    I did a search, found no answers in the search bar...I'm looking at buying some sort of very simple rock slider that bolts to the chassis. My Avenger step's are starting to hit the body. Any rock sliders out there that would be considered low key. I don't want a giant scaffolding hanging off the side of the truck that needs permits(joke). Simple. Function over form. Any steps out there that would check that box? Thanks in advance!

    Low key and real sliders..... I would think you would need to go with someone who makes a 10-20 degree sliders. They at least tuck up higher and with a top plate don't look like scaffolding.

    Most of the major brand name companies make what you’re asking for…maybe this will give you some ideas?

    Edit: Guess I’m not allowed to post that link. Nevermind lol, it was an article from Trail Tacoma.

    I think this is the article where the link will not post. Putting this in Google will show the Trail Tacoma article.

    Don't skimp on sliders. Fixing a messed up rocker/door jamb is not cheap.

    0° stick out.
    20° are angled up and flush.

    BodyArmor is about as low key as you can get. They bolt to the frame of course. Just keep in mind they are not going to serve as a step like some of the ones that stick way out. Keep in mind steps attach to the body where as sliders attach to the frame - the sliders that attach to the frame that also serve as steps - they are the ones that stick out.
