If you are into hardcore wheeling and hit the rocks a lot, I would recommend the EVO sliders like JayKay said because they are tight to the body (so you don't get caught up on anything) and they are tough as nails.

If you are a occasional wheeler and use this more as a DD and are looking for a great look and great function over the hardcore function, I say the Poison Spyders.

Just my
Hey I thought you had ACE sliders? Did you change out?

I meant I chose poison spyder in his poll. I have ACE cause they function great, provide a step, and look good with my rubi rails. But he specifically asked about three rails, so I gave him my opinion on the three

I plan on upgrading to Nemesis sliders. Lighter, but tough.

The Shrockworks rails were one of the first mods I did in the summer of '07. They have held up amazingly well in the harsh environment I drive in. I spend 80% of my time on dirt roads coated with that damned magnesium chloride and they are showing very little rust. I also like the "step" they provide with the help of some grip tape. I have slammed down onto rocks and pivoted around rocks on switchbacks and those things are only showing a few scrapes and scratches in the powder coat. I like the look of the Aces. Nice step, strong mounting points and the price seems right too. Now I have had some issues with skids and the frame mounting points of the sliders. For that I like the idea of the Aces or the EVO's. As far as the Hanson, Poison Spyder and Nemesis sliders mentioned, I have to say that if you wheel hard enough some time, some place you will really want to be able to put your HiLift jack under the side of your Jeep and get some elevation on one side or the other. None of those three look HiLift friendly.

I love my Shrockworks. Had them custom built to be installed with the existing rubi rock rail to hide the pinch seam.
