GRAND CHEROKEE
WJ: '99 => '03 |
NEW IMPROVED DESIGN: As of January 2010, all of our WJ Rock
Sliders will be manufactured with a 2" wider stance, which will
hold your door 2" further off the rocks and trees than our
previous design would have. We have included this benefit
at no additional charge, to thank you, our loyal customers, for
your support and loyalty!
As you can see from the photo, the Hard-KOR Extreme Duty Lateral
Protection (LP2) Rocker Panel Protection Sliders' leading and trailing
edges stick out from the body at a 45 degree angle, so if there
is a rock that your tire has just dropped over, you will
not get caught on it, as this design allows the Rocker
Panel Protection Sliders
to lift the Jeep up and over obstacles.
| Hey Kevin, got a set of your Rocker Panel
Protection Sliders
seven years ago and am still beaten the sh***t out of
them. Your products are so good that it doesn't need
to be replaced. 7 years and two builds on my Jeep,
your Hard-KOR Rocker Panel Protection Sliders are the only thing I haven't upgraded and I
HAMMER them. Current Score: Rubicon-0 Fordyce-0
Barrett-0 KOR Sliders-7 Your Rocker Panel Protection Sliders ROCK!!!!!
Thanks, Todd from Nor Cal |
Note:
There is now a round tube version available. Click here to check
them out.

From this
angle, you can just barely see the 3" gap between the two
main rails. This allows for a non-slip notch for you to
insert a Hi-Lift jack
anywhere along the underside of the slider to lift the Jeep up
for changing a tire, getting un-stuck, or just to show off for
your friends (just kidding). The LP2 Extreme
Duty Round and Square Tube Rocker Panel Protection Sliders
will go on a Limited without any additional modifications.
However, the Laredo will require trimming and/or removal of the lower
body cladding. (My recommendation for Laredo owners is to remove the lower
cladding to install the Rocker Panel Protection Sliders without having to trim
anything. Then, if you ever decide to sell the Jeep, you can
take the Rocker Panel Protection Sliders off and reinstall the cladding.)
I
had several people e-mail me about my design who were asking
for a model that doesn't have the lateral protection bar on the outside,
so that you're able to bolt them on without modification of the
lower cladding on the Laredo and Overland model Grand Cherokees.
So, now there are two versions that you can
buy for your WJ. The Heavy Duty
Lateral Clearance (LC2) Rocker Panel Protection Sliders are built to
eliminate having to trim or remove the cladding and fits INSIDE the cladding, hanging down about
3/4"~1" lower than the cladding.
The LC2 model protects from underneath, and offers an extra 4" of clearance per side
when compared to the LP2 model for those really tight trails. These,
of course, are not
Hi-Lift-able like the LP1 version, but you could
surely get a stock bottle jack under them and the surface you
are on. Both versions were designed with maximum ground
clearance in mind: the lowest point on both versions is still
above the transmission cross member, so no ground clearance is
lost.
