My buddy has the ACE rails on his JKU and I too will be adding them to mine pretty soon. Nothing but positive things to say about them.

They're also slightly cheaper from ACE directly compared to the other website listed. ACE JK Rock Sliders (4 Door)

I was watching Teraflex's install video on these. I couldn't find much on customer reviews for them.

PS: I always like to take phone calls when I'm spotting someone too, lol.

Have you had a chance to test those out for durability?

ACE has separate shipping charges; lots of vendors including us have free shipping over $100, so the price you see on our site is what you pay.

For some reason I thought the advertised price on ACE's website was with shipping included but it actually came out to be a few dollars more than your price. Thank you for pointing that out, I was mistaken.

Smittybuilt xrc for sure they have a step welded in. Have gotten tons of compliments. Powder coat has not worn and looks great. Really durable

I have the teraflex rails and love them. I have a 9yo and 6yo and they work great as a step to get in. The rails sit high and tight to the jeep and don't lower the side clearance at all. Though a little pricey... $525 or so, they are wicked strong and light. Installation is not easy but not difficult. Just take your time drilling the threaded rivets into the body. I hope this helped....

I also have these and have not had a problem with them. . They haven't been hard core tested, but they have had a chance to rub a little and they held up. .
