2025+ R1S Gen II early vs Gen II current - Explained for Rock Sliders

[EV Sportline]

Did you all realize Rivian has 2 revisions of the 2025+ R1S?

Early Style Gen II - 2025 R1S launch up to VIN is PRIOR to ******056700, around October 1st).

Current Style Gen II - Later October thru today.

The difference is some center bolts - shaded here in the images - you either have them or not!

Happy to help anyone identify which Gen II you have, PM me!

So we have 2 versions of the Rock Sliders for Gen II

We have a few of the 'early gen II versions left, HERE', moving forward we updated to a version that fits BOTH early and current Gen II.

I think I'm a Gen I Gen2. Even though I picked up in Nov, I think I ordered near the end of September. Looking at your link now. Thanks.

for newbies wondering:

Will these rock sliders get in the way of the gen 2 puck points. I'm also assuming these will work with the 2026 rivians?

They do, the puck points are completely covered. But it doesn't matter because you can now use the rock slider itself to jack up the vehicle. and I've been to rivian SC plenty of times, and they havent' said anything at all, so should be fine.

Good catch. All a fan of rapid innovation, but these mid-year model changes are going to affect tinkerers and DIY-ers for years to come.

Our latest version fits the newest model Rivians. We work on making sure new versions are backwards compatible.
