Steps with Rubi Rock Rails

[JKLivin833]

I had ACE Sliders on my JK Rubi with my rock rails. The ACE sliders doubled as steps. Are there any other options for the Gladiator that work with the Rubi Rock Rails?

thanks.

I know you know Ace from JK. Here's what they look like on a JTR

they look good but not 650 good. they may be my only option.

I'm interested too. The 650 is steep.

I was looking at these for steps. They also have powder coated ones in various colors. Would be curious on anyone's experience.

Just an update:

the first set of sliders I received were blemished pretty badly. ACE was kind enough to send new ones and a label for the old ones.
The new ones were blemished as well, but. It as badly. After 3 days of having them on my friend points out that the front end of the drivers side is higher than the back.

The passenger side sits flush all of the way down the side of the truck in terms of its distance from the top of the Ace Slider to the bottom of the factory MOPAR Rock Rail. The drivers side does not. It sit appropriately in back and mostly correct in front, however in the middle section the 2 extensions from the body of the ace slider to the step actually touch the rock rail. There is no gap. Is this normal, meaning is it just an acceptable manufacturing variance, or is something out of line? We’ve readjusted multiple times and get the same result. I’ll accept all help.
Thanks.

See the above post. Did you have any fitment issues?

 

[Buzzlb]

No. Didn’t have to use heat, but I did have to adjust the left side to match the right. Advice; put both on, get them to match then tighten/ torque down.....

What do you mean? Sorry, I’m just lost. I’ve adjusted multiple times and tightened to torque specs. I’m still getting a bad fitment. The passenger side Rubi rail never makes contact with the ace slider.
The drivers side doesn’t make contact at the rear and barely if any at the front, but contacts the Rubi rail for the entirety of the middle.
Nick at @ACE Engineering is very responsive and nice, however, I just can’t get a correct fitment here. I never had this issue on the ones on my JK.

I’ll take a look and get back to you....

Did you get it worked out? I just got the ruby rock rails but was going to add the ace sliders because I married a midget. Well, a really short woman anyway.

I didn’t. They’re still not fitting correctly on one side. I think I may have gotten a slightly deformed or misaligned rail. Nick at Ace has been great with communication, so I believe they’ll try and work it out. Rails look good if you have the rails, and I don’t know another set that will pair with the rubi rails.

I just got mine installed and they fit and look great. I'm very happy with them.
