    whatever you want man. if you want protection get sliders. if you want a step that will crush in an instant, get nerf bars.

    Sliders will work as steps but running boards / nerf bars will not work as sliders...

    i'd get sliders. ...they work as both a step and as protection.

    in some instances, i've acually seen those cheap chrome steps being sold for more $$$ than custom sliders. ....don't bother with overpriced bling.

    Look at build!
    Sliders FTMFW! I have a 01 as well which doesnt really matter when it comes to 01-04 they all look the same, but sliders look way mroe badass and serve a helluva better purpose than flimsy lil nerf bars!
