Stock rubi rails if you cannot make up your mind right now.

However I vote for Poison Spyder or LOD. They both function great and look even better.

After those it would be Evo or OrFab.

Go with the evo weld ons. I have the ace and they move causing damage to the pinch seam.

I love my ace rails, but I also have rubi rails to protect the seam. I've been dropping my jeep on a couple of rocks, and everytime it hits i feel so good about getting those ace sliders, especially at how cheap they are. beefy as hell, i cant imagine ill be able to subject them to enough abuse to ever need the warranty

i guess i should point out though that when you add in the rubi rails, it brings up the cost of the ace sliders to be in line with the rest of the vendors

I find it funny that a rock rail requires a second rock rail to actually prevent damage. Hmm guess there not that great.

Now if they were frame mounted I'm sure they would be good... I plan to modify mine.

Also check these out. They were my second choice. Super light, and a great step.

If you are looking for a tough rail with a step and are on a budget, check out the ones in my signature. They are kind of a pain to bolt on as you have to drill holes into the frame. I have come down on these pretty hard and have also slid sideways into a tree and these have not budged. I weigh nearly 250 and when I bounce on them, they don't deflect at all. Also, they weigh a ton so I know they are heavy duty.

They come unfinished, but I rattle canned them with bed liner and couldn't be more happy.
