Construction & Design:

Rock Slide Engineering builds the Step Slider with premium materials and precision engineering to withstand harsh off-road conditions while maintaining a refined appearance. The main structure is fabricated from heavy-duty 10-gauge steel, providing robust protection for your Jeep’s rocker panels against rocks and trail debris. The raw steel undergoes acid etching before receiving a durable textured black powder coat, ensuring long-lasting corrosion resistance and a tough finish that complements your Jeep’s rugged style.

Internally, the step slider features stainless steel and aluminum components to prevent rust and extend the lifespan of the moving parts. The elimination of gas struts in favor of advanced smart motor technology improves reliability and consistent operation, even in cold or harsh weather conditions.
