Best step/rail for a Tacoma Double cab with a 5' bed???

...any recommendations?

 

Steps or sliders -- what are you looking for?

I had N-Fab 3" steps -- they were great, looked awesome. Traded up for sliders (which don't work as well as steps) but have added functionality (high lift off them, more impact protection).

Steps or sliders? ...I'm open to both...curious to hear the pros & cons...

 

Steps look cool and give you a place to put your foot. Steps are cheap. If you're going off road steps will reduce your ground clearance. And if you crush them on a rock there's a chance to damage your vehicle too.


Sliders actually protect your vehicle. They also provide a more solid platform for your feet. Sliders are expensive. They won't reduce ground clearance. If you drop your truck onto a rock the sliders will prevent damage to your vehicle.

 

I'm happy with the Relentless bolt on sliders with the fill plate
