, then take everything off and drill the holes. I ended up drilling 2 sizes of pilot holes before I used the bit provided with the sliders. It was nearly impossible to cut the threads with the provided self tapping bolts. I ended up using a standard drill with an 8” extension and you can get enough leverage to install and remove the bolts. What I found is the brackets only fit in one spot on the sliders. Make sure to slowly torque the bolts to 15 ft-lbs (180 in-lbs).
The first day I used them at Sand Hollow State Park. My front tire was on the edge of a rock and slipped. The hardest impact I’ve taken on my JT. I was sure the bolts had sheared off and my rocker panel was destroyed. When I got a chance to check it out there were no sheared bolts, my rocker panel was saved, and the rock slider bent in about 3/4” where it hit the rock. Very minor damage to the slider and it did its job as advertised.
I’m very pleased with Turn Off-Road rock sliders. Now I’m very interested in their rear bumper and rear rocker guard.
