Default rock sliders

What aftermarket rock sliders will work with the stock Rubicon rock rails? I'd like a heavy duty rock slider but want to keep the Rubi rails on for looks. Anyone running this set up and have some pics?

Ace rails look great with the rubi rails. There are tons of pics of them on here.

Why keep the rails on for looks...? If you get good sliders, you won't need rails. Plus, rails will sell in a second on the billboard. Go with PSC, shrockworks, or LoD. I have LoD ordered now.

The stock Rubi rails don't weigh much at all and I like the way they cover up the pinch seam. They also are somewhat functional. I just need something else that will take a hit and protect the doors.

Being body mounted, can the ACE sliders take a hit and not bend up into the body?

That would be one heluva hit to bend the ACE rail into the body. They're pretty stout. I swear by 'em.
