Chevy S10 Rock Sliders
Chevy S10 Rock Sliders fit 1996-2003 S10 model trucks. We do have kits for the newest generation Chevy trucks as well! We also have kits for most any other 4WD vehicle. Please search our website

- Great for use as steps!
- Far more Heavy Duty than the factory or other step kits (which are NOT “rock sliders”)

- Lifetime guarantee against main slider dents
- Undisputed Strongest S10 Rock Slider available
- 3/16″ Hitch steel main slider standard
- DOM Round Tube standard
- Free Black Powdercoat Finish or Bare Metal for Customization
- Easy Bolted Installation, NO WELDING!!!
- Highest Ground Clearance of any rock slider kit
- Multiple style options
- Made in USA, with US Steel, US Workers
- NEVER EVER weld rock sliders to your frame! This leads to torn and buckled frames. AVOID!!
Those factory steps on your S10 are at their stress limit when you step on them. If you ever bump or hit them offroad on the rock/stump/ledge… they will bend. And they might just damage your rocker panels when they do. Get rid of those light duty show bars and install some true protection to your S10 and step system!!
You may find cheaper and more poorly designed sliders than Rocky Road (such as the factory tube kits), but RRO kits are the best built in our industry, ramped ends instead of ‘ramming’ ends, strong enough to easily handle a Hilift jack (whereas others will not), bolted mounting systems (NEVER WELDED), powdercoat finish, available in several different styles and levels of side impact protection.
Chevy S10 Rock Sliders
Everyone thinks their kit is “the best”. What we believe puts Rocky Road Sliders above the rest is our triangulated mounting system, and how tight and high up our sliders sit. NOTHING BEATS TRIANGULATION MOUNTING!
The factory rocker “guard” kits we have seen use a very light duty screw and clip mounting system. Those factory bars looked cool, but if anything ever hit them, you think those screw-clips are going to save your truck? NO WAY!! The only way to truly protect your truck is with a set of Rocky Road rock sliders!
Forget hacking together a makeshift Toyota kit that won’t fit right, mount optimally, or even look halfway decent. Our kits are designed for the S10 specifically!
S10 Rock Slider Step Kits
We use thick inner hitch steel to make sure your bars do NOT bend! Anything else is just plain flimsy. Most other “rocker slider” kits are made from 1/8″ wall or thinner material…. truly flimsy. Don’t group our kits in with those flimsy tube nerf bars as those will bend on a hard impact. As pretty as those chrome or black round tube jobbers may look, when push comes to shove, and rocks come to crunch, those kits will will bend…. and many times, they’ll shove themselves up into the body causing vehicle damage when they do collapse.
Our S10 Rock Sliders have a very sleek rounded look about them as we use genuine inner hitch steel in their construction. Hitch steel is not only very strong, it also has a nice radius corner instead of a hard boxy look. Inner hitch steel is the stuff you use to plug into 2″ receiver hitches. Its sheer weight is astronomical as is its bending strength. Our shop press only goes to 100 tons and we can’t even start to bend them. Do you think a scrawny little rock can hurt these things?
Think again!
Why hitch steel? Why not go with a lesser gauge steel to save production costs? Because we wouldn’t trust anything less to protect our vehicles and neither should you! We made them indestructible so they’ll last forever!
Our Superslider and Kicker Rock slider kits make for excellent steps too!
Chevy S10 Rock Sliders
Our rock sliders are very simple to install and are ‘bolted’ with no welding or metal/plastic cutting at all. Rocky Road rock slider kits can be installed by anyone at home. No vehicle cutting or modification is needed. Instructions outline the simple bolted process for installation. Save money doing it yourself and you’ll be shocked at the short installation time!
You’ll find the S10 Rock Sliders to be very attractive and will blend in nicely with your stock flares and moldings. Many folks have commented on their very OEM (factory) look. They tuck tighter to the body than any other rocker on the market as well.
POWDERCOATING. Some shops charge you extra for powdercoating… Huh?!?
All Rocky Road rock slider kits come coated in a great looking black. You’re gonna pay the same price as a Rocky Road kit and get it in bare metal? That’s crazy! Or pay a hundred $$ extra to have that shop coat them for you? Even Crazier!!! With Rocky Road rock sliders, its all included!
Notice the beveled ends? The nice 45* ramp which would slide up and over any rock or stump on the trail? Its takes more time and effort to manufacture the kits this way, but that’s all included with the Rocky Road kits. Those flimsy factory bars… that have blunt squared ends on them. Those weak factory bars are ‘rock stoppers’… not rock “sliders”. Why would they build their kits with this engineering defect? Simple… its cheaper to manufacture with the flat end, so that’s what they go with.
Chevy S10 Kicker & Superslider Rock Slider Step kits
- S10 KICKER ROCK SLIDERS!!
- More side protection…
- Excellent step usage…
- Diamond Plate cover!
Kicker Rock Sliders feature the same great mounting strength and overall design as our Superslider kits, but with that extra rear kick-out section in back. For years these have been hugely popular with the Toyota guys, and now Rocky Road is finally bringing them to Chevy and GM people! In a nutshell, Rockrails are the strongest and thickest bars on the market, best mounting system, numerous superior engineering points. Why wouldn’t you get a set?
Some folks ask if they can handle a HiLift jack. HA! If a rock slider cannot handle a gentle upward push from a HiLift, how is it supposed to block an assault by a full body slam on a rock??? Our Rockrails can handle anything and everything you can throw at them.
These rocker bars offer all the strength and warranty of our regular Rockrails, but with the added bonus of an additional upper tube. This upper tube can provide even more protection against sliding into rocks, trees, other trail hazards… or even careless doors flying open in parking lots. Everyone who has seen these on our shop 4x4s has wanted a pair. They are unequaled in strength and looks. They also make an excellent step for access to roof racks and such.
One of our favorite uses of the Superslider/Kicker kits is as a bash guard against other swinging doors in a parking. Imagine the dismay of the chump who just threw open his car door only to whack it on the solid steel of your super slider. He just stuck a nice dent in the edge of his door, your baby still looks cherry!
