Ice Nomad's Rocky Road sliders appear to stick out further than mine, so it looks like they made some changes between the set that I got (the prototypes) and the production design. Also, his has 6 diagonal supports per slider, while mine has 8. Probably not a big deal. Those seem comparable with the Shrockworks as far as how far they stick out. Anyone else buying Rocky Road sliders will probably be more similar to Ice Nomad's than mine.

In looking at it, it dawned on me that he removed his rocker panels to fit the sliders on his SR5. This might account for the difference as you have a Trail Edition.

So just to be clear, Harper7 or IdriveAT4R, can you stand on the Shrockworks rail while the door is closed to access the roof rack? I put kayaks on top often and I want to know if these will work before I order them. Thanks!

What are everyones thoughts?

Hey guys, how about just order a step slider from Shrockworks? Just tell him to make the rails flat/0* degree vice the 15* degree cantilever. I have talked to Shrockworks two weeks ago and the price is the same as his original design. This is what I'm going to order in a week once I get the money. Then I will go to Lowe's or Home Depot for an aluminum diamond plate to be installed on top of the rails.

do you have to remove any of the trim to put on the rock rail from either supplier and if so how does it look with out the trim? I would like to keep the trim if possible for a more finished look.

The TE you do not, but the SR5/Limiteds the side skirts get in the way and need to be removed or trimmed down.

So to confirm, no manufacturer of sliders make a pair that can install on SR5/limiteds without removing/modifying the rocker panels?

Is there a trim piece on the TE that can go on the limited when the lower panels are removed? If so what color does it come in? I am guessing black by the photos I have seen.

+1 Harper. Grerat info, so much great info on this board that it gets hard to find for a newbie.
Has any one tried to finish the exposed area? I was thinking that it could be painted out black to match the sliders. While I would like to replace all the trim With TE trim, I think the repaint would be a lot cheaper and easier.
