    Hello All,
    I know there are a lot of threads about sliders and steps, I've read most of them.:pccoffee: I am looking for a unique combo of the two. I would like them to bolt to the frame like sliders, but need a little bit of a drop like a step (I'm having surgery and I'm going to need a little step up). Any suggestions are appreciated. Also shout out to mike at auto anything he's a tw member and tried to help me out but we got cut off. Thanks for the Help and suggestions in advance!

    What hasn't been modified?
    What area are you in? Some local fab guts can build sliders that are streight out instead of the normal curve upward

    Hit up Ryan! @Shmellmopwho He can make you a set that's fit your needs. I think I even saw he made a set of rock sliders with bolt on steps, so you can unbolt the step when you get healthy for normal looking sliders.

    Hey! Yep, that was me. I accidentally sent the message to @LoLo after we had gotten disconnected haha.
    I replied to your PM with the info I had sent over, looks like many people also referred to Ryan ( @Shmellmopwho )

    That Trail Gear kit is no longer a DIY "weld yourself" kind of kit, so it too may be tucked too high to the body for what you need.

    It was. Thank you! :cheers:

    @Shmellmopwho could probably fab something up to your specs. He sent me some pictures of his work and welds and they were certainly top notch.

    Thanks everyone. I appreciate the kind words. I’m available for anyone who needs sliders built in the SoCal area
