They look good on a silver truck! I installed mine last weekend... Super easy and fit great!

I got my shipping confirmation so hopefully some time next week I'll get them.

Edit: Checked this morning (3/15) and they are now in Louisiana.

Making their way here...

No, I'm not anxiously awaiting them. Why do you ask?

Just got mine today. Took about an hour and half to install because the directions aren’t very detailed. But finally figured it out. I think they look great and seem very stout!
Woah, I don't think I've seen anyone get them without the textured powder coat finish. They look nice and clean! haha. I like the textured finish myself but they also look really good with the regular black powder coat finish as well. Very nice! :like:

ya, the only problem with textured is when they get scratched up you can’t rattle can it to look the same. Once these get scratched up it’s an easy fix.

And mine finally showed up today. Yay!

And they were missing all 4 of the 1/2 inch nuts for the long bolts. Boo!

No problem. Quick trip to hardware store to buy 4 nuts. Yay!

Problem. Stores closed at 6 due to CV and sliders arrived at 5:45. By the time I realized I needed to get hardware, the stores were closed. Boo!

They look nice laying on the garage floor.

Got them installed today but not without drama.

Got the hardware I needed so ready to go.

Carrying the hardware out to the truck and I dropped a couple of the "Stick Nuts" and one of them literally fell apart. The nut fell off the metal strap.

The weld had zero penetration and the nut might as well have been taped on.

Irritating, but I'm glad it happened then instead of the nut popping loose in the frame and just spinning without being able to be tightened or removed.

So I had to dig out my welder and weld the nut back on.

After all was done they do feel sturdy and look nice, but I kinda wish I'd have gone for the Rocky Road sliders with the kickouts near the bed.

The bedsides are high on this truck and I think they would've helped a lot.

20/20 hindsight.

SuperCrew or SuperCab? On our SuperCab, equipped with Shrockworks Rocksliders, I can step on it to access the front bed tie downs.

Skids and sliders en route, however I've got to paint mine as I wanted something easier to touch up than powder coat, rattle can doesn't stick well to beat up PC. After much digging, going to go with por10 and then top coat it with a uv stable hard coat. Should be the most rust resistant, but some extra effort up front.

Got a question for those that had steps prior to installing the sliders. In prep for the delivery of my sliders I pulled my factory steps off the truck today. Once you removed the bolts that hold the steps on, did you put them back in or do something else to fill the holes in the body? I was thinking of just reinstalling the bolts to prevent water intrusion. If you never had factory steps how did Ford fill the holes for the bolts that hold the factory steps on?

Thanks for the help

My Ranger never had running boards. When I installed my sliders I don't remember seeing any holes on my Ranger in the cab floor where steps would have been placed? No steps... no holes?

I'd suggest you buy some "never seize".. glob some on the bolts and put them back in.
