    I just got a TRD pro that has a lift on it. While I am 5'5" I can hop in gracefully but my wife is 5'1" and this height will not be acceptable for her.

    I am looking at jumping in on the All Pro slider group buy and getting some Apex's. Ryan from AP sent me a link to a step:

    http://stores.streetacos.com/steps-clamp-on/

    This is supposed to bolt on to the Apex's.

    Is this my best option? My criteria are:

    1. Good TW friendly vendor
    2. Has a step or step can be added.
    3. Functional and looks cool.

    Be aware that street tacos has quite a bad reputation, you should search this forum for threads discussing their poor business practices as well as product quality issues.

    Thanks. All I need to hear. No further research needed.

    just ask to have your APEX sliders welded without the upward angle. They'll be just like steps, but better. That's the route I plan to go.
