    I actually said something similar in another thread. I wish they made these with either spring loaded steps or even better if the steps were able to be removed by some sort of quick release system of sorts.

    I could see something like Predator steps but with a hinge that is spring loaded in the up position and you could step on it to pull it down when stepping up on it. Or a quick on/off bolt attachment to sliders like you said.

    There has got to be some fab guys here that could do it.

    Those are interesting. The issue I have is, I like the look of the predator steps a lot for every day use, but don’t like the idea of unbolting the entire assembly if/when I have a need to go off road. I know it’s just a few times a year that I would need to unbolt them, but it just seems there should be an easier option that accommodates both function and style.

    Looks like my 2020 only I like your headlights better than mine. Yours look like they are black on the inside. Mine are the gray or whatever they call it.
    Edit maybe silver. Lol

    Oh man... that hitch skid is badass.

    I'll add that to my wishlist.

    Thanks. I just installed his bedlight kit. I thought these might be good for rear lights if needed without wiring them to the backup lights. What are they mounted to and do you have any underneath pics?

    Slightly more difficult than I thought but still easy to do.4A91EC09-7AF9-42E5-875E-ED5176B013ED.jpg
    And I remembered how hard the bed plastic is without the mat on.

    Other than a place to mount your fire extinguishers, what is the purpose of those bars? Structural integrity?

    I’ll take a closer look tomorrow and probably get some better pics. But Matt Gecko himself installed them for me. He tapped them onto my rear lights so it automatically turns on everytime I back up my truck which is really helpful at night even when looking through the rear camera on your stereo/head unit.

    Posted a couple days ago about the truck being at the dealer for a leak fix. Dropped the skid before taking it in. Figured I would try and make cleanup a bit easier after oil changes while I had the skid down. 20210124_170707.jpg
