JL JCR rock sliders

[Gus]

Hi all.
What are your thought on those new JLU sliders.
I like them but I don’t like the gap between the sliders and the body.

Wow, just bolt off, bolt on. No cutting, no drilling. Looks a lot easier to do it on the JL than on the JK. 20 minute job!

I really like those, and it appears the gap is minimal? I wish they would have shown the sliders installed in detail toward the end of the video to give a really good view point. But, from what I could see, they look really nice.

It's 2018 and I still don't understand why people make sliders & steps with the pinch seam exposed

Because it makes it easier to wash mud, snow, and ice from between the slider and the body. Plus it traps a lot less moisture this way. The pinch seam disappears if you paint it black before you install the sliders

Love the sliders. Also looked at your rear bumper/tire carriers that were marked as jl. In the photos the bumper is shown on the jk ?
Does this mean the bumpers are the same or have they been redesigned to fit the new rear end?

The last thing I'm worried about on a Wrangler is how easy it is to wash my rock sliders and trapping MOISTURE :cwl:
c'mon man

All of the product is being redesigned for the JL. Those products are up for placeholders at this point... anything you see in the JL categories with an add to cart link is good to go though.

We are from the midwest where it matters quite a bit.

Sliders look good and yeah it would be nice if that gap was a little narrower (from 1/2" to 1/4"). On the plus side the gap prevents water from sitting on the sliders.

How much weight can these sliders handle as apposition to sliders that that are directly bolted to the frame? I’m worried about bending up tha pinch seam.

They can handle a ton. We use the same mounting on our JK Classic sliders and have abused them mercilessly with no tub damage.

Hey JCR,

Fantastic looking product! A couple of questions...

1) Has anyone reported any squeaking from these sliders like that which has been detailed with the ACE sliders of similar design?

2) Shipping weight is listed on your site as 84 lbs, so I'm assuming they each weigh ~40 lbs?

Thanks!

1) Our sliders mount to the pinch seam of the tub AND the body mounts, it's a stronger solution and we don't have any reported squeaking issues since everything is more solidly mounted.
2) Around 40 lbs a side, yes.
