Installed some Rock Hard 4x4 RHX sliders. These things are tough! Replaced the stock chrome tube steps. Why did Jeep put chrome steps on a Mojave?

I’ve never seen chrome on a stock gladiator. Did you buy it new?

Yep. Brand New. These were a $900 option. I asked the dealer if they could be removed, but obviously they couldn't. I can't believe they even put them on there. I would have much rather have had the Rubicon rails.

Sounds like a on site dealer add on. I dont think Jeep offers chrome from the factory. Dealers put dumb stuff on vehicles.

I was about the ask the same question. At least they didn't do the diamond plate right angle ill-fitting dangle-angle running boards, they at least kept it in the 2000's.

I learned something new today. Thanks. But I agree. That’s a weird option for a Jeep with black and color.

Any pictures of them for my curiosity?

It's a line item on the window sticker. $895

That’s a new one for me, but clearly factory. I’m guessing it was a special order where the buyer bailed.

Yesterday I installed hood struts, so no more fooling with that hood prop, or the prop being in the way when working in the engine bay.

no chrome steps on my Mojave. And I don’t think I’ve ever seen that before. Probably a dealer installed option.
