    I'm in the market for sliders and found these that completely fit what I'm looking for. I'd like to know if anyone has experience with them on a Tacoma, and/or the installation of them.

    I was looking for:

    -0 degree (My wife is 4'11", my truck has a 4" lift, and she needs something that resembles a step)
    -Some sort of treaded cover (as stated before, I need a step, and it snows/ices a lot here).
    -Something to protect the cab, that's functional. These have a lifetime warranty against bending/breaking.

    1.) If they mount to the pinch weld, they aren't true sliders. The purpose of a slider is to protect your trucks body, not accelerate damaging it.
    2.) Their website is full of lies about being better designed and mounted than all the other manufacturers.
    3.) Their website is trash.

    If you are planning to use them as sliders, don't get them. Even if you are planning to only use them as steps, don't get them. They lock the frame of your truck and the cab together.
