Just picked up my Rubi JT, had to leave the Red Rock steps I had on my JLU Rubi as the JT has 4 anchor points versus the 3 on my JLU Rubi. I really liked my Red Rock rails, but not compatible .Pics for reference:

So, the first 3 anchor points are different?
dammit
I get that JL boards would be shorter, but was hoping they'd still mount and just end short.

Looks to me like the length should be identical.

Give it a little time. Many aftermarket companies will come out with them as soon as they can get their hands on one to get it developed.

no,if you look at the side of both:
JL rear wheel well starts right after the angle of the door starts.
JT rear wheel well starts behind rear door.

Pretty sure my Rock
The Rubicon comes with rock rails. However they are body mounted, not frame mounted. They afford protection but not nearly as much as frame mounted rails.
Rails are frame mounted....

I'm a fan of the Smittybilt Side Armor rails/steps. I've had them on 4 jeeps and never an issue.
