What To Buy...

Hello there! This is my first post!
I have the pleasure of owning a 2017 Tacoma TRD Sport 2WD, Crew Cab Short Bed.
I've had her for about a month, and I've ran into a problem... my mom and girlfriend can't easily get into the truck! Does anyone have some good, strong, reliable, and somewhat cost efficient side steps/sliders/ steps that they know of? I don't want to buy just any old one. I'd like them to look nice, not get ripped off if I do ANY offroading (which I will, 2WD or go home baby) and are made of good material that won't break the bank. Any help is appreciated!!

 

Welcome!
Most actual sliders used for offroad, are not cheap, and do not make a very good step. Most actual step bars, hang much lower, are wider, and not as robust.
They're just two different things.

 

Welcome! Theres only about 6384858 options...In the meantime, have you considered a taller girlfriend?

 

Beam me up, Scotty!

 

Nope. I love her and she's sticking around.

 

If you were to give you own personal preference though, what would you go with?

 

?

 

Look on here in the market place or offer up, local craigs list and see if you can pick up a set of predator steps. Other wise look at NFAB

I do not have them, but member on TW have reported good stuff. Try to search them on Amazon.com

 

I'm gonna take a look at the predator steps. Thanks.

 

Will do, thank you very much.

 

If you are in San Antonio you can have(free) the stock chrome steps that came with my DCLB. I took them off a month after owning the truck.

 

I'm in California, so I don't have the luxury of getting those for free.

 

Ventura county most likely

 

I don't know your whole situation, but it sounds like you've got a good woman, so get actual steps. You can find take offs cheap, that way if you see something that fits your needs better, later on, you can resale without much loss.

 

Thank you, I'll keep this in mind!

 

That'd be correct.

 

OEM cast aluminum. Great as a step and still up high enough to not get ripped off. Plus they catch a lot of the crap that kicks up off the road.

you should lift it higher, and tell them to start doing box jumps
