Hey guys, anyone have these?
OR-FAB 84342 - OR-FAB Rear Quarter Armor with Rock Slider for 07-14 Jeep® Wrangler Unlimited JK 4 Door - Quadratec
I'm looking for input on these with or without the tube slider (without slider is about $70 cheaper). I would do this mod to delete the rear factory lights (to go to a flush mount light) and to gain some side protection. I'm going to have about 350 to spend after xmas. It's either these, TF tire carrier, or a new rear driveshaft. I have a RR tire carrier now and I'm ok with it for now. I'm weary of putting a heavy 37/13.50 on a TF carrier, and my DS is still in good shape. Therefore I'm looking at getting the rear corner guards. My only problem is the $350 will be with Quadratec, so I have to get whatever it is from them. I like the Or-Fab corners the best I think. Let me know your input. Thanks
Or I might just get the new Fox steering stabilizer and sell my old style Fox SS.

I run the rear skins with the tube slider. I ended up hitting a tree earlier this year and the skins covered up the damage. I love them and most people like them once they see them in person. They are well built and even though i haven't used the slider i feel it would do it's job. The rear lights are nearly flush with the tub and are very bright which is a great bonus. Sorry don't have better pics of the lights.

I just installed the rocker panel armor this week (put on sliders too right after this pic was taken). Install wasn't bad considering I drilled holes in the side of my perfectly good '12. I'm in love with the look, fit and finish was nice, no breakage on any supplied hardware.
