Gladiator Rubicon AKA 'Sky Walker'
It’s been some time since I’ve added to my Sky Walker build, will have to post all that’s been done since 4/2019.

Adam from GOAT Fabrication has designed a bunch of products for the Bronco, Rivian, JL and now the JT! He was the previous and original owner of ACE who had amazing products, a few I still showcase on my build that includes a custom reinforced bumper to flat tow the jeep.

But I’m replacing the sliders from ACE (that saved my ass a few times) and he is marking up the sliders prototype for the JT today. Can’t wait to get them on and hit the trails. They will have few options and he sent pictures over as the work has started so I wanted to share!

The first three are the rock sliders with the top plate.

Second three are sliders without.

Final pics are the step sliders that are flat with the top plate.

Improvements over the original ones: improved strength, top plate option and a real Lifetime Warranty (not the BS ones so many offer until there is a problem). I’m going with the rock sliders with a top plate. My previous ones could be tricky in wet weather getting in and out. So that plate is a welcome option for me. Link below:

Do they mount just below the factory sliders?

Depends who you ask
Very interested in these but I've emailed a couple of times to ask about JT rocksliders and they never bothered with a reply.

I see they have a message page on the site to submit requests, but here is the phone number too: 1-586-930-8034. I know they've been slammed with the products and sales he has been posting on existing products.

Guessing over 1k, pass
I get it, depends on what you're looking for. Had a few products I've gone with in the past, they rust out or don't hold up, especially here with Michigan weather and some of the wheeling. But have to say, his previous version held up and saved damage to the truck a few times. Not just vertical impacts for drop offs or slide overs but also horizontal impacts when the truck kicked right on a climb and thought we damaged the doors. The sliders did not even bend and held their form. So for durability and protection plus a lifetime warranty, you won't have that with the cheaper versions. And I understand. Thanks for leaving a comment.

Plus the phone number, I found this email also: [email protected]
My deepest apologies to Adam and all at GOAT I said there was no reply to my inquiry but I of course did not go through my spam folder. If I had I would have seen the prompt reply. Am eagerly awaiting the release next week.

Yes works with and without factory rubi rails, mounts to frame bracket for the body mounts.
Are they all bolt on or is weld on available as well?

Oh well, just looked at the website. So much for reasonable. LOL. Still, I am sure they will be a great product. Just not for me.
