Default Best Rock rails for the money???

Hey all,

I have a 4dr JK and need to remove my stock sidesteps for the Jamboree i'm registered for.


Which ones would you recommend that wont' break the bank?

I would like some that i could kind of step on to help when removing the tops etc....

I considered just getting the stock RUBI rails but that wont allow me to step on them......what about the Rugged Ridge Rock Sliders?


Suggestions?

I'm looking at the tomken machine 2x6 rocker guards. They are similar to the stock steps but steel.

i think the evo's are great if you can weld. I doubt there is anything out there better then that. For the money.

If your looking at body mount, purejeep wins hands down, if your looking at a frame mount Los and evo make really nice ones

Could always get Rubi ones and put the steps back on when rock protection is not needed. Yeah it doesnt have a step but figure only $100-$200 for Rubi take-offs..... shoundnt take but 15 minutes to swap them back and forth
