Great quality and easy install
These fit like no other but are expensive. I prefer to buy American-made. The finish and fit truly complete my XJ.

Which Cherokees do they fit?
They fit the 1984-2001 Jeep Cherokee XJ, 2 door and 4 door.
Will they fit my long arm suspension?
They fit without modification on all short arm suspensions and on long arm setups from BDS, Rock Krawler, Rough Country, TeraFlex, TNT, Iron Rock and Clayton. Suspensions with brackets outside the uniframe or on the pinch seam may need modification.
How do they install?
They attach with 13 bolts per side and are easy to install, though drilling is required.
What are they made of?
3" x 2" x 3/16" box tubing with 1 3/4" angled round outer tubing.
Powdercoat or bare steel?
Powdercoat is satin textured black over zinc primer. Bare steel lets you finish it your way, so get it coated soon after delivery to prevent surface rust.

should've put them in before bashing both sides of my xj but oh well. they sit pretty tight! pinch seams were mangled so had to get a little creative otherwise install was pretty easy.
First of all, these are built very solid. The finish is nice and welds are good. I did however have issues with fitment with my Ruffstuff frame stiffeners though. I clicked the box for frame stiffeners and I believe I recieved the correct product because in outward dimensions, it was spaced correctly. What was not listed is that if you have that lip on the top of your stiffeners that goes along your floorboards, you will not be able to allign the mounting plates flush without modification to the sliders. I had to cut the top of the mounting plates down halfway across the top holes, then drill new holes to replace those. Not the worst thing but kind of annoying. I dont expect them to know everything but it would be nice if it was acknowledged that with some stiffeners, you will have fitment issues. Otherwise, great product.
These have held up great off-road, and have protected the jeep in many rocky and tight trail situations. I wish I had got these sooner! My only problem is the powder coating didn't even last 3 mo the before they started rusting "this was before off-road too". Overall, I am pleased and will buy more products for both jeeps. I wish they offered these for the Comanche too "and more products in general". -Ben
I've had these on my 99 XJ for about a year now, and they are exactly what I had hoped they would be: Solid, good looking and easy to install by myself. An added benefit is the tubing gives me just enough of a step to be able to access a roof-mounted cargo dealie without performing any wild acrobatics. Fit is excellent and build quality is exactly what I expected after being amazed by the JCR rear bumper I got the year before. I am a loyal JCR fan and am now waiting for my Vanguard winch bumper to arrive - If you need armor or anything else these folks make, don't hesitate and you won't regret it. Customer service is top notch as well!
Great looking product...looks are not everything unless your buying this stuff! tough, durable and well planned out ! Thanks for putting out quality products.
Very happy with my Classic Sliders. They are built like a tank and just what my XJ needed to protect her rockers! Installation was a breeze! If you are looking for a quality set of sliders you've come to the right place. Thanks JCR! mikehyman
Received my sliders at work. Waited a day to tear open the box. These parts are well made, nice and heavy, great welds. Getting them home was an adventure. I work in downtown Los Angeles, and I live in Lake Arrowhead. I take the redline subway, and then hop on Metrolink. Door to Door is about a solid two hours. Did I mention these sliders are heavy? I even managed to drop them a few times waiting for my trains. They sure are loud when they hit the floor. They took it like a boss. Nobody offered to help. LA commuters are pansies. When I finally got them home, I had nice Popeye arms. You should really mention the unlimited health benefits of carrying these sliders through rush hour commute. And hey, nobody tried to mug me either. I looked so bad ass carrying these heavy metal rock crushers. I might just do it every day. Well, once I have them installed, commuting just won't be the same. Next up, getting your front bumper on the subway. Stay Jeepy my friends.
Hi, everyone thought I would share my experience on these sliders. Purchased them from 4wheel parts about a week ago, bought the bare metal version because I wanted them powered coated a different finish, not the wrinkled finish.
So far I love how heavy duty these are the protection the seam to offer. They go pretty far out and high which is great for protection "bad for drag". The directions say push up against the uni-rail up to the xj floor, but I would leave a gap from the floor. Not sure if if it's my XJ or the rail design but the sliders stick out more on the front than on the back end, on both driver and passenger sides. It is also extremely difficult to make it exactly even, Ididnt do it. I'm pretty OCD with stuff like that so I have to live with it. I personally think installation was difficult for what the tasks appears to be. Its a lot my fault, but I think if the slider's design was adjusted slightly it could be more easily installed. Make sure you line up everything correctly before drilling. and to be sure, before you start drilling measure the distances between holes on the slider and make sure that matches up with pen marks you make on your XJ.
I would recommend these sliders to anyone who is in the market for sliders! These have saved the rockers on my XJ numerous times! Welds looks great fitment was great installation was pretty straight forward. I was able t install these by my self with the help of a floor jack. These are definitely a must if you plan on wheeling your XJ! mmcrae
These sliders were really what my Cherokee needed to protect my Jeep on the trail. Solid built construction, nice welds and easy install. Really adds to the look of my Cherokee. Thanks for the great product!
