    I'm a big fan of RCI, and they make a 5 degree slider now (which you can get with top plates). I'm not sure whether you can buy them directly or if it's a special Toytech deal. Either way, it's another option if you're looking for something flatter.

    Hefty Fab Rock Sliders
    I love my HeftyFab works sliders/ side steps with kick outs. Personally, I would rather not have the steps because I dont' need them to step up into the truck, its really just an obstacle to get my pants dirty when getting in and out of the truck, but I wanted the sliders. My fiancé is also a foot shorter than me and she uses them as steps quite a bit and has been happy with them. IMG_0723.jpg IMG_0723.jpg IMG_0721.jpg IMG_0720.jpg

    Our powder coat is highly textured. It's very grippy. Wait until you see it. I think you might agree you don't need anything else.

    Also, Merry Christmas everyone.

    I have the same ones and agree. I had some Demello 0 degree square tubing on my Baja that definitely worked as steps.

    I have the Mobtown Offroad Sliders set at 0 degrees and filler plates.

    They work great for lots of things, but steps ain't one of them. Sliders are just too high off the ground to work well as steps. I don't use mine as steps and the wife only does some of the time. Regular steps work way better for this task.

    Haven't been mentioned yet but for a 'step' I think the slee sliders would work pretty well. I haven't personally seen them but when I go with sliders I'll probably go RCI or SLEE.

    RCI with minis 5 degree gets my vote.

    6" lift, Fox 2.5 DSC with adjusters(Rear 2.5s on the Rona’ back order) FF headache racks/Modifier&RC Cubes,DBCustoms Matte PC Grill w dual RC Cubes and amber backlit script, Westin Rails,Dropstar 20" 645B with 35.12.50.20 Nitto Trail Grapplers. MESO'd out. Rago bed mounts. Dynamat,JL650s components in all corners with dual JL 10” shallow mounts/custom box. Taco tunes amp for the doors and Monoblock for the subs.
    I like them but i wish they stuck out just a little bit further to really be used as a true step up/down. Its a little to close to the jamb, but who knows you might love them. I do like the angles though. Eventually will pair up nicely w/a mobtown bumper set or other similar application.

    I have these and they work great as a step for the wife and I. The fill plate is flat on top which is nice...check out their site for pictures.
