Heavy-Duty Steel Protection. Frame-Mounted Strength. Premium Black Powder Coat.
Ultimate Armor for the Rubicon and BeyondThe CBI Jeep Gladiator Rock Sliders are engineered for the enthusiast who doesn't back down from a challenge. Designed specifically for the 2020 – Present Jeep Gladiator (JT), these sliders provide the ultimate barrier between your expensive rocker panels and jagged trail obstacles.
While factory sidesteps are made of plastic and thin-walled aluminum that fold under pressure, CBI sliders are built from heavy-duty steel to withstand direct impacts. Whether you're pivoting around a boulder or using them as a hi-lift jack point, these sliders are built to take the hit so your truck doesn't have to.
Why Choose CBI for Your Gladiator:The Pain: One wrong line on the trail can lead to thousands of dollars in rocker panel and door damage. Most "nerf bars" are for looks and offer zero structural protection.
The CBI Solution: Our sliders are frame-mounted for maximum rigidity, providing a true pivot point and a functional step that won't flex or fail when you're miles from the pavement.
Key Features: CBI Rock Sliders
Unlike "bolt-on" steps that attach to the thin pinch weld, these mount directly to the Gladiator's frame for maximum impact resistance.
The rear kickout design pushes your Jeep away from obstacles, protecting your rear bed and fender flares from trail damage.
Every set comes standard with a durable black powder-coated finish to resist corrosion and keep your sliders looking sharp for years.
Tucked high and tight to the body to maintain maximum ground clearance while still providing a usable step surface.
Constructed from high-grade steel tubing for superior strength-to-weight ratio compared to standard HREW tubing.
Designed to provide a secure footing for entering the vehicle or accessing gear on your roof rack.
Designed and manufactured with pride in the USA to ensure the highest quality standards for off-road use.
The structural integrity allows you to safely use a Hi-Lift jack anywhere along the slider for trail repairs.
Built for the Toughest TerrainCBI Offroad doesn't do "decorative." These rock sliders are torture-tested in the deserts of Moab and the tight trails of the Pacific Northwest. The gusseted mounting plates and heavy-wall tubing ensure that the impact energy is distributed across the frame rather than crushing your body panels.

"The peace of mind these CBI sliders provide is worth every penny. I dropped my Gladiator onto a ledge at Windrock and the slider took the full weight of the truck without budging. The powder coat is incredibly durable, and the kickout has saved my rear fenders more times than I can count. Install was straightforward and the fit is perfect."
- Mike S., Gladiator JT Owner Installation NoteProfessional Strength: Because these are true rock sliders designed for heavy impact, installation requires drilling into the vehicle frame to ensure maximum structural integrity. We recommend professional installation for those without heavy-duty drilling tools.

2020 Jeep Gladiator 2021-2023 Jeep Gladiator 2024+ Jeep GladiatorFinish Note: These sliders ship with a dual-stage textured black powder coat for maximum UV and scratch resistance.
Yes. To achieve the structural strength required for rock crawling, these sliders must be bolted to the frame. This requires drilling holes into the frame rails. This ensures they can support the weight of the vehicle during an impact.
CBI offers a high-quality powder coat finish; however, due to the nature of off-roading, the finish is not warranted against chips or scrapes from trail use. We recommend touching up any deep scrapes with black paint to prevent surface rust.
Absolutely. While they are designed for protection, the sliders sit out far enough to act as a solid, non-flexing step for entering and exiting your Gladiator. The textured powder coat also provides additional grip.
Yes, these sliders are designed with high-clearance ends to ensure no interference with oversized tires, even at full compression and lock-to-lock steering.
The loss of ground clearance is minimal. The sliders are designed to sit just below the rocker panel, and because they are smooth on the bottom, they actually help you "slide" over obstacles rather than getting hung up on the frame.

Prop 65 Warning- Product may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov
Proposition 65 is a California law passed in 1986. Its goals are to protect drinking water sources from toxic substances that may cause cancer and birth defects and to reduce or eliminate exposures to those chemicals generally, for example in consumer products, by requiring warnings in advance of those exposures.
The regulation requires the State of California to revise and republish yearly a list of chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm. The current list contains over 900 naturally occurring and synthetic chemicals. This regulation also requires manufacturers to place warnings on products that contain any of the chemicals listed by the State of California. No other states require warnings of this nature, and products with Prop 65 warning language are legal to sell in all states.

The wait time was more than I anticipated even after seeing the notification of long lead times. I have to give them props for giving some compensation for the excessive wait time. Having slightly larger holes would help with fitment. Had a hard time getting the front drivers side away from the pinch weld. Eventually had to use washers to add space away from the truck. Need to update pictures and instalation video for the new sliders they are now making
All packing and shipment were great, everything was there. I had to contract out the install because of arthritis, it took them two hours and looks perfect. Zero wind noise at any speed 0 to 100.
Absolutely love my new rack and roam cases. Appreciate the Sherpa crew as well for their hospitality while the installation was taking place.
Fit and finish is excellent. Looks great on the Bronco. No whistling noise at all, some additional wind noise over 60mph but not much different than it was without the rack. Assembly was not too difficult. Instructions and videos could be a little better.
The quality and dedication of the team at Sherpa is evident from the very first interaction with them, and is further proven in the product itself. This rack is well engineered, easy to assemble, easy to adjust, and holds up incredibly well with no loosening or rattling or shifting (even after over 200 miles of driving on poorly maintained roads). Currently operating with approximately 180 pounds of gear mounted on the bed rack and no issues at all so far. I expected the vibration to work the bolts loose over time, but every time I check they're all still snug. My only regret is that I didn't pull the trigger and get this rack sooner.
First of all, the team at Sherpa is full of passion for adventure and that passion shows in the quality of their products. This roof rack looks incredible and surprised me with it's sturdiness. No loosening of hardware, even after weeks of driving. Currently holding approximately 80 pounds of gear for everyday driving, plus an additional 110 strapped on top during a camping trip (and I even stood on top of the entire loadout). No warping, bending, twisting, or slipping. The fact that this matches the bed rack perfectly in height is the icing on the cake. Easily serves as a tie off for a tarp, rain fly, hammock, or whatever you need. Perfect for modular campsite setup and quick teardown.
I bought the Sherpa Crestone rack for my 2024 4Runner TRD Pro. Incredibly well-made and excellent design. Spend the extra , to get best roof rack in the market. You won’t regret it.
This is our first roof rack that we are going to use to put a RRT (roof top tent) on for back country trips. Well-built product that came with all the nuts, bolts and washers to complete the installation. Took about 1-1/2 to 2 hours install the rack. You will another person to help place the racks on top of the Jeep for final install. Overall, a great, well-built American product
Install was super easy. The quality was great. Customer service was quick to respond to any issues! I’ve already been getting compliments on it and what brand it is. This will be great for camping this year!
This is on my tundra absolutely solid rack looks fantastic extremely modular, which is why I went this route. I can use the whole rack when traveling and over landing then rock the chase rack only when the rest is not in use, I actually use the recovery traction board mounts for my shower room set up, which works amazingly just relocated the board somewhere shown in picture keep innovating TUWAand I’ll keep purchasing.
Good looking cat shields made of stainless steel with cooling holes. Priced well, easy install, no issues. Would buy again.
Great service from their staff. Robert help me through all the process with a request I had, he responded all emails in a timely manner and provided great help.
We received it within 3 days and installed the same day. Great awning and very well made.
the tent is very nice, comfortable and roomy.
Following the instructions was fairly easy. Its better to have second person to set it up. I really like the tent and the support that from ExtrailAuto. Really recommeded! Thanks
