Installation of Shrockworks Rock Sliders

 

[MapMaker7]

I'm in Canada, so it is likely better for you to get them printed locally. When I'm done I'll upload the model files somewhere and post a link and you can get them printed. I should have it done in a few days.

Were you ever able to make an STL file? If so, are you able to provide a link?

I'd def be interested

I know that the stock Tremor tubes are NOT rock sliders and are NOT frame mounted. Any idea how much weight they can support if being dragged (not dropped hard) over something?

I just swapped mine out today for Shrockwork sliders. They are pretty flimsy and lightweight (surprisingly so) so I would not count on them to handle much abuse.

I just pulled mine off this weekend...it looks so much better now and no more scraping my leg on the steps. The Shrockwork sliders are the ones I've been eyeballing as a replacement but I haven't pulled the trigger yet. Looks like a pretty easy install. I was going to get the treadplate but it seems like that could suck for winter snow/ice buildup.

Yep very easy install. It does add a fair amount of weight and to be honest I kind of preferred the look with nothing installed but since I had already bought the sliders I installed them. I did add the tread plate. Didn’t think about ice buildup. Guess I will see?

Eh, it's probably just me overthinking it, I'd still probably get it.

I plan on taking the stops off when my Tremor arrives in two weeks. I"m 6ft and they basically are shin breakers.

I forgot to mention, there isn't just a round hole the size of the bolt in the top of the tube. It's a rectangular hole for each bolt, about 35mm by 43mm. So it looks weird. I'm in the process of designing and 3d printing a plug to go in the holes.

Sold! Let me know when you have them.

Anyone think of a good way to fill the holes yet? Got the grip tape but figure it’ll sink it.
thinking maybe some spray foam or something

I used grip tape. It's held fine for the month I've had the truck.

I took the steps off of mine and covered them with grip tape until my white knuckle rock sliders arrived. Very happy with them, and no drilling of the frame required.
As others stated, the factory steps were surprisingly lightweight, I wouldn’t have trusted them to take the weight of truck on a drop

Spray expanding foam with grip tape was going to be my plan but my wife and kids have a hard time getting into the truck without them. Boys are 6yo. So I guess I will just have to lift it enough to justify the steps lol
