Are you willing to ship them to Jasper Ga? If so what would be your price? I can pay for shipping as long as the price/shipping is decent together.
I can't even picture how to ship these things.
They are HEAVY, guessing from memory 75 lbs and over 6 feet long?

If the Ace sliders can mount under the Rubi rock rails, anyone see a reason why they wouldn't mount under the Overland side steps?

only issue right now is the road right there is filled with squad cars.
It's an entrance to a COVID-19 test site.

ACE sliders finally arrived today, ordered 28Dec.
I've been eager to get these, so the cold rain wasn't going to stop me this evening.
No problems removing front bolts. No problems with center bolts. Right rear was fussy, but a few in-out cycles and a breaker bar completed the job.
On install, the left center bolt wouldn't grab anything. All other bolts installed and torqued fine.

How is the nut attached? Welded or floating? Accessible from the cab?

Thanks
@Sixt7gt350 - How did you get the center bolt attached?

I ordered the MOPAR side steps. I don't need rock rails here in GA, I only encounter mud and gravel. The side steps should help deflect that from the sides of the truck. Also my wife and daughter are petite and need a step. A rock rail or slider would have served that function as well but not done much for protection from mud and gravel. Unfortunately the MOPAR side steps are on back order until.....I don't know when.

That is what I ended up with, add some mud flaps and it really cuts out the mud sling down the side. I'm not doing hard off roading, more muddy country road and it really keeps the truck looking good.

I'm looking to add side steps and mud flaps. Are the MOPAR steps the same as the overland ones referenced above? Did you use MOPAR mud flaps? I'm trying to figure out what front mud flaps fit with Max Tow Package, if that makes a difference. My wife is on me to get side steps added because she can't get in and out easily.

I ordered mine from the factory with the running boards, they tell you that they need to be removed for off roading, I then ordered, from Mopar, the mud flaps and they match up with the running board and give a pretty sealed up blockage of mud.

Oh man! I got to backseat in an F-18 when I was stationed in Lemoore back in the 90s. I threw up. lol. The second we got up and tapered off, the pilot says, "you ready!?!" and as I began to mumble an answer, he puts us in the downward and to the side corkscrew. I think I lost ten pounds of water weight that day from vomiting. This is why you don't strap the Yeoman into the shiny winged-rocket thingy.

Didnt they teach you to keep your eyes on the horizon? As soon as you take your eyes off, mask off and puke bag on!

I would love to buy the back rock rails off of you if you decide to get rid of those. The ones under the truck bed. Im in north ga and willing to drive a decent distance to meet up. (If you are interested in selling them.)

If you dont have a Rubi then you will have to cut the bumper to make them fit.....
