The Explorer rails are another great option if you plan on mounting anything to them.

Is there something wrong with the one you have? Pace Edwards has a catalog full of replacement parts, while replacing a tarp isn't fun, it's not that difficult or terribly expensive. I've only done one on a very early generation Pace Edwards, and a slightly later Roll-n-lock, it was pretty simple. Most of the rest of the parts should be available as well.

Since you already have rails, you could also just buy the FMJR canister assy and convert your cover to the FMJR.
I do like the look and fit of the JackRabbit but, if I'm going to keep it I'm going to need to find some spare parts. The clamps that hold the rails in are missing along one side so I have to make sure that rail is precisely located in order to close and latch the tonneau into place (took some studying to figure out that the reason the cover wasn't cooperating was that some mildly important parts were missing).
