Steps and Rock sliders

[Flugondus]

I saw some cool rock liders for cherokees that could also work as steps are the sliders to long or somethin to look good on a comanche and could they be a step and slider at the same time.

tell me where to get cool sliders/ steps or just steps please.

These are the best price I have seen by far and nicely done. I am going to buy these if I decide I want side protection and a step.

Otherwise I will just build my own with one rail tight to the pinch seam.

mine were made/modified out of those with PInch seam attachment and 4 legs. Mine are the 78" variety because I'm a LWB.

If you've got a SWB then check out Mark are www.detoursusa.com

Mine were made as a special order by Brian here: www.cherokee-nation.com

Pics of mine.

 

These two are very big

Does anyone make a "slider" for the lower rear panel?

It hits when you come off a good size rock or ledge.

I think Detour is working on that, I saw a picture of one of his MJ bumpers and it was awesome, plating over the rear quarter.

I ended up buying a set of RE? rock rails/sliders for a XJ at a swap meet. Since I have a SWB, I ended up modifing the mounting points so they would fit better and match the profile of the MJ.

They saved the MJ rockers out in Colorado 5+years ago. ;)

sounds like you need a custom rear bumper tied into the "frame" that comes up along the rear. thats what I'm gettin made by a shop down here

[Detour]

Not sure if Matt posted any pics of his rig here, since it left my shop......but this is a good shot of the SWB slyders we offer along with our rear bumper we'll be offering, it'll come with the lower rocker protection.....

 

Working on LWB..... :brows:

[attaboybob]

Detours, keep us posted on the lower (rear) panel protection.

no doubt, I've found that it's very vulnerable.

[Detour]

Its my best guess by 'lower rear' your refering to this area...

That area will be part of the bumper.......an independent pcs, armor by itself would look abit 'assey' due to the wrap around fade away contour which falls behind the bumper......Maybe theres away to pull off a good looking pcs, have to wait & see.

 

This area cleans up pretty good with alil armor...

 

Cab corners a pretty tough, but we'll see what happens... :chillin:

[attaboybob]

Detours,

that is exactly what I am interested in.

the piece in the forward part of the bed looks good too.

Hey that looks great Detour! Put me on the list for your LWB rear bumper, and rock slyders when ready for sale

 

Is that a 2" hitch receiver in the center? What's the tow rating, and do you slip the hitch pin behind the bumper? Thx!

[Detour]

Yes, thats how I place the 2" recievers in the bumpers for XJ/MJ and most

other custom applications. As far as a 'true rating', you can only get that

by supplying your parts to an independent lab, have them destroy parts,

then supply rating...... :nuts: not going to happen...

 

I will say, just like I tell the XJ crowd....small trailer, 2 ATV's, small boat,

small landscaping trailer...small 'newer' pop-up camper.....should all be

fine, and they have been to this day to the best of my knowledge.

[attaboybob]

any suggestions for displaying the rear license plate?

 

...BOB

[pingpong]

back glass, or zip tied to the tail gate handle

[Detour]

Typically, the 'L' plate gets worked in with the spare, the bumpers have

thus far been built on a custom basis, so....I was able to work with the

individuals as far as placement went.

 

But....I see a possible hitch insert to retain your plate.......a bracket mount

for behind the drivers head area......tailgate mount?
