Shopping Around (rock-sliders)
I just wanted to share my experience I had yesterday as I was shopping around for a set of Ace Rock Sliders (bolt-on) for my 2012 4dr. I spent the better half of the afternoon calling around, sending out emails and private messages to most of the authorized dealers of ACE products. From reading and lurking around this forum, I knew the price range the sliders go for (actual cost) is a steal, but the cost of shipping them is a problem. Some members are seeing shipping add $40-$100+ to the total cost. So after hearing back from most of venders I contacted, one of them gave me the price I was looking for.
I sent Jason from Rebel-OffRoad , who is a sponsoring vender of JK-Forum, a message via PM. He shot me back a quote for the sliders within minutes, which was easily $30-40 lower then all the other venders I contacted. Rebel Off-Road was able to ship me my sliders across the US for about the cost of a cheap case of beer. I spoke with Jason over the phone and he also threw in some free swag!
I just wanted to share my experience that I had with Jason and Rebel-OffRoad, and to publicly thank them for making my first major modification a positive one. Can't wait to get the sliders on!

HAHA now now. We don't ask magicians how they do their tricks. Pricing is a factor of product plus shipping cost. Please PM us at your convenience for a quote. We will never send an unsolicited PM.

Rocksiders on! No major problems on the install. Two of the body bolts needed tapped out with a hammer. Amazed with the quality of sliders and the price was just right. Purchased a grinder ( for the washers) with the money I saved!

Thanks for sharing. Planning to buy a pair for my 4-dr 2013 Rubi when it comes in (hopefully before turkey day), now I know where I'll be buying from! Will send a PM once I receive my new ride.

Looks good, I'll keep that in mind when I get ready to purchase some.
