Default Rock rails

Anyone know the part number for the rock rails that come with the 2012 call of duty/mw3 jk unlimited. Is there an aftermarket rail that is sold similar to that? Thanks.

These might just be the plain old Rubi rails, if I am not mistaken.

They sell for a pretty ridiculous price unless you can pick up some take offs from someone local or on the forum or c list.
I think smitty makes what they call a classic rail which is very similar to the stock rubi style

As sa29560 stated, I believe the rails are the same as the regular rails used on the Rubicon's

And as stated above also, these are the Smittybilt ones:

I bought a set of takeoffs from my local dealer for a very good price.

Jeep is using the Mopar Enhanced Rock Rails on the MW3 editions. I believe they are having them sprayed with Line-X as well rather than using the standard finish.

I saw a MW3 at the local dealer and like the rails too, only problem is that they retail for $550-$650 a set. I'm still undecided on if I'm willing to drop that much cash for a new set, w/o the Line-X coating.

This is true, nice catch sir. And for 600 you could get some real heavy frame mounted sliders over these mopar units. Any brands your heart desires are still in that price range

Not to post-jack, but since we're talking about Mopar Rock Rails, I have a question. These came on my JK when I bought it (used). Mine is a four-door, but pictured is the 2 door version. Does anyone know if these rails are strong enough to use a High-Lift under?

Thanks!

If these are the body mounted I wouldn't. Just my two cents

If you absolutely had to, maybe it would be ok, maybe. Frame mounted, welded sliders would handle it much better though. Hope that helps. Everyone will have a different thought I'm sure

I am pretty sure those just attach to the body so I wouldn't recommend a high lift
