JL 2DR
Product Resources
Features & Product Details
Designed to take on the hardest trails without flinching, with the most coverage possible -- all the way up to the bottom of the door sills! These are Next Venture's heaviest duty rock sliders for the JL. They designed to work with long arm kits and other popular JL upgrades without lots of modification... and of course to cruise down the hardest trails without a worry in the world!
If you want rock sliders you can bounce off of big rocks day after day, wheeling trip after wheeling trip, you'll care as much about what they're made of as what they're mounted to. That is why we mount these off of the frame and recommend *welding* them to the frame -- because, unlike bolts, welds don't back out and come loose after vibrations or boulders.
These are made from a combination of 2" DOM Round Tube (120 wall) and 1/4"+3/16" laser cut steel plate that is CNC formed. The 3/16" laser cut steel plate that spans the distance between the 2 structural tubes is designed with minimal rock catching cutouts -- to provide a strong smooth surface that will slide over rocks and obstacles while still allowing for drain cutouts near the bottom. The lower tube can also be supplemented with a solid aluminum insert for added strength against the toughest drops. Inserts are made of 1.75" OD 6061 Solid Stock, and increase the effective wall thickness and strength of the rock sliders and make them practically impossible to dent.
Due to the gussets/reinforcements that prevent unwanted flex of the rock sliders, 3 small notches for clearance (using a cut and fold method) are required in the JL pinch seam.
