Oem tube steps vs n-fabs

WTB a set of tube steps for my 08 double cab short bed taco to help my gf get into my taco.not plannin on a lift but am debating between getting the oem tube steps or some westins, n-fabs or some other brand. was wondering if anyone had some suggestions on which set actually helps as a "step"

 

My wife uses my N-fabs all the time.....they work fine

 

nice truck

 

i say if you can afford them...go for the n-fabs. pricey, but they look very nice, are built really well and are functional too.

 

hmm im liking how the n-fabs look just wondering how the black will look on my indigo ink. oh and would my mud flaps get in the way?

 

black will look awesome with the indigo ink, and im pretty sure your mudflaps will be safe too.

 

thanks for all the replies...now the question is wheres the cheapest place to order some n-fabs? performanceproducts.com?

 

The N-Fabs look great. I've seen them around more and more.

Another option are the Go Rhino Dominator II steps. They are 2.5" diameter. N-Fabs come in both 2" or 3" diameter. These also have a removable polished step that I liked. I was looking for N-Fab but found these at truckcandy for around $330 shipped. Plus they arrived in 2 days! Easy to bolt on, took about an hour at most. I imagine the N-Fabs bolt on the same. They are perfect for steping around if you don't want to use them, or stepping on if you do. They don't get in the way.

 

NOOOOO go to StallionCustoms.com there is a ToyotaNation discount.. I got mine through them and it was $85 cheaper than everyone else. I talked to Missy at N-Fab and she said she new about the offer. She said jump on it because it was a great deal and they don't match price. I should be getting mine any day now

 

did you guys go with the 2 inch? or 3 inch?

 

I went with 3".. a lot of people would say 2" but I like the look of the 3" particularly after I get my lift and wheels

 

was wondering if anyone knew of a cheap place to order the oem tube steps too?

 

I went with 3". Definately the way to go IMO.

 

i have sent you a pm...let me know

Hi i'm having trouble finding the right tube step for my 2010 double cab long bed Tacoma, by right: i mean one that reaches all the way past the second door. I don't want a gap between the end of the tube & the back tire. So far from the photos I've seen that the OEM & the Hunter reach all the way back, but I can't seem to find where to buy them in black, I found the Hunter at Truckgear.com but they are out of stock. Oh! which is the N-fab? Can someone please help me find where to buy these, i would really appreciate it & can't wait to get them on my truck.

 

The N-fab part number for DC long bed is T0589CC.
