What’s the difference between rock rails and rock sliders?

Rock rails are frame-mounted for maximum structural protection, while rock sliders can serve both as armor and as a side step. Both protect your vehicle’s rocker panels from trail damage.

Are rock rails worth it for overlanding?

Yes. Rock rails prevent costly body damage when traversing rocky trails or uneven terrain—making them a must-have for overlanders and trail explorers.

Do rock rails affect ground clearance?

Properly designed rock rails are built to maintain or improve ground clearance while reinforcing your rig’s underbody protection.
