Snakes?

It'd probably be best to start a thread in the "general 4x4" section asking about the best sliders for JKs. You'll get a lot of good info there. I don't know enough about JKs to steer you one way or another.

Two nights ago, I ran Rattlesnake in my TJ on 31s. Accompanying me was a gentleman in a stone stock 2000 Toyota Tundra extended cab pickup. With careful line selection and spotting in a few locations, we were able to get his truck all the way through the trail and then out again (ran it backwards) with no body damage other than one munched plastic mud flap. There were times when I had him stop, then creep forward a couple inches, then stop, and so on to verify safe body clearance... but it worked. He did drag his transmission cross member a few times, but since it didn't dent I classified this as "friendly" contact.
Your JK ought to fare much better. Even still, you don't want to go in there and drive like a buffoon. Go with at least one other rig (hopefully someone who knows the trail well) and make sure they keep an eye on you in the more challenging sections. If nobody else volunteers, I'd be glad to take you out and show you the trail... though my work leaves me little time for Jeeping these days.
Oh, and I'm going to put in a plug for rocker guards. Do some research and select ones which are known to hold up well. They will be worth every penny you'll spend, and you'll never regret buying quality ones. I suggest this for your next mod. Seriously.
