Rocker Guard advice

Its time for me to get a set. I'm looking for advice/opinions on what some of you guys are running, what you like and don't like about them, etc. Should I go with the tub only mounting or tub/body mount style? Any opinions/info is much appreciated.

Thanks

If you have a Sahara edition, do not get Rock Hard sliders. They are pretty well made and would be fine but I didnt realize when I ordered them that they are not tall enough to cover the rivets from the original Sahara rocker trim (even though northridge told me I would probably be fine after I called and asked)

A to Z for me . I have all the coverage i need. Plus, if you call Zach at A to Z and tell him you are a JF member he will give you a discount.

ARB has some nice one's too. I also agree with running body mounted sliders.



I definitely want the extra outer bar too, for door protection.
