My June 2017-vintage RCI sliders are losing their powder coating/paint and rusting in areas that don’t contact rocks. Love them, but guess I need to wire brush the rust and paint these areas. Looking forward to installing my full aluminum RCI skid package as soon as they’re ready.

@RCI_Offroad can you PLEASE re-upload the photos so we can see them? (I created an account just to ask )

I'm placing an order in the next week or two but don't currently know if I need to rush it to get an "existing" style, or wait a little and get a "revised" version. (Or are there better terms to use if I want to add a note to the order? Welded plates vs bolt-on plates?)

Thanks in advance!

I emailed RCI about this yesterday morning but haven't gotten any response.

Is there a way to tag them here, so they would see a notification? (Sorry, I'm new here.)

I'd really like to make an informed decision before purchasing...

UPDATE - I got an email reply that they would try to get the pictures re-uploaded.

Those look great. I like how your not using floating fasteners for the top plate. If I didn’t already have caliraised I would have got these.

Bear in mind that our primary goal is increasing production capacity so while there will be a few small improvements we are trying to keep the overall cosmetics as similar to the existing ones as we can.

If you did want to place an order and receive the new ones WITH the tax sale I would place your order in like 2 weeks when it is all but guaranteed that you will get the new ones. Also leave a note on the order requesting the new version and we will do our best to make that happen.

PS. our tax sale is scheduled to finish out on Tax day, so you have until then.
Kind of bummed, followed your instructions, waited until the end of tax time to submit my order which I would have submitted earlier, included the note to get the new version, and after a 7 week wait got the standard welded version with no communication from RCI

Edit Rci reached out and gave me some options but I just decided to keep them.. Still look good

I don't remember, but it was early 2020 or late 2019. Pretty much all the powder on the tread plate is flaking off.

Are the 5 degree useful as a step? How wide are they once installed.

Has anyone who has gotten the RCI sliders after this change had any issues with rust? I've seen quite a few threads via searching about RCI sliders having rust issues as a result of the powder coating quality. I'm wondering if this new change has resolved the issue. Thanks!
