@@LevelUpMechanics they really do. I’ve got a “sport series” pre runner they had blacked out wheels stock. Mines a second gen ‘15 I traded for the new 2022 sport wheels.
Really good video. I just installed the same exact on my 2022 Taco except mine were bed liner coated. A few tips. Number 1 - absolutely install the top plates before you mount the rock sliders. And unlike the video, I highly recommend you install all the bolts, including the three bottom ones on each side with the spacers finger tight at least - then tight them all up in roughly the order in the video. Love the video man! 🧡
Thanks for the support! And thanks for sharing some useful installation tips! So far, the powder coated version is holding up really well, but I bet your bed liner coated ones are even more durable 👊👍
@@LevelUpMechanics Yes they are, but much more difficult to install as many of the bolts have to be "threaded" by hand through the bed liner material on the slider. (Make sense?)Just slows you down a bit. But love the Cali Raised LED sliders. Great product.
I really like these sliders more now after watching. Thanks for the video. Saving to playlist to follow this as a guide when I get mine. Any plans for a roof rack?
Thanks for the support! I do plan on adding a roof rack in the near future. I just have to get caught up with the current projects that I have in the works first 😁👍
Great video. My install on a 23 Tacoma went well. The only thing I changed was the rear driver's side frame bolt pointing out like the black box bolt for extra clearance on fuel lines. I encourage you to also make a video on a taco ARB summit front bumper. Great product but for 2k the instructions were terrible
I'll look into the front bumper 👍. Thanks for checking out the video! Having extra clearance near the fuel lines is definitely a great idea / suggestion! I appreciate the useful info 👍.
I'm glad to hear that the video is helpful 😁 👍. So far, they are holding up as if they were still brand new. No rust, no blemishes, no issues of any kind. I am very happy with the quality 😎
@@LevelUpMechanics excellent I have been eyeing them for awhile now up here on Vancouver island. Not a extreme off roader but alittle more Amour doesn't hurt. Keep the videos coming, your clear voice and detailed instructions are excellent. Life can get in the way at times but jsyk your videos are great.
I appreciate it 👍. I have been stuck for the past couple of months, working on a ton of projects for the Civic & Tacoma. New videos will start again within the next 2 weeks. 😁
I mean, technically, once you have that bottom 14mm bolt lined up with the rock slider and the frame (one for each side), all of the rest of the holes line up and become pretty self-explanatory. I hope that this info helps and makes sense 😁
Hopefully they will respond back soon and send you the missing hardware. Originally, I was missing the 4 short sleeves and 2 long sleeves for the vertical bolts. I sent an email, and they responded back within 24 hours. I received the hardware in the mail within 3-4 days... It wasn't a big deal for me since I was still able to install the rock sliders. However, I'm sorry to hear that you are having some trouble installing yours. From what I understand, the installation procedures may vary depending on year, trim level, and frame length (long bed vs. short bed, etc). If I were in your position, I might try to use the front crossmember as a reference point and see if three mounting holes line up correctly. I apologize that my video could not be more helpful (especially since my tacoma is the short-bed version). Hopefully you will hear back from Cali-Raised soon.
Thanks! 😁 I definitely enjoy how much stronger these rock sliders are when compared to traditional running boards. There's absolutely no flex whatsoever. Now, I just need to find some rocks 🪨
I have little kids lol 😆. I chose "0" because they can double as a step for the little ones. Plus, when I wash the Tacoma, I can easily stand on them when I clean / polish / wax the paint on the roof 😆👍
Unfortunately, I do not know the exact weight for each rock slider. If I had to guess, I would say somewhere between 35-45 lbs each. So far, I haven't seen any compatibility issues with skid plates. I currently have a TRD Pro skid plate and a catalytic converter shield on my tacoma... no issues with these 😁. I hope this info helps! 👍
I mean, they are a bolt-on modification. It takes an hour or two to install them. So it would take an hour or two to remove them. You would just have to make sure that they are compatible with any future Tacomas you might have. 😁
I love when people swap the TRD sport wheels for the TRD pro so then I swap the sport wheels to my SR5 :)
Gotta take advantage when you can 🤣.
I still have my TRD Sport wheels tucked away, though. They do look good on the Tacoma, that's for sure 👍.
@@LevelUpMechanics they really do. I’ve got a “sport series” pre runner they had blacked out wheels stock. Mines a second gen ‘15 I traded for the new 2022 sport wheels.
Nice 👍. I bet those wheels look great on the 2nd Gen. Now, I'm going to have to do a Google image search 😁
Most impressive part is the layout of every bolt & nut! 🤯
Lol 😆 there were a lot of them... and I needed to make sure I had everything 🤣
Killer video, thanks!
No problem 😁👍. Hopefully the video was helpful!

Nice in depth install video for an already great looking truck

taco looks good!
Thanks! It's definitely a never-ending project 🤣.
Great video and certainly helps me decide on my next upgrade.
How are they holding up after almost a year now ?
I'm glad to hear that the video is helpful 😁 👍. So far, they are holding up as if they were still brand new. No rust, no blemishes, no issues of any kind.
I am very happy with the quality 😎

Thanks! I appreciate the encouragement 😁. My next two videos will be for the Tacoma and will be ready in a few weeks 👍.
Hope all is well. Miss seeing new videos from you buddy
I appreciate it 👍. I have been stuck for the past couple of months, working on a ton of projects for the Civic & Tacoma.

@@LevelUpMechanics awesome glad to hear was hoping all was well with you! You never know. Looking forward to new videos soon
Super cool video but only for short beds. Long bed are a different bolt pattern. Good job man.
I mean, technically, once you have that bottom 14mm bolt lined up with the rock slider and the frame (one for each side), all of the rest of the holes line up and become pretty self-explanatory.
I hope that this info helps and makes sense 😁
@@LevelUpMechanics that’s the problem. I don’t have the oval spot where the 14mm goes. I just emailed caliraisedLed to ask.
Oh wow, I see. What year is your Tacoma? Could you use the front crossmember as the "reference bolt" instead?
@@LevelUpMechanics 2021 double cab long bed. I’m also missing the 3/8 bolts. They sent me the washers and nuts but no bolts. 😡
Hopefully they will respond back soon and send you the missing hardware. Originally, I was missing the 4 short sleeves and 2 long sleeves for the vertical bolts. I sent an email, and they responded back within 24 hours. I received the hardware in the mail within 3-4 days...

looks good
Thanks! 😁 I definitely enjoy how much stronger these rock sliders are when compared to traditional running boards. There's absolutely no flex whatsoever.
Now, I just need to find some rocks 🪨
Im about to order these but cant decide between the 0 or 20. How did you decide between the two?
I have little kids lol 😆. I chose "0" because they can double as a step for the little ones.
Plus, when I wash the Tacoma, I can easily stand on them when I clean / polish / wax the paint on the roof 😆👍
@@LevelUpMechanicsVery valid points. I like the looks of the 20 sliders but the practically of the 0 degrees sliders. Hmm decisions. Lol.
@BoiseTDI it's definitely a hard choice 😆.
Weights each? Are they work good with skid plates too?
Unfortunately, I do not know the exact weight for each rock slider. If I had to guess, I would say somewhere between 35-45 lbs each.
So far, I haven't seen any compatibility issues with skid plates. I currently have a TRD Pro skid plate and a catalytic converter shield on my tacoma... no issues with these 😁.
I hope this info helps! 👍
If I were to sell my Tacoma in the future, is it easy to remove them and put on my next Tacoma?
I mean, they are a bolt-on modification. It takes an hour or two to install them. So it would take an hour or two to remove them.
You would just have to make sure that they are compatible with any future Tacomas you might have. 😁
@@LevelUpMechanics thanks!
Anytime! 😁👍
