The rocker panel is the most vulnerable area on your vehicle when off-road, as well as one of the most costly to repair. Protect your truck with a pair of RCI heavy duty Toyota Tacoma rock sliders.

RCI sliders utilize a full frame support mounting plate which serves both to protect your Toyota Tacoma from damage, as well as provides an extremely rigid attachment for the sliders by using multiple bolt locations all across the frame. These will help protect your Tacoma both off-road as well as in the parking lot, and are still very functional as a step if needed.

KEY FEATURES

  • Sliders come STANDARD with 1.75″ DOM outer rails for uncompromised strength
  • Heavy duty 1/4″ thick gussets on all four legs
  • Mitered, 3/16″ steel, laser cut and bent end caps are stronger, more functional, and look better than competitors square cut sliders. We take everything a step further
  • Full length 3/16″ frame plate and FOUR leg design guarantee a slider as strong or stronger than anything on the market
  • Easily capable of supporting the entire side of truck for lifting with hi-lift, or sliding on rocks

  • Direct bolt on addition to existing mounting locations, no drilling required
  • Available tread plate for step surface provides many benefits
    • Added safety for kids and pets getting in and out of the vehicle

    I’ve had these rock sliders for about a year and a half, love the look, no rust at all, quality of the materials are top of the line. They have saved my truck from door dings as my truck has no door dings. Cannot recommend enough.

    Just installed these. Went with the standards, no filler, w/ kick outs. The driver side install is a PITA, no fault of RCI what so ever. Passenger side is a breeze. Absolutely stoked with my decision to go with RCI. Every product Ive put on my truck has looked good and proven to be functional. These are no exception and the staff is on point as well. RCI is the sheet…

    Just got mine . Easy install. Quality is awesome. If you got young kids or pets get the top plates. I cringe thinking about there legs going in the holes when they get out. Just saying on any sliders. Love my sliders

    Love these sliders, install by myself in my driveway was simple enough with some jack stands.
    I have had them a year now and have punished them with no complaints at all in terms of performance but the powdercoat on the top plates did pop/chip on the outer edge along the tubing seam since they aren’t fully welded (and I don’t think that would be a practical solution either).
    They’re starting to rust on those edges so I’ll have to get them all cleaned up come spring. I am thinking that it might be better to have a gap/relief between the tubing and the top plate even though it looks SUPER clean having it all flush.

    Other competitive versions of this design use bolted on plates and I would never opt to go that route unless someone really had the patience to waterproof every piece of hardware.

    These sliders are built rock solid, look great, and installation was easy. Very pleased with quality of craftsmanship, and most importantly it made in the good ole USA. Next install is the skid plates.

    These sliders are great! If I could post a picture of the protection damage I would…
    They look great and do their job.
    Only negative I didn’t get a sticker:(

    These bad boys (plus the RCI front skid and a hitch-mount skid) allowed is to take a stock Tacoma through Hell’s Revenge with zero body damage. All that’s needed is a little touch-up paint on the sliders and it’s good as new.

    Purchased these the same day I ordered my 2020 Tacoma TRD Off Road in voodoo blue. Very happy with the quality of product. These were packed very well and had zero issues with shipping. I ordered the standard 20 degrees with top plate and painted satin black. Was able to install by myself with the help of a floor jack. I was able to keep foam wrap and cellophane on during installation in case I lost balance with my floor jack. I knew I had to pop off 2 covers off the frame for the front mounting holes and all was straight forward. My only issue was a wire harness on the drivers side. I had to remove 2 clips on the frame that held the wire harness, with the slider nearly in place. Over all I think these are the best sliders available and the price was great. RCI does have sales on their products unlike some other vendors. Would definitely purchase these again and plan to buy more RCI items in the future. I would attach pictures if it was an option to show off my RCI sliders.

    Love these RCI sliders on my 2016 Tacoma. The guys at RCI quickly responded with photo go answer a question pre-purchase. The first mod to my truck, they were a little harder to install than I expected. But when a guy in a civic pulled into traffic and rammed the side of the truck, these saved my bacon. A scuff on the sliders and a scratch on my rear wheel vs him losing his front bumper. RCI FTW!!
