Thinking of getting ones by Poison Spyder but looking to see what others have and your experience with them. Advice + tips?

Appreciate the pics so far, has anyone tried the aluminum panels vs the steal ones? Have you taken a hit with them and did they protect/stay well against the jeep? I don't do much rock crawling but I'm looking to protect more against the occasional ones on the trail or ruts I happen to go into.

here's the Mopar Enhanced Rock Rails... they've worked great so far... really nice for pivoting around trees on tight trails...

Poison Spyder body armor and ORE sliders

Personal note FWIW: the only reason I have the body armor is that I installed Poison Spyder Brawler Rockers when they first came out. Like a few other things I did, eventually I removed the Brawlers and welded the ORE sliders on (what I wanted to do originally, but talked myself out of it). I installed the body armor cause I already had the nutsert holes drilled. If I was to do it all over again I don't think I would install the body armor ...I'd just go with the ORE sliders or PSC Rocker Knockers. Be real sure you want the body armor vs sliders before you start drilling into the body. IMO, good sliders will do what the body armor does and more.

Love the EVO's, they just scream "beat me!"

Agreed! EVO sliders are just evil!

I also like the ones from ACE Engineering. They are hard to beat for the price you pay. They offer great protection as well and works great as a step!

I have the Poison Spyder Rocker Knockers they mount to the tub...Check out the PSC Brawler Rocker. There are lots rocker guards out there to pick from.

Cant beat the Ace rails! They bolt to the FRAME! and fit under the rubi rails so you can hide the seam. I have personally sat them on a rock and dragged them the entire length with no bendage. Best of all... only $295

If you plan one actually putting them to the test you cant beat ORE's

Why did you not like the PS Brawler Rockers, if I may ask?

Sliders are the next thing I'm looking into. I'm between 3 right now... Psc rocker knockers, ace sliders, or the pure jeep sliders. Hmmm?

Two reasons. I have always wanted the EVO sliders, and weight. The Brawlers are bloody heavy!!! My Jeep is a DD and I can put on up to 100 miles per day, so I've done a lot of recent work to reduce weight.

Rocker Knockers, IMO.

Greg, the evo's are nice and look like they will take a beating. But like said for the price you can't beat ace! Most rockers bolt to the tub which IMO is not solid. A rail that bolts to both frame and tub is ideal. Ace rails bolt to the frame only but are very solid! I have taken some massive hits at RC and aside from the scars they are good to go. I will be in the pines for the holidays if you want a closer look.

Hope im there as well to take a peek!..

Here are Body Armor's Extreme Rock rails. Although they are not as stout as some others out there, they are a great product for the price. I was looking for something that provided body protection and a rail to provide some separation from rocks and provide somewhat of a step. They list for under $400 retail but Body Armor has some listed as blems on their site for about $250! (Not a very good pic, sorry)

Is it a good idea to bolt to the frame and the tub with sliders. The tub moves slightly with rubber body mount bushings. Bolting the two together might cause problems.
