Through the use of an adjustable set of stainless steel cleats that are uniquely tailored to each access point along the cab \u0026amp; bed, we are able to provide a sure footing regardless of weather condition, debris or incline, while preventing injury or damage to footwear. The placement of the TerraCleats allows confident traction when stepping onto them, while also preventing unintentional contact or injury by grazing against the side of the outer rails. The TerraCleat system provides dependable all-weather traction for surefooted access to the vehicle and your gear, both on the trail and day-to-day. Emphasizing family safety and ease of entry to the cab and your gear, adventures are made smoother and worry-free.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAesthetics are cared for with direct-match finish to the OEM trim in color, texture and sheen, and is given longevity by an abrasion-resistant and corrosion-inhibiting base coat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConstructed of a main beam of 2\"x3\"x.188 wall steel oriented in its strong axis, we are able to achieve a 13% greater strength than a heavier 1\/4\" walled material laid flat in its weak axis, with a 22% weight savings. By orienting the beam just outside the pinch weld of the body panels, we are able to increase the ground clearance of the main beam, and offset the outer rail upwards for higher clearance than a conventional frame-mounted rock slider is capable of. The outer rail is CNC formed from high strength.188 wall DOM tubing, and includes a rear kickout to protect the sidewalls of the rear tires from damage, and to offer a larger rear step portion for bed, rack, and tent\/camper access.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConnecting the main beam to the frame plates is a system of 2\" square beams in.250\" and.188\" wall thicknesses, supported by.375\" and.250\" gussets which have been applied to the maximum possible geometry available. All frame mounting hardware in the impact\/tension side is used in triplicate and duplicate arrangement for increased clamp load and failure-proof redundancy. Mounting points are keyed against the frame via the hardware to prevent frame slippage under extreme impacts, and installation is made faster and easier via careful planning of mounting locations and hardware access.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComplete Kit Weight, Base Sliders: 133lbs per side\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComplete Kit Weight, w\/ complete top plate and TerraCleats: 145lb per side\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTrue measured-weight Comparisons:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhite Knuckle.188 wall option, no top plate: 145lb per side (stated 125lb)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhite Knuckle.120 wall option, no top plate: 135lb per side (stated 115lb)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dethloff Manufacturing","offers":[{"title":"Base Slider Kit (No Top Plate) \/ Crew Cab Shortbed","offer_id":46215418609862,"sku":"RS-14 CCSB","price":2299.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Add Top Plate + TerraCleat System \/ Crew Cab Shortbed","offer_id":46215418642630,"sku":"RS-14-TC CCSB","price":2799.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Base Slider Kit (No Top Plate) \/ Mega Cab Shortbed","offer_id":46215418675398,"sku":null,"price":2299.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Base Slider Kit (No Top Plate) \/ Crew Cab Longbed","offer_id":46215418708166,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Base Slider Kit (No Top Plate) \/ Regular Cab Longbed","offer_id":46215418740934,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Add Top Plate + TerraCleat System \/ Mega Cab Shortbed","offer_id":46215418773702,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Add Top Plate + TerraCleat System \/ Crew Cab Longbed","offer_id":46215418806470,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Add Top Plate + TerraCleat System \/ Regular Cab Longbed","offer_id":46215418839238,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0711\/2733\/5110\/files\/aaf43d4e-IMG_E3951-scaled.jpg?v=1784942781","url":"https:\/\/www.dethloffmfg.com\/products\/xhd-rock-sliders-2014-ram-2500-3500","provider":"Dethloff Manufacturing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
