You would need rockrails or supersliders

Rock Lizard has closed up shop for who knows how long. I kinda like how the RRO curve up but the stories I heard I settled for RL. Little did I know the RL ones took forever to get. I woulda dealt with the hassle of getting the RRO if I would've known before hand. Don't get me wrong, I love my sliders and they're of good quality but it shouldn't take multiple phone calls, emails and a thread asking how to better get ahold of him to get my sliders. I got mine within a couple months and I know other people who waited longer and also people that are still waiting.

Sorry that turned into a rant. :lol:



Sliders do make using a hi lift easier but there isn't really a good spot inside to store it so its kind of in the way.

Well you're not getting the RL, plain and simple. There is one person on here who owns a set of RRO for sure, maybe more. What he says about them idk. There have been a few people buy roof racks from them and have said their stuff isn't bad but were missing hardware and lack of instructions. Haven't heard anything absolutely terrible happening in a while with an exception of some KJ A-arms.

I have seen RRO sliders on a KK that bent up so bad that you could not get the pass doors open.
