Body Armor Rock Crawler Side Steps Reviews
The side steps are exactly what I'm looking for. Not for the step, bonus, but for the rocker protection. I already put some beauty marks on the stock ones so I decided to upgrade.
They're okay. Unfortunately what they don't show you in the image is that they are about 3.5"-4" too short on the Gladiator. They do not cover the length of the body near the rear tires so you'll likely damage that area if you are a rock crawler. Super heavy too. I can feel my JT sway side to side more with these installed. They do look good and seem to be manufactured well. I wouldn't recommend them if you're a wheeler though.
I bought these for our 2020 Gladiator rather than a mopar model because they look great (to us) and we wanted protection with a little kick out to be able to step on when needed.
These are very heavy and heavy duty side rails.
Installation was not easy. The parts are made well. Holes are in the correct locations. The difficulty comes in with 8 bolts per side passing through the pinch weld at the bottom of the body. (These are a nice feature as the rail is very secure with the already strong brackets and fasteners beneath. I have read reviews regarding other rails that it is a good idea to drill the holes through the pinch weld a little wider. I did that with only three holes beside that were slightly small. If I had done that with all the home installation probably would’ve gone quicker. I got hung up with some difficult spots and had to make adjustments.
The rear brackets are a little extra difficult due to a separate mounting plate that you must set inside the rear frame of the bumper and hold in place while placing a bolt through. I found it easier to use my own bolts and nuts for the two separate holes.
