Just ordered an OEM bed step

If I understand this thread correctly the oem step pad is not adjustable but the aftermarket AMP is.

the installation instructions sure look like the OEM could be adjusted based on where you place the nuts the slide into the step

 

I saw this as an option when building my TRD DCSB OR on the Toyota website and ordered it that way with it being installed at port. I use it weekly, anytime I need to access my bed and could not recommend it more highly. It easily kicks out and in. I wonder how people access their bed without it.

 

Unpopular opinion but I have the step and rarely use it, it always guarantees a knee or shin bump on the tailgate

 

Then take it off. Use mine all the time not once have I hit my shin

 

If by chance you ever happen to decide to let it go, I may be interested. I've got short legs and would probably get some good use out of it.

 

Used mine first time yesterday
Love it

wish I ordered it on previous tacomas

 

Packed up ready to go

 

Just scored one for $80 on FB. Brand new, never installed. I don't know of its an AMP or OEM. Anyone know as I see some posted but don't post if its an AMP or OEM.

 

How do you keep your truck so clean? Mine wasn't that clean brand new at the dealer. Very nice.

 

I keep it in the garage 2018 , I don't drive it very often and its never been in the rain,lol. I have a beater Jeep my Wife and I use. Hell you should see my Wire's 4Runner, now that is clean but again I'm very particular and keep my stuff pristine as best as I can.

 

OMG! @cop414

Tim, what other mods have you got?

Wait, I've seen recent ones: Grill & OEM LED headlights.

I've yet to add this mod...even though I had bilateral knee replacement 4 years ago, I can still get up in the bed.

 

You won't regret it hahaha it comes in handy quite a bit once you have it. Would hate to remove it IF I have to when I get the CBI swing out bumper. Cheers!!

 

if i recall correctly, the oem bed step is made by amp. so whether you buy from amp or from toyota, you have an amp bed step...

 

That's what I was just reading. The seller is got it from said it came in a box with the truck back in 2017 and he never had it installed then the truck was sold.

 

Yes. 5 years of aarp free. Btw love mine. Useful during camping

 

I still wish the GMC Sierra 3-way fold down tailgate thing was an option... I wonder how many would buy it and at what cost?

 

I especially like how they designed it to hit the trailer hitch insert.

 

I see that picture and part of me says what a stupid gimmick. Then the other part of me says damn that thing is actually pretty cool! But is sure seems like a lot of stuff that can break or go wrong there. On that note, I wonder what the replacement cost for those fancy GM tailgates is? It's got to be out crazy expensive.
