All-Pro APEX Rock Sliders – 2007-2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser

All-Pro APEX Rock Sliders – 2007-2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser

Protect the rocker panels and vulnerable lower body of your Toyota FJ Cruiser with the All-Pro Off-Road APEX Rock Sliders, built as true frame-mounted armor for serious off-road use.

The APEX sliders combine heavy-duty 1.75" x .120-wall DOM tubing, fully gusseted 2" square mounting legs, substantial 3/8" mounting plates, and full-length dimple-die top plates to provide serious rocker-panel protection without sacrificing valuable ground clearance.

All-Pro's signature rear kick-out design helps push the FJ Cruiser away from rocks and other obstacles before they reach the vulnerable rear quarter-panel area, while the upward-angled profile keeps the sliders tucked close to the body for improved trail clearance.

Choose between Bare Steel for customers who want to apply their own finish or Black Powder Coat for a ready-to-install finished slider.

True Rock Sliders – Not Just Side Steps

There is a significant difference between a running board and a true rock slider.

The All-Pro APEX sliders are designed as structural, frame-mounted off-road armor capable of taking substantial trail impacts while protecting the FJ Cruiser's rocker panels and lower body.

When navigating difficult terrain, the sliders help protect against contact with:

• Rocks

• Ledges

• Stumps

• Deep ruts

• Washouts

• Uneven terrain

• Other trail obstacles

Instead of allowing these obstacles to make direct contact with the rocker panel or lower door area, the slider takes the impact and transfers the load through its heavy-duty mounting structure.

All-Pro APEX Rear Kick-Out

One of the defining features of the APEX rock sliders is All-Pro's signature rear kick-out design.

The outer slider gradually extends farther outward as it approaches the rear of the vehicle.

When the FJ Cruiser slides alongside a rock or other obstacle, the kick-out can help push the body away from the obstacle before it reaches the vulnerable rear quarter-panel area.

The gradual design allows the slider to continue moving across the obstacle rather than creating an abrupt extension that can become a snag point.

The kick-out also creates a wider stepping area toward the rear of the vehicle.

Heavy-Duty 1.75" DOM Tubing

The APEX slider structure is manufactured from:

1.75" diameter x .120-wall DOM tubing

DOM—or Drawn Over Mandrel—tubing provides excellent strength and dimensional consistency, making it particularly well suited for structural off-road components expected to withstand significant impacts.

This isn't lightweight tubing added simply to create the appearance of a rock slider. The APEX system is engineered as functional body protection for trail use.

Full-Length Dimple-Die Top Plates

A major feature distinguishing the APEX sliders from more basic rock-slider designs is the use of full-length dimple-die top plates.

These plates provide several benefits:

• Increased coverage between the inner and outer slider tubes

• Additional rocker-panel protection

• Larger stepping surface

• Improved footing

• Easier access to roof racks and rooftop cargo

• Distinctive APEX appearance

For FJ Cruisers equipped with roof racks, rooftop tents, cargo boxes, or other roof-mounted equipment, the larger stepping surface can be especially useful.

Heavy-Duty Frame Mounting

A rock slider is only as strong as the structure connecting it to the vehicle.

All-Pro uses fully gusseted 2" square mounting legs connected to substantial 3/8" mounting plates.

This creates a rigid connection between the slider assembly and the FJ Cruiser's frame.

The reinforced mounting structure helps distribute trail impacts into the frame rather than allowing those forces to reach the vehicle's rocker panels and lower body.

Supports the Weight of the Vehicle

The All-Pro APEX sliders are designed for more than occasional contact with a trail obstacle.

Their heavy-duty construction allows the sliders to support the weight of the vehicle, an important characteristic for a true rock slider.

This allows the FJ Cruiser to slide across obstacles on the slider rather than the rocker panel taking the impact.

The slider can also provide a suitable lifting location when using appropriate off-road lifting equipment and proper vehicle-lifting procedures.

Angled for Maximum Ground Clearance

The APEX outer slider structure angles upward toward the FJ Cruiser's body.

This keeps the slider tucked close to the vehicle and helps preserve valuable ground clearance.

On technical trails, maximizing clearance underneath the rocker-panel area can help the FJ Cruiser move across obstacles without becoming unnecessarily hung up.

Functional Side Step

Although the APEX is designed first and foremost as a true rock slider, it also provides a useful stepping surface.

The combination of the outer tube and full-length dimple-die top plate makes it easier to:

• Enter and exit the FJ Cruiser

• Reach a roof rack

• Load rooftop cargo

• Access a rooftop tent

• Secure recovery equipment

• Clean the roof of the vehicle

This makes the APEX sliders equally useful on daily-driven FJ Cruisers and dedicated trail builds.

Choose Bare Steel or Black Powder Coat

Both versions use the same heavy-duty APEX slider design. The difference is the exterior finish.

Bare Steel – AP-306633

Choose the bare-steel version if you plan to apply your own finish.

Bare sliders are a good choice when you want:

• Custom powder coating

• Custom paint

• Color matching

• A specific coating already used elsewhere on your build

• Greater control over the final appearance

Because bare steel has no corrosion-resistant exterior coating, it should be properly prepared and finished before prolonged exposure to moisture and the elements.

Black Powder Coat – AP-306632

Choose the black powder-coated version if you want a finished slider that's ready for installation.

The black finish provides a clean appearance that works particularly well with the FJ Cruiser's factory black trim while helping protect the steel from normal environmental exposure.

Direct Bolt-On Installation

The All-Pro APEX sliders attach directly to the FJ Cruiser's factory threaded frame mounting holes.

No frame drilling is required.

All-Pro includes the required Class 10.9 metric mounting hardware.

The bolt-on design provides a strong frame-mounted installation without requiring permanent welding or drilling into the vehicle frame.

Ideal for Trail & Overland FJ Cruisers

The combination of rocker-panel protection, heavy-duty frame mounting, rear kick-out, high-clearance profile, and usable top plate makes the APEX sliders well suited for FJ Cruisers used for:

• Rock crawling

• Technical trails

• Overlanding

• Backcountry exploration

• Camping

• Hunting

• Off-road recreation

• Daily driving

• Expedition-style builds

Whether you're protecting a dedicated trail rig or adding armor to a daily-driven FJ Cruiser before heading off pavement, the APEX sliders provide substantial protection for one of the vehicle's most vulnerable body areas.
