Thanks for all the help. I appreciate everyone also giving some alternative options.
As for price. the OR-FAB are $399 from quadratec (not sure what shipping would be). I already called Shrockworks and their sliders would be $600 shipped to my door.

Yea ORF has GREAT prices for GREAT products, I back them 100%. I too have been trying to decide which sliders I want, ORF is def one of my options, got my front and rear bumpers from quadratec and I dont recall how much shipping was, I dont remeber it being too outrageous. Post picks once you get installed!

I'd say either one is a good choice. Has anyone seen Poison Spyders Ricochet Rockers for every other model but the JK. I wrote and asked if they would make some for the JK but no response on that so far. Take a look if you get the chance maybe you can have some made they look pretty cool.

shipping is going to be expensive! I just installed a set of LODs (I assume they are similar weight). They are HEAVY. They came in two boxes, each weighing over 100 pounds.

Have you checked out the Poison Spyder Rocker Knockers? I have them and they mount to the pinch seam along the 6 factory locations plus an additonal 7 or 8 spots along the bottom of the body tub. They are EXTREMELY SOLID!!
They work perfect if you ever want to add a body lift since their position will be unaffected by it. Whereas a frame mounted bar will leave a gap between the rail and the body after the lift. If you get the slider option they also tuck against the body very nicely to help aid in protection of the area below the bottom of the doors. They will also take the entire weight of a 4dr JK on a rock and I have heard guys have been winched sideways with a strap hooked to them!
Here are a few pics of mine in the raw steel form (they are getting powdercoated right now) as well as a few installed via pics I found.

looks like my body mount bracket. Someone needs to make skids for these.
