Here’s my update after the Rubicon trail. I used the sliders A LOT! I was even coming down and using them to pivot the gladiator’s long butt through. The verdict is they did fairly well, they got scratched up and dented. However I do see where they did slightly go into the body. I know when it’s...

Arte I will vouch for the Artec skids just went through the Rubicon during the Jeepers Jamboree no damage and only a bolt got loose. Probably some of the best money I spent on my Gladiator and would do it again.

Owning both I would say after purchasing, it's a minimum of at least 5k to get it to be how it should come from the factory. LOL.

I haven’t really drove it all except from the shop, I went on a two week vacation. I will give an update after a few days. I did have the shop put them on since they were doing my tie rod and drag link.

I appreciate everybody’s input, I weighed my options and spoke with my local Offroad shop I trust. I ended up going with the steel LOD destroyer rock sliders. They are pretty high and tight to the body and gives my short wife a decent step lol it also hides the pinch seam well while mounting to...

I've been to the one at Hollister and the Rubicon. These are beginner friendly events with a lot of information. The Hollister one was way more beginner friendly and had more spotters and went over way more things. It was a good time. The Rubicon adventure academy, they tell you there will be...

I've heard stories about this but never seen pictures, this is exactly the reason I was looking into some different sliders. I was looking at the EVO manufacturing ones as well.

Also correct me if I'm wrong does the Rock Hard sliders attach the same way as the ace engineering sliders?

For sure, I don't want armor that attaches to the pinch seams, I just want armor that hides the pinch seem for aesthetic purposes as in my opinion easily seeing the pinch seam makes the Jeep look unfinished or like its missing something. That is also why I am worried about the ACE ones as they...

Prior to doing the Rubicon Trail, I'm looking for Rock sliders that do a few things,: 1. Give my Gladiator good clearance. 2. Hide the pinch seam 3. Can be used as a step for my shorter passengers. I'm currently on a 3.5" Gamechanger lift with 37" KO2s. I have the Ace Engineering Rock Rails in...

You’ll have fun they have places to play in the snow and long barn used to have ice skating, I’m not sure if they still have it. The chicken ranch casino also used to have a drive in so there’s all sorts of things to do up there

Its about an hour closer but you could head up towards the Stanilaus Forest, I used to live in Sonora and I would see people head up to Pinecrest and Long Barn.

I didn’t use any mount, I removed a couple of the bumper bolts that weren’t attached to anything and they fit in perfectly.

No issues whatsoever, the winch is the VR EVO 12k

How do you feel a full size truck would do out there? My buddy wants to take his Ram out with me and my Gladiator but I'm not sure which trails would fit that thing.

I would be down to go as well, I have weekends off, I would just need some notice to arrange childcare.

I will be out of town, or I would be in for a Wicked Joan Burger!

I've got a 37" BFG KO2 under mine. It fits, I believe I did let some air out of it to make it easier.
