Thats the exact setup Im looking for. I just bought some Rubi-rails off the forum, and soon the ACE sliders will follow. Did you have to do anything to the rubi-rails to make everything fit right?

I trimmed the length of the Rubi rails slightly when I went to a 35" tire. Other than that you don't need to modify anything to install the ACE rails.

In that photo I was on 33" tires.

Yep I went with LOD Since I'v been happy with their bumper. I have to say install was more labor intensive than I thought but nothing I could not handle. These things were 102Lbs shipped in ISO-Foam, freaking Heavy duty. Recommend you have a couple of propane tanks and 2x4's or Large textbooks to prop it up on when your marking the holes to tap.

I went with "or fab" and they are very strong. They weigh about 100lbs, give you a nice step and designed for you to cut your pinch seams.

I'm going with the RockHard 4X4 ones. They are body mount and pinch seem mount, hide the ugly pinch seam. come powder coated, and are 100% made in USA.

I agree the pinch seam is ugly. I'm not sure how tub mounted sliders would take heavy abuse vs a weld on or frame mounted slider though. It has been a topic of heated debate on this forum for some time.

Since I already have the LOD rock sliders I'm going to probably buy these.

Nemesis Industries JK Titan Tub Armor, 2 Door, Aluminum - 127200

*Edit* Hate the color would paint them black

NEMESIS INDUSTRIES JK TITAN TUB ARMOR, 2 DOOR, ALUMINUM - 127200

I'm not sure if they offer a rubber shroud/seal between, but dissimilar metal corrosion probably won't be an issue. Although you never know. I think this is the direction I'm going to take though.

I like your choice. MY Jk will never see rocks. I just want to replace the plastic side steps and still have a step and some rocker protection in parking lots LOL. Nemesis and LOD both make really nice products. I just want the nicest bolt on sliders I can get.
