    Awesome.

    In case anyone’s curious, mine are now four years old and still look like the day I installed them. Or they would if I’d wash the truck.

    I’m as happy with them today as I was when I bought them.

    Another thumbs up for the 2nd generation boards on a 3rd generation. Bolt right up, I love that these hide the pinch welds.
    My OEM tube steps are up for sale, excellent condition, central PA pick up only if anyone is interested.

    I got mine on Amazon, a bit more expensive than going through a dealer but I wanted the ease of return just in case there was a problem. They’re still shipped by a California dealer though. But if needed I could just run them to our local kohl’s, drop them and return complete. They’re listed at the bottom of this page. Keep in mind that you will be told that they won’t fit a 3rd gen, I even had to change the year of my truck in my Amazon garage before they’d ship them. Access cab and double cab are different part numbers FYI.

    Tyger blades purchased off Amazon. They seem solid, install was easy and I'm thinking should provide good door dinge protection. 20210109_101959.jpg

    I'm thinking about pulling the trigger on these for my 2021. Do they look just like the OEM ones?

    I just put on the nfab black epyx steps and they are great. The powder coat seems decent and the brackets are also powder coated. They aren't cheap, but I am satisfied.

    I went with Predator steps. They are not recommended for serious off-roading, as they will get hung up on stuff. I have a 4 year old so the steps are mainly for her. Once she gets old enough, i'll swap them out for some sliders.

    I can't tell the difference. someone else bought the same steps and got the correct hardware, so maybe mine was a fluke. I've had them for a couple of years with no issues

    I like those. Do you use them as a step or are they useless for that? My stock round tube ones it came with suck and are so close to the cab its pointless as a step

    They are not the most practical as a step, a little high for that.
