Default Poison Spyder Body Armor + Rubi Rails (2013+)

Has anyone here installed Poison Spyder Body Armor and then bolted your Rubicon Rails back up?

I am getting conflicting information regarding whether or not this will work. Supposedly there is something that has changed on the 2013+ that requires some modification to those rails.

Thank you for your help!

Marcus

Thank you very much for replying. I have a 2012 and have had three previously. I couldn't imagine what would have changed, but a customer heard someone had trouble and they were concerned.

Thanks again! Jeep looks niiiice!

Thank you for your pictures! I'm not sure who had problems, it was a through the grapevine thing, but there must have been more to the story. I didn't think that the rocker or the rails had changed that much, but haven't installed body armor without a brawler rocker attached to it in a while.

Thank you!

To update this, I did the install this afternoon and there were no complications with the Rubicon sliders along with the body armor on the 2014.

Thanks for your help!
