3rd Gen Tacoma Mods: RCI Rock Slider Installation. Now I Just Need To Find Some Rocks To Bash On.

- In this video I install a set of RCI rock sliders for the 3rd Gen Tacoma. I go over the installation of both driver and passenger sides. Although they're mostly the same the drivers side is a little more involved. I did make a mistake which I point out in the video, so hopefully after watching this you can breeze right through it.

Thank you for making this video. I enjoyed your straightforward explanation and the helpful editing. I'm tackling this job soon.
I will be getting my RCI rock sliders today and this video will definitely help me during the installation. Thanks for making this!
Thanks, huge help!! Picked up mine yesterday in their warehouse, they're only 45 mins. away from where I live. I picked the 5 degree w/ top plate and powder coated to have a usable steps, access to roof racks and recovery gear very handy. It also added ding protection from parker cars. They're %20 off right now and best time to get one.
Awesome. Im an hour from them so I picked mine up too. I wish they were 20% off when I got mine.
Great video! I can’t wait to pick my RCI sliders up, I ordered at the end of May should be done soon.
Mine took almost exactly 8 weeks to get. I had the chance to test them this past weekend. The sliders took a big hit from a rock like a champ. My rear bumper didn't fare so well. That same rock destroyed my bumper end cap.
I guess that’s an excuse to get a new rear bumper. 😎🤘
SUPER JOB. THANK YOU FOR ALL THE INFO. I HAVE TACOMA OFFROAD AND I TCHECK ALL VIDEO FOR THIS ROCK SLIDERS, I M GONNA ORDER THIS ONE RCI, THEY ARE REALLY TOUGH , I LIKE THIS CIE , THEY MAKE GREAT STUFF. I M PROBABLY TAKE THE FULL SKID PLATE FOR RCI TO. YOU R VIDEO ARE VERY GOOD. I CAN WAIT TO RECEIVE MY AND PUT TO MY TACO . THANK AGAIN. HAVE FUN TAKE CARE . 👍👍👍
Thanks. RCI makes quality products. When I picked line up at their headquarters I got to see a little of their shop and it's a top notch facility.
Really nice music selection
Thanks for this vid. Couple questions. The brake line plastic clips, one the slider is installed, do they go back in? Are there hole drilled to accommodate those? Same with the wiring harness clip ??
Thanks for the video!! The current text-only RCI instructions just don't do it for me
I'm curious how you managed to install the metal bracket with attached electrical components on the driver's side. After installing the bolt, washers, and nut, I noticed that the bolt is too long and interferes with installing the bracket. The bracket has welded bolts on it, so I cannot simply use longer bolts to adjust for the bolt used to mount the slider. Do you have any advice regarding this?
I think you're talking about the box on the inside of the frame, right? On mine the two mounting studs for that box have enough length to be mounted even with the sliders on. If you have an RCI bolt installed where the box mounts, you may have to cut the bolt down so it'll fit behind the box. Or you can put that bolt in another location so it doesn't interfere with the box.
It's been a while since I did mine but I don't think I had to trim any bolts. What year is your truck? Some years and configuration have different setups along the frame.
@@infinitemods540 Correct, the metal box. 2020 model year. I'm thinking about buying a shorter bolt or cutting it.
Either way should work. Is there another bolt hole you could put that bolt in, instead of the around that box? If I was around me truck I'd go look at mine.
Nice install! I am debating between their 20 vs 5 degree options. Can you still use yours as a step?
They functioned as a side step just fine. If you or anyone that uses them actually "needs" side step to get into the truck the 0 degree works work best. The 20 degrees worked fine for me.
Hey, installed mine last night, but could not for the life of me get the forwardmost bolt installed for the frame support bracket. I could not reach my arm in enough to reach the hole
I definitely had to wedge my arm in there to get it to work.
@@infinitemods540 Thanks for the reply! I was laying perpendicular to the frame, but i see you were more facing the front of the vehicle so i will try that tomorrow. Thanks!
Thanks for the video just place an order. Do you by any chance know the weight of this tough guys ? Thanks in advance.
I think they were 60 pounds each, but it's been a while since I weighed them.
@@infinitemods540 thanks for your reply. Have a nice weekend.
Hey just wondering if these get in the way at all when you get in out of the truck or if they are tucked in tight enough that you don’t hit them at all.
You do have to adjust how you get in and out of the truck. I have had done older relatives have a tough time with them (getting in and out of the rear). But if you are in decent health they aren't an issue at all.
@@infinitemods540 thank you for the reply, that’s a big help!
Are these the 20 or 5*?
They have the 20 degrees angle.
