Looks pretty nice, but I haven't seen them in person so I can't speak to the sturdiness. Normally I'd be concerned with components like this that have an unnecessary number of moving parts that can fail, but it's probably fine.

Here are my two concerns- if it moves, it won't be much use as a rocker guard. Also, if it moves only when you're stepping on it, there's a solid risk of slippage. I'll stick to my no-frills step/guard, thanks! Mark W.

I'm with Mark. The concept is nice and it looks good but that's it. For practical circumstances and the known reliability of a solid welded rock guard seems much better. But, if your jeep is a pavement princess I say go for it.

LOL!! Pavement Princess!! Haha... That's a good one!

Thanks for the feedback, I don't see myself doing any hard-core rock trails (yet), for now it'll probably be snow in the winter and getting dirty in the mud in the summer. Call me a newb, that's ok... I'll probably check them out and see how it goes.

I was hoping for a follow up on this if you got them. looking into getting a pair for my JKU. (pavement princess) lol

 

[steveybassmac]

Same here. Looking into buying a set but would like some real world experience with them first.

They are not that strong to be used as a slider or anything hitting it hard

They lock down to be used as a step , but dont lock up so when you fold them up you have to stay off of it

Besides that they are really good for short people because they sit a lot lower then most steps

Saw them when they came out ..... I'm a little hesitant about them. Been out on the trails a couple of times and survive with what I have , but I plan on changing to the enhanced rubi rail from extreme terrain. I rather have them not move at all.

Let me know when you're ready to pull the trigger on those Barricade Rock Sliders and I'll get you set up with a great price!

I'm interested in a set of the barricade rubi enhanced slide/steps. Is that great price open to all forum members?

AlphaM1, just PM Ryan directly. He is a good dude, he'll square you up.

... looking to get sidestep / rock rail combo

I've been looking at a few. I'm wondering which of these is better -

the Smittybilt SRC Side Armor

Smittybilt SRC Wrangler Side Armor - Black Textured 76634 (07-17 Wrangler JK 4 Door) - Free Shipping

the Barricade rock sliders (linked above by Ryan)

or the Rampage retractables.

Looking to pull the trigger soon - I've got a new 2016 JK Unlimited Rubicon in Mojave Sand that needs side steps for some of my shorter passengers.
