Hi Caveman, There have been multiple forum members including myself who have reached out to them and provided them information about the Grenadier and they told all of us that they are not supporting the Grenadier. DaBull

BTW, my mom is now 95 and can still climb in and out easily!

Hi Caveman, Thanks for your continued input and photos. Seeing the two photos side by side is very helpful and your comments about it being fit for overlanding vs rock crawling is on point. I would be interested to know the ground clearance height from the ground to the top of the lower horizontal tube if you have the time. Perhaps you could measure it at the blunt end or the tube to catch an accurate measurement vs having to use a level. That way I would know the step height if I added my mod idea twist to to your mod. Thanks in advance and keep the comments coming. DaBull
Here are the measurements but keep in mind I have fitted 295 70 17 tires so my car is lifted.
Thanks Caveman, Thanks for the photos and measurements and for pointing out the tire mod, I will make the necessary calc change.
Hi re100516, Here's a modification that @Caveman did for adding a step to his Grenadier Rock Sliders. I like his modification alot. DaBull

I see you went with 295s versus the 285s mentioned earlier in the thread.
Hi DaBull. I saw the mod by Caveman and like that as well. I was just looking at an option that does not alter the lower bar, which provides a lot of the protection under the sill as AnD3rew pointed out. I think adding the nerf bar on the side would allow for a step and provide additional side protection and not remove any protection from the sill. Once I get my truck it will be easier to see which is the best option. ThanksHi re100516, Here's a modification that @Caveman did for adding a step to his Grenadier Rock Sliders.

GrenX Factory rock slider modified into side step
Hello everyone, just sharing how i modifed my rock sliders to work as a step. I have extended mine out by 40mm and covered with checkerplate which will be powder coated black in the new year. We are now offering this modification service to our clients in Melbourne. And full replacement...
That’s kinda what I was thinking as well, not modify the factory slider tube, but maybe add an additional parallel tube to the outside just to give more space for a “perch” for the toe of your foot to step on. Could add some grip tape to it or maybe add checker plate supported from the two tubes. I don’t have the fabrication tools to do this, just thinking of solutions.
Exactly. The "step" on my LR4 rock sliders is made with square tube and I put grip tape on top. You are in SoCal so check out Tactical4x4 (https://tactical4x4.com/index.php/product/lr3-lr4-rock-sliders/). That's where I got my LR sliders before moving up to WA. They are a small shop and might do some custom work for you. The owner is a very nice guy.
Awesome.
Can the step be removed or is the rock sliding element now superfluous?
