JT
Product Resources
Features & Product Details
When a Jeep club or 4x4 organization works with the BLM or Forest Service to open a new trail, the first run is usually the toughest. That’s the idea behind the Trailbreaker Series—built for the kind of day where you don’t know what you’re going to hit, you just know it’ll be rough.
If I could only take one set of rock sliders to a true trail-breaking event on my JT, this is what I’d pick: a frame-mounted design that can take repeated hits, slide cleanly, and protect the areas most sliders leave exposed—including a real boatside transition when you choose the skin packages.
These Jeep Gladiator JT sliders are designed for serious rock use—not “step-only” duty—so you can pivot off obstacles, drag the belly without worry, and keep the lower body protected trail after trail.

Suspension / Long Arm Fitment Notes
Many long arm suspension systems use rear lower control arm frame mounts that can interfere with a full-coverage boatside panel.
To reduce install hassle and avoid customer trimming, the boatside panels are pre-cut to clear most long arm kits in the most common interference area.
Note: aftermarket variations exist. Minor hand fitting may still be required depending on your exact suspension and frame mount geometry.
