Crafted to shield the side and underside of your Step Sliders, these skid plates provide essential defense against harsh trail obstacles and aggressive off-road conditions.

Whether you’re navigating rocky trails or rugged backcountry paths, the Rock Slide Engineering skid plates help preserve your vehicle’s integrity and keep your steps operational.

Construction & Design:

The skid plates are fabricated from heavy-duty 3/16” steel, providing a robust barrier against rocks, debris, and trail hazards. The raw steel is acid-etched before receiving a textured black powder coat, which enhances adhesion and delivers a durable, corrosion-resistant finish that stands up to the elements and off-road abuse. The design perfectly contours to the Rock Slide Engineering Step Sliders, fitting like a phone case to ensure comprehensive coverage without compromising step usability.

Every detail, from the precise cutout for the step to the mounting points that align with existing brackets, reflects thoughtful engineering aimed at maximizing protection while maintaining ease of installation and everyday functionality.

Installation & Fitment:

Installation is straightforward and can typically be completed in approximately 30 minutes. The skid plates attach directly to the existing Step Slider brackets using the original hardware, eliminating the need for drilling or modifications. This bolt-on design ensures a secure fit and allows for easy removal if necessary. The product is specifically designed to fit Jeep Wrangler JK 4 Door models produced between 2007 and 2018, guaranteeing compatibility and optimal protection.
