Hey gang. I looked for this and cannot find it but need a quick answer asap. I bought by TT lite yesterday..they are ordering parts for it that I still want.

It did not have the rock rails on it..is that an easy install? And are their better ones that I want instead of the factory ones? I can get them ordered but need to do so today.

Thanks,

Rock Rails.....aka: Sliders are an easy install. 8 bolts perside although you might want an extra set of hands to manhandle them into position. I am sure you could do it yourself but just to make it easier.

The type you buy is pretty much a persoanl taste thing. The Toyota OEM sliders are tucked up tight to the body and do not offer any sort of step assist. Delmello and All pro offer a kick out for extra protection.

Personally ....Bang for Buck you can't beat the Trail Gear sliders. Right now there is a group buy at $215. Can't beat that price.

Thanks..I will look at those and not sweat the dealer option! I can't wait till I can drive it home! TRD exhaust is on backorder..so that gets installed in a few weeks.

floor jack and a 2x6 board makes for an easy install by yourself...:bigthumb:

I have a set of DeMello hybrids and I love them, a couple of safety jacks and I had both sides installed in under 30 minutes, solo.

What he said!, The TRD rockrails are way over priced and suck. I have the Allpro and love them. Very easy install.

Go after market on the sliders. Lots of styles.

Welcome... Metal Tech makes probably the strongest sliders on the market... and they look great. Here is a video of how easy it is to install any rock rails on the FJC.

Strongest looking sliders I have ever seen are custom built in NJ by Dave Crum.... So very cool.
