I was just wanting to clarify if there was damage or not. Now back to the relevant thread to discuss. Not trying to stir anything up at all.

Thanks for the pics, could you tell us what rails you were running or were they just the rubicon rails? I can't gather this information from your first post, it sounds to me (and I may be wrong, hence the reason I am asking) like you were just running rubi rails, but you mention the ACE rails? Thanks for the clarification!

Imposter_LRF, please hear me out, i am not and was not being confrontational with you.
My rig is owned, maintained, and all components have been purchased by me using my hard earned money, and therefore it does not have to be all Rancho-ed out. I personally do not like the look of the Rancho Rock Gear and because my rig is not a Dynomax/Rancho sponsored rig, I have the right to choose which product I run as does every one else who owns a JK. I have a Dynomax exhaust because I truly believe it is the best I can buy. It's your JK, make it what YOU (the owner) want.
having said all that, i will now take the time to remind you that, as a sponsoring manufacturer rep here on JK-Forum, you are NOT allowed to promote manufacturers or vendors who are NOT sponsors of it:
https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/faq....ingnonsponsors
careful how you respond next. so far as i'm concerned, you've already crossed the line but i'd like to turn a blind eye to it being that we're having so much fun.
Please leave my friends and acquiantances out of an arguement about sliders, they are not relevant to the topic at hand
...which is the quality of ACE sliders, which I was agreeing with Ryanc on and then trying to rid some of the speculation in mattgt5's post.
If you would like, and the group would like, I can lift my rig up on the hoist here and take as many pictures as I can of the abuse marks on the ACE rails and the beautiful pinch seam in order to show that this dimple effect is not necessarily a common occurance, if it is an occurance at all.
"if it's an occurance at all". hell, even the guy who got the ball rolling on this thread, keithvegas has admitted that it's happen to him albeit he blames himself for it. man, you fanboys are just too much - god forbid that anything ace makes could possibly cause any problem.
You want pictures of my JK in action? Fine...Here are the ACE rails doing just fine (what I can find on my phone relatively quickly):
I apologize that I do not have any pictures off hand of me slamming them into anything more or close ups of them hitting anything, but I do not have the luxury of having a dedicated crew with me to film and/or get pictures. I will do my best next time if the group is interested enough to see these in action.

As for Nemesis sliders:
I understand that the Nemesis sliders have more than meets the eye, but as Mattgt5 clearly pointed out by his informative post, "The pinch seam or the bodyounts are not ideal for slider attachment." Show me where Nemesis bolts or welds to the frame (they can't weld...they're aluminum!). I never said that they weren't badass sliders, because THEY ARE! Nemesis is getting my money as soon as I can afford a set of their flares and sliders!!. I am just pointing out that his statement is false (obviously just in my opinion and this is a relatively "open" forum where thoughts and opinions can be expressed within the rules and regs that we signed up to). I just wanted to point out that not all sliders are made the same and that his statement is not necessarily true. Perhaps I got carried away because I get annoyed when things are hardly legible. I apologize for that and hope Mattgt5 could forgive me (or just rip on me about being a school marm).

so what. get a life and loosen up.
wait, wait, i think i'm getting it.... 
damn, i missed it 
why it is so important that you do is not only beyond me, it's kinda sad. just to reitterate, they're just products, not even ones that your company makes and far from an extension of your manhood... or are they 
funny, i wrote the rules and the only ones who can determine what is or isn't trolling are the moderators or myself. last i checked, you are neither.
of course you don't. your manhood is on the line and there's nothing comedic about that!! or is there?
damn, i missed it
And per the rules most of the posts here are considered trolling.
I just dont see the need for most of it, general discussion forums are still open for comedic relief. :dunno:
