Thanks for the reply!
there are only 3 you need, 17/32, 25/32 and i cant remember the other one. but you can find it if you download the instructions online. just make sure you have a drill with a chuck big enough to hold them. and that they are long enough. its a pain in the a$$ drilling those dang holes.

Thanks man! I definitely have a drill with a big enough chuck. I'm hoping that Homedepot will have the sizes but I doubt it From looking at prices online, it seems that I'm gonna have to spend a nice chunk of change on bits lol

Yikes.... I'm gonna have to track them down around here for sure. Good thing I have some extra cash from selling my used suspension parts and old YJ bumpers lol.

But thanks for all the good info man!!! You helped me out a lot

yes the rock sliders were discontinued. They were not selling so once the last one was sold we stopped making them.

I just looked at a craftsman drill set I bought a sears hardware and it has the sizes you need. It is their cobalt drill set, comes in a black case and they are gold anodized bits. Bought em last summer to drill out some case hardened bolts that broke off and they cut threw em like they were butter. The set cost me $70 (around that) and there are 16 bits in the set. Its for drilling out steel for easy out installation so its the odd sizes. Just though I'd let ya ll know.

i have one uni-bit/step bit that can drill all the holes, whoever said they spent 40 dollars a bit or over 100 on all 3 just didnt do their research and bought the first thing they found...and wasted their money...
