Default Rocky Road Rock Sliders

Has anybody purchased the Rocky Road Rock Sliders? If so are they comparable to the Mopar? Are they easy to install? Do they fit well?

Default RRO super sliders with diamond plate covers

I have the RRO super sliders. Absolutely love them; they're worth their weight in gold. They saved my door panels more times than I can remember. I recommend going with the super sliders over the rock sliders, especially if you are using a roof rack; the step is invaluable. I also have the diamond plate covers which add style, but more importantly keep most of the mud, snow, sand, etc. off your doors. The installation was very easy and the results are absolutely solid. I've even jacked up my KL off of them.

The MOPAR sliders are way too expensive for what you get. There's an excellent YouTube video on the MOPAR installation that is very helpful in removing the OEM plastic body trim. Some of the installation techniques will also apply to the RRO installation.

Thanks for the response and photo, helps to see it.

I like what you've done with your KL. What lift did you use?

Finally got them on. The install was a bit of a challenge, drilling through the pinch seam was difficult.

I really like the look of these KLs with the rock sliders--the white and black looks good. Snowhawk, did you paint your rims? If so, with what? Thanks

Nope, they came that way (Black satin), minus the rock scrapes.

Looking good.
White lifted TH's with rock rails seems to be the trend.
Here's mine in my driveway:
