Yes. These sliders are available for both Double Cab Short Bed and Double Cab Long Bed configurations.

Do these fit XtraCab Tacoma models?

No. These rock sliders are designed for Double Cab models only.

What is the Step Edition design?

The Step Edition uses a 0-degree flat-step design that gives you true rock slider protection with a more usable step surface for daily driving, passengers, and roof access.

Are these true rock sliders or just side steps?

These are true frame-mounted rock sliders built for rocker panel protection and trail use, not just cosmetic side steps.

Are these bolt-on rock sliders?

Yes. These are 100% bolt-on and require no drilling or cutting.

What are these rock sliders made from?

They are built from 1.75-inch DOM tubing with .120-inch wall thickness seamless construction, full 3/16-inch carbon steel frame plate coverage, and full gusseting.

Are kick out and no kick out options available?

Yes. You can choose between kick out and no kick out depending on your preferred look and trail use.

Are filler plate options available?

Yes. These sliders are available with no filler plate or with raw, powder coat, or bed liner filler plate options.

How much do these rock sliders weigh?

These sliders weigh approximately 125 lbs per set.

Do these rock sliders ship free?

Yes. All Cali Raised LED rock sliders include free shipping to the lower 48. These sliders ship via free LTL freight from our Fort Worth, TX facility — every set is wrapped, corner-protected, and palletized by hand so it arrives damage-free, with no shipping charge at checkout.

Can I install these rock sliders by myself?

Yes, but a helper or a floor jack makes it easier, since the sliders weigh approximately 125 lbs per set. Owners report installing solo by using jack stands to hold each slider in position while starting the bolts.

Where can I find installation instructions?

Cali Raised LED has separate installation videos for the Short Bed and Long Bed versions on YouTube. Watch the video that matches your bed length before you start.

What if a mounting hole doesn't line up?

There is plenty of adjustment built into the mounting points, so loosen the bolts and shift the part into position before tightening. If a hole still won't line up, contact Cali Raised LED support.

Do raw steel sliders need to be coated?

Yes, ideally right away. Raw steel has no protective finish, so you need to paint, powder coat or otherwise treat it to prevent rust. Choose a powder coat or bed liner finish if you don't want to coat them yourself.

Which way do the filler plates go?

Either way. Install them dimple-up for more traction and a more aggressive look, or dimple-down for a smoother top.

Do the filler plates rattle or clank when you step on them?

No. The filler plates do not rattle or clank when stepped on.

Is there a solid filler plate with no holes?

No. All filler plates use the dimpled hole pattern.

How do I touch up a chip or scratch in the powder coat?

Clean the area of dust and debris, then spray light, even coats of the Cali Raised LED Touch Up Powder Coat Spray (matte black BK-59, 12 oz). It is made for light to medium scratches on powder-coated surfaces only, not bed liner or raw steel.

Installation type: 100% bolt-on installation.

BK59 powder coat: Clean black finish with strong resistance against scratches, chipping, wear, and fading.
Polyurethane bed liner spray: Rugged, textured finish with added grip, especially useful on filler plate surfaces.
Warranty: 2-year warranty against manufacturing defects.

Both the Step Edition and Trail Edition are built as true frame-mounted rock sliders, not cosmetic steps. The main difference is the slider angle and how the vehicle will be used.

Choose Step Edition if you want:

A 0-degree flat rock slider
Better step usability
Easier entry and exit
Better footing for kids and passengers
Easier roof access
A better setup for daily driving, work trucks, and family use

Choose Trail Edition if you want:

An upward-angled rock slider: 25 degrees on Tacoma, 20 degrees on 4Runner
Better ground clearance
A tighter-to-body profile
A more aggressive off-road setup
A slider built more around technical trail performance

Quick comparison:

Step Edition is best for daily use, step function, passenger access, and practical protection. Trail Edition is best for added clearance, tighter body fitment, and trail-focused driving.

If your Tacoma or 4Runner sees more daily driving, passengers, roof access, or general-use duty, the Step Edition is the better fit. If it is built more for technical terrain and maximum clearance, the Trail Edition may be the better option.

How To Install Rock Sliders For 2024+ Toyota Tacoma

Watch the Short Bed or Long Bed video, then follow the written steps below to bolt Cali Raised LED Rock Sliders onto your 2024+ Toyota Tacoma Double Cab. These steps cover both the Step Edition (0-degree flat step) and the Trail Edition (25-degree angle).

Installation steps

Before you start: One person can do this with jack stands holding the slider, but a helper or a floor jack makes it easier (Step Edition is about 125 lbs per set; Trail Edition is about 45 lbs each). Tools: ratchet with 12 mm and 13 mm sockets and a socket for the M10 bolts, plus a screwdriver or plastic pry tool. Step Edition top plates also need a 7/16 in. socket and 5/32 in. Allen key, or a 1/2 in. socket and 3/16 in. Allen key. Hardware: 22 M10 bolts and 22 M10 washers. No drilling or cutting. Trail Edition install time is about 45 minutes. Raw steel sliders must be painted or coated right away to prevent rust.

Step 1: Remove the frame clips (screwdriver or plastic pry tool). Pop the plastic clips off the outside of the frame on both sides where the slider will mount.
Step 2: Remove the passenger ground bolt (12 mm socket). On the passenger-side frame, remove the ground cable bolt. Keep the bolt, it goes back in the same spot, and tuck the cable behind or on top of the frame out of the way.
Step 3: Install the top plates, Step Edition only (7/16 in. socket + 5/32 in. Allen, or 1/2 in. socket + 3/16 in. Allen). If you ordered filler plates, bolt them to the slider before mounting. Bed liner plates use 1/4 in. hardware; powder-coated plates use 5/16 in. Plates can go dimple-up for traction or dimple-down for a smoother top. Trail Edition has no top plates, so skip this step.
Step 4: Position the slider (jack stands). Set the passenger slider against the frame on jack stands so the frame plates line up with the threaded holes in the frame.
Step 5: Start the corner bolts (by hand). Thread two M10 bolts with washers into the front holes and two into the rear holes. Leave them loose so the slider can still shift.
Step 6: Reinstall the ground bolt (12 mm socket). Pull the ground cable down and put the original bolt back in its exact location.
Step 7: Fill the remaining holes (by hand). Work along the slider and put an M10 bolt and washer into every remaining threaded hole. If a hole doesn't line up, loosen the bolts and shift the slider into position.
Step 8: Tighten the passenger side (socket). Once every bolt is hand-tight, tighten them all down to the frame.
Step 9: Install the driver side (same tools). Repeat Steps 4, 5, 7 and 8: two rear and two front bolts first, then fill every threaded hole, hand-tighten, and tighten everything down. There is no ground bolt on this side.

Final check: Confirm all 22 M10 bolts and washers are installed and tight, the passenger ground bolt is back in its original spot, and the ground cable is clear of the slider. Coat raw steel sliders right away. Questions? support@caliraisedled.com or 888-385-5036.

Sliders are GREAT !!!!

These sliders arrived very well packaged. They were definitely locked down to the pallet. The finish is excellent. I got mine with the slider powder coated and the top plate in bed liner. The install is pretty straight forward. Other than 2 odd screws that were in the package. They were in the install video as well but never seen him install them so oh well. The worst part about the install was the top plates kinda had to bend them a little to flatten them out. Than the 9 million screw they took to install. I'm fat staying bent over like that is hard to breath or hold your breath through that many screws and nuts. But otherwise I would definitely recommend these to anybody that needs them or just wants the best.

Happy but only after some major install issues.

The wait time was more than I anticipated even after seeing the notification of long lead times. I have to give them props for giving some compensation for the excessive wait time.
Having slightly larger holes would help with fitment. Had a hard time getting the front drivers side away from the pinch weld. Eventually had to use washers to add space away from the truck.
Need to update pictures and instalation video for the new sliders they are now making.

Really good quality and everything

Really good quality and everything lined up perfectly. Very sharp and have gotten lots of compliments on them.

Solid addition

Great step slider that adds protection and makes getting in the truck much easier.

Easy install & good looks

Install was easy and straightforward (just make sure to bolt the front first). The powder coat & bed liner step look sharp, and complements the fenders, OEM roof rack, and sports bar.

I was able to mount solo using some jack stands to help hold up and position; it would have cut install time down if I had a friend come over to help.

Had some difficulties installing due

Had some difficulties installing due to changes in hardware so it didn’t match the online videos or include any type of instructions. I had to remove the drivers side and install my own provided washers to keep the rails from hitting the front pinch weld. Also the top plate makes a clank sound every time I step on them as the top plate taps the top of the slider. Overall build and finish seems very nice. They are very heavy. Just could use a little tweaking with instructions and fitment.

These things are tough and

These things are tough and make the truck. Definitely need help to get them installed. But once you have a couple bolts treaded you’re good to go. Everything thing lined up perfect and the online videos helped out a ton. Steps were delivered very quick and they were packaged perfectly. No damage and all the parts were there.

I just installed the step-edition sliders with the step plates. Love the solid construction and how straightforward the process is, although I did have a very capable helper. The sliders look great on the truck and the step function is so helpful!

Now I have to also comment on the orientation of the step plates. Several reviewers mentioned the front ends bender upward slightly and someone went as far as drilling holes to hold them down with an additional bolts. However, I installed the plates with the protruding edge along the holes on the upside so the tension the plates came with is able to hold the front ends down well. Added benefit: the raised edges look nice and they will provide additional friction when these steps are muddied up.

Question to Cali Raised: all your pictures show the installed plates with the raised edges downward and the front ends bending upward slightly, so I am curious as to what your intended plate orientation is by design?

Thanks for the detailed review! Glad you’re happy with the solid construction, straightforward install, and added step functionality. One of the nice things about our step plates is that you can install the dimpled edge facing up or down depending on the look and function you prefer. We appreciate you sharing your setup and experience with other Tacoma owners.

Cali Raised Rock Sliders - 2026 Tacoma TRD Pro

Solid sliders. They look good and add to the appearance of the truck. Bolt holes lined up perfectly with the frame threads. The sliders do not interfere with the 2 ground wires at all.

I followed the Cali Raised tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kc72Xt3CsOs

I'm 72 years old with multiple old athletic injuries and not flexible. Work was done alone in my driveway in 90+ heat and high humidity. If I can do it, you can do it. I would recommend using a partner if available. Getting the first bolt in can be a bit tedious. I would recommend using a thread chaser (M10 x 1.25 pitch), especially if the threads are dirty. I just used an extra bolt to make sure the threads in the frame were OK.

Sliders were ordered on Jun 17, 2026 and delivered on a pallet to Georgia on July 7, 2026. (21 days). The packaging was outstanding.

Great steps/sliders

I needed some steps because it was tough for me getting in my truck without having to pull myself up and across the seat. Shipping was pretty quick and packaging was done nicely. Installed the steps today and a few of the holes didn’t line up quite right on the driver side parts. I just left two screws out of the top plate because I didn’t feel like drilling two holes for those. One of the mounting holes to the frame didnt line up as well. I used one of the factory bolts and was able to get it bolted up securely.

Perfect fit and high quality

These were super easy to install by myself and all the holes lined up perfectly for the hardware. I’m really impressed by the quality of these sliders and they should hold up to some abuse on the trails. My wife loves them—she has a nice step now and doesn’t have to climb into my truck! I got the optional top plates with the bed liner coating. My only small gripe is that the front of the top plates flare up a bit and don’t sit flush. They probably should have put an extra fastener there to pull it down. Other than that, they’re perfect.

Solid slides ,easy installation did it by myself with a floor jack and stands, if you get the plate on top he aware it will create some wind noise I took mine off and I think it looks better without.

Slider W/Kickout

Great quality I ordered with the the step cover ,just be aware it does cause wind noise, I removed them .. I think it looks better without them anyways

driver's side slider was warped and mounting holes didn't totally line up

I have to be honest and give these a 4/5. they seem extremely sturdy and solid and well built, however mine came with what apparently was a known manufacturing issue with the mounting holes. the hole on one of the drivers side slider did not line up with the holes on the frame, and the slider couldn't be installed as is. i had to drill out the metal at one of the mounting holes in order to put the bolt in. i emailed cali raised about this and they mentioned "the welding table was getting warped from the heat and causing the frame plate to shift." .. i was told this has since been corrected, but it was frustrating to email the company and to basically be told it was a known issue. i think it would've been better to email customers that may be affected with a warning about this, so i didn't have to go through hours of wasted troubleshooting trying to get the issue sorted out.

I will also mention that the filler plate is a bit warped towards the very front and folders up, just like you see in the picture on the site, which can likely be addressed by bending it prior to installation. i didn't realize this prior to install and will now have to take these off and hand bend the filler plates to address that if i decide i actually care enough. not a big deal, but probably helpful for others to know prior to install.

No valid instructions, but simpler than video.

The GOOD news: These sliders are great.

The BAD news: These sliders ship with zero installation instructions, just a link to a video that is out-of-date to how they are manufactured now.

More GOOD news: The sliders are simpler to install than the video shows.

Mine shipped with 11 hex-head machine screws per side. (no spares, so be gentle with the threads). They line up with 11 threaded holes in your Tacoma's frame.

I suggest making sure each one of these holes is in good shape before you're trying to muscle a 70lb chunk of metal up to them. I ran one of the screws into each hole (with some goop on it) to clear out any road grime and undercoating spray. If they don't go easily, I'd run a tap through them first. (M10 x 1. 25).

The tolerances on this engineering marvel are pretty tight. If something is 0. 25" off, you would need to enlarge a hole. You will NOT be able to stretch steel. But mine went together fine. Just go slow and careful.

They look great. I'm happy with the purchase. A little over 7 weeks to get them. No valid installation instructions, but easier than I was predicting.

Nice product. Wish the step

Nice product. Wish the step was flatter. On the large end I drilled and taped two more holes on the outside edge to pull it down better. After that I’m very happy with them.

Good product. Confusing install instructions.

Good product. Confusing install instructions. Hardware could be better labeled.

The fit and finish is

The fit and finish is awesome. The shipping packaging protected the item perfectly! Installation was a breeze. I installed it in about an hour in my driveway with just hand tools.

Great product, fit is spot

Great product, fit is spot on. Shipping timeline was way off

Straight forward, easy installation!

Straight forward, easy installation!

Paint it quickly if ordering in a raw finish

Easy to install with a helping hand, maybe CaliRaised can mimic Toyotas little bolt hook/slot feature seen on the Trailhunter skid plates and predator steps to make it even easier to install and uninstall for service, cause with bashed up sliders, I'd pull them off to rattle can a fresh coat to keep em from rusting, that being said. If you order RAW, be prepared to paint your sliders immediately before they flash rust on you. You do not want to go rust busting as a punishment for not priming it.

Excllent Experience and Quality rails

From ordering to delivery the team at Caliraised always answered my questions. I order the rock sliders step edition for my 24 Tacoma. It took a little longer than planned, however that was due to them updating the rails and how they mount. They were shipped and when arrived were packaged and wrapped to protect everything. Upon opening the welds , fit and finish was spot on. With the new design mounting to the tacoma was simple and staright forward. Great product from a great company!!!

Really love the powder coated

Really love the powder coated with the fill plates and kick out. I had them shipped to a shop to have them installed and they claimed they had to drill and slightly widen the holes to attach the fill plates to the slider unfortunately. The passenger side plate has the slightest curve up at the very front of it. Wish it didn't, but its still perfectly fine. If not for that, this is a 5 star slider imo. (Haven't bashed on them yet)

Great-looking, high-quality rock sliders that

Great-looking, high-quality rock sliders that double as rails that let you easily step in/out of my lifted Tacoma.
