I just received my ace rock rails and I absolutely love them. I have a 1.25" body lift on my jku and when I tried to install the sliders it seems to hit the 2 bolts that hold the puck to the body mount.
Has anyone installed these sliders with a bodylift??
If so do I need to get a longer bolt for the center to hold the slider on or do I need to do something to the bolts on the bodylift pucks themselves.
Any info is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Guys

 

Call ACE directly. They work best when used in conjunction with factory Rubicon sliders.

 

Yes. I sent them an email last night after hours so I will wait to hear back or I'll call them later on.
Also I have factory rubi sliders already mounted. They mount to a different location than the ace sliders do.

 

No luck. Tried the mfg. that makes the body lift and they dont make a longer bolt. Anyone else have any ideas

 

Yes. Remove the body lift and get a leveling kit, budget boost, or a real lift.

Body lifts are horrible when it comes to compatibility with other mods.

 

Yes. Been thinking about removing it. And I already have a 3" teraflex long arm kit. Just wanted that 1.25 more. I may have to wait till after winter to remove and install the steps

 

What type of tire carrier are you planning to use? Many of the aftermarket bumper/carrier combos are also incompatible with body lifts because they have to line up at exact places on the tailgate.

I think you're doing the right thing if you remove the body lift. While they can certainly provide one extra inch of space in the fender wells, I just don't think they're worth the headaches you'll have when you try to do other mods (like the steps and carriers).

Remove the body lift, install the 3" TF lift, install your steps, and then maybe install some flat fender flares to gain additional room to bury your tires when flexing.

In the end, you'll be happier, I promise!

 

For that extra inch or so you could also add a spacer to the suspension if you really feel the need. But I agree with the above, ditch the body lift.
