Rock sliders act as a shield between your 4x4’s vulnerable lower panels and rocks or road debris encountered during backcountry travel. When driving off road, your truck’s exposed lower panels are highly susceptible to damage from road debris and obstacles. ARB’s line of rock sliders will help reduce this damage, while at the same time improve access to your truck. The manufacturing process utilizes steel tube formed into shape using an internal mandrel bender, ensuring consistency and even wall thickness across all sections. This is then securely fastened to the vehicle's chassis, and with the exception of rock sliders, an integrated step system attaches to these to complete the assembly. ARB rock sliders are built with high quality steel for optimal strength. These  are made from 3/16 high grade steel and utilizing strong 1.25 diameter schedule 40 pipe that is angled upwards 30 degrees with internal supports, drain holes and a powder coat finish that create the optimal strength. Fits Jeep Wrangler 97-06.
