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.

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.
