I'm considering rock sliders too and like all these suggestions. Someone else suggested to me a few questions:
1) Do you want made in the USA or care if it comes from China
2) Do you want them to attach to the body (seam) or frame. Frame is stronger.
3) Do you want steps, or just protection
4) Do you care how long it takes them to arrive, because some take much longer
5) and of course, how much do you want to spend.
After going through these, you can narrow your choices down.

I just got my LoD's delivered all the way to Australia and all I can say is they are rock solid, didn't look at any others as I have wanted these forever, can't wait to fit them...

Default Jeep Swag Rubi

I just picked up a set of Rubi and plan to buy the jeepswag.com mod, I have seen it in action and very impressed.

I love my shrockworks and trust me I use them; they need to be touched up as a matter of fact. There are other brands that are also good. If you are going to use them to keep rocks off your Jeep they better be one of the good ones. The last thing you want is to put it up on a rock and it bends up into your body panels. If they are just for looks get the one you think looks the best.

Installed my lod sig sliders couple weeks ago. Install was fun and pretty easy, sliders seem perfect - dragged over a rock this weekend just to "see" and all seemed well. Look great.

I personally went with or-fab. Just get the brand you like. Almost all of theones produced will do fine.

For all of y'all running the ACE Rails....Do you lose a lot of ground clearance since they sit lower than the Rubi rails?
