Rock Sliders for a 2020 Tacoma
- Thread starter agoodson
- Start date
I wanted something other than the standard bent tubes that most makers use so I went with Victory 4X4. They have "rock lights" built in, which is a little gimmicky, but they make nice courtesy lights if you wire them into the dome light circuit. The big expense to most sliders is shipping. Try to find a local maker and you can save $$$ by picking them up.

I'm in Middle Tennessee. I haven't found any makers that are, somewhat, local. Got relatives in Michigan, near Victory 4x4, so that might be an option.I wanted something other than the standard bent tubes that most makers use so I went with Victory 4X4.

I have mobtown, I like them. But yeah, the shipping is the major wasted expense part of it. Realistically, any of the reputable brands will be fine. Also, check lead times. They can be hefty.

Actually I lied. I have SOS sliders. I have mobtown skids.

SOS sliders
they really did a good job engineering them.
1) the gussets are longer than most anyone.
2) they sit a bit lower off the bottom of the cab so that they can flex up with the weight of the truck and not go into the cab (ask me how I know)
3) Also you can request the slider % angle.
4) save 10% off with code adventure

What did you end up getting? I just picked up a Tacoma as well and looking at sliders & skids.
Enthusiast III
Which ones have you checked out so far?

CBI, RCI, Rocky Road Outfitters and # of others that I have found on-line. Would like to do something more local but not a lot of rock slider and skid plate fabrication being done around Columbus, OH. I cam across Mobtown and seems like there are a lot of great reviews out on their product and service.

If your in Delaware you need to go check out Mobtown Offroad. They make a good product and are local to you.

Mobtown makes some A+ stuff. Their lead times have been... longer. Joe is a busy guy. But his stuff is really solid.
RCI makes good sliders. I had them. Decided to change to SOS Concepts sliders. I really like them, they had a lot of subtitle changes RCI sliders didn’t have. It’s a weird time because there aren’t many deals going on. I know SOS is doing a deal if you buy sliders you get a high lift base for free, and 10% off with promo code adventure
I just put caliraised led on mine.
Source?

I’m going to relook into this. I was told this from a guy who did the research on a bunch of brands. Let me follow up with him and see where he got his info.
I'll b curious as to how
I'm pretty sure they are made for Caliraised by Rago mfg.

Thanks! SOS looks pretty interesting. Pricing on skids looks really good as well! If I’m not misreading pricing it looks to be the best I’ve seen. Bout 8.5 hr drive there for me but could take long weekend and hit some SC trails while down there.

Lots of good stuff down there. Uwharrie national forest is down there and is beautiful and full of trails. Lots of good wheeling there.
I’m running SOS stuff and swear by it. I’ve smashed em. Hit em. Bumped em. Mudded em. All are holding up great. Front and rear bumpers. Sliders. Bed racks.
