Barricade Rock Sliders Review

Jeep Armor Protection: A Must-Have Upgrade

Pounding washers into the sliders

One of the toughest decisions as a Jeep owner is choosing the right modifications for your rig. For me, this was especially challenging as a new Jeeper, diving headfirst into the world of off-roading and vehicle protection.

When I started researching rock sliders and armor, I wasn’t sure which option would be best. That’s when Extreme Terrain reached out and offered me the opportunity to review their Barricade Rock Sliders—an unexpected and exciting chance to enhance my Jeep's protection.

Easy DIY Installation

The installation process was straightforward, exactly what I wanted as a beginner. With durable hardware and a solid design, these sliders bolted right on with ease. Not only are they tough and reliable, but they also double as a step, making it easier to get in and out of my Jeep. Plus, they look amazing and complement my build perfectly!

Off-Road Durability: Tested & Approved

Since installing these sliders, I've put them to the test on rugged trails. They’ve endured countless rock scrapes and obstacles and continue to hold strong. I’ve reached the point where I love hearing them slide across the rocks—because I know they’re doing their job!

I have come down hard on rocks, hitting with full force, and while they have dented from impact, they’ve done their job protecting my Jeep’s body. I’ve scraped them over rocks more times than I can count, and each time, they take the hit instead of my Jeep. If you plan to wheel hard, you’ll want to perform a little maintenance—after scraping over rocks, it’s a good idea to touch up any exposed metal with rust-resistant paint to prevent corrosion and keep them looking great.

Rock Slider FAQ's

What are rock sliders, and why are they important for my Jeep?

Rock sliders are sturdy metal bars mounted along the sides of your Jeep's body to protect it from rocks, debris, and other off-road hazards. They're crucial for preventing damage to your vehicle's rocker panels and undercarriage during challenging terrain.

How do rock sliders differ from running boards or side steps?

While running boards and side steps offer easier access to your Jeep, rock sliders are designed for off-road protection. They're built to withstand impacts and scrapes from rocks and obstacles, doubling as a step but with heavy-duty construction that can handle rugged terrain.  

Do I need professional installation for rock sliders?

Most rock sliders are designed for DIY installation, typically bolting directly onto existing mounting points on your Jeep's frame. However, if you're unsure or have a complex setup, professional installation may be recommended to ensure proper fitment and durability.

What materials are rock sliders made from, and which is best?

Rock sliders are commonly made from materials like steel or aluminum. Steel offers superior strength and durability against impacts but can be heavier, affecting your Jeep's weight and fuel efficiency. Aluminum is lighter but sacrifices some toughness. Choose based on your off-roading needs and vehicle specifications.

Will rock sliders affect my Jeep's ground clearance?

Rock sliders are designed to fit snugly along the Jeep's body without significantly impacting ground clearance. However, it's essential to check product specifications and reviews to ensure they're compatible with your specific Jeep model and lift kit.
