Anyone know of any rock sliders that fit the Ranger Raptor?

Edit: Rocky Road Outfitters in Utah appear to have some quality rock sliders in different configurations that can withstand a forklift

I am waiting on the new ARB ones that mount to frame.

If so, do you have pics?

Just curious what it looks like without them (preferably on an XLT). I find that they are just in the way because this truck does not sit that high.

Although, they are very good door ding deterrents!
I have a Lariat on its way and I didn’t get them because the truck sits low enough. For me it was just a waste of money if I’m not going to use them.

They start out at $899. Look to be very well built.

Mine didn’t have RB’s installed, but decided on these tyger rider ones. Lightweight and has a textured powder-coat finish similar to bed liner. $179 on Amazon.

I don’t mind them or the look. I was on a road trip to see my mom and she’s elderly so she used them. I will keep them just for rock guard.

Wow that looks great! Could you take a picture closer up the under body please?
Thanks !
I have a couple more from the install process.
The truck is back in the shop trying to find a way to get those front fender pieces to stay stuck . They’re not shaped correctly for the Raptor’s bulged fenders and fender flairs even though the Ford website said they would fit a Raptor.

I will get you some more when I get it back in a day or two.

That front piece we are fighting with to get it to stick in place and fit properly. Is missing in this pic. If we end up taking them off and leaving them off, we will pain those pinch welds black to help hide them.

In this pic it was prior to the paint touch up we did to get rid of the white bits peeking out on the bottom.

We also went back and touched up that grey tape shat is showing with some black paint to better conceal it.

This is rocker pieces we are fighting. They are shaped wrong and had to be trimmed to clear the fender flairs .
May end up having to leave them off.

I did this exact some setup with my Bronco, black vinyl trim on the belly covered by the Ford rocker guard kit, worked out great.

In hind sight, now that I know the rocker guards are not really meant for the Raptor fenders I would have gone with the bedliner / rhino liner on the belly.

Did you add that black strip or is that what’s under the running board? What is that black strip made out of?

It is a vinyl wrap that we added prior to installing the rocker guards.
I wanted to tie the black fender flairs from the front to back as well as hide the white paint that would have shown up in the gaps between the rocker guard moldings.

Do you have a pic of what it looks like with the boards off before you did anything?
