Hey I was looking at side steps and this rail came up but the company makes them only for jeeps. Do ya'll no any companies that make rails just like that but for my excess taco mama? You can also show pictures of yours to give me more ideas thanks!

^^^^Takes months. mine were supposed to ship yesterday, order date was April 16th.......

If I had to do over I would go with Demello or Stubbs

 

eh?

 

I would've gotten something with Kick-outs. Here's my Demello Bolt On, but its not a close up pic:

 

Stubbs ftw!

I have the Deluxe model.

 

Yup, that'll work.....
I always preferred the square tubes over the round ones. You can use it as a step if you need it.

You have to have those welded onto the frame.

I had a used set of those on my 96. I ended up welding the sliders onto 'L' brackets (kinda like angle iron) with gussets. The L brackets were stitch welded to the frame. I did this for more strength and less stress on the frame.

The 2nd gen trucks are obviously different and have C channel frame.....not sure if you could use the L bracket method or not.

 

Is that when they flare out at the end by the tire?

I haven't bought any yet I was starting to like the stubb's with the round tube that flare out by the tire. haha

 

I was looking at the HD-SKOs they are looking pretty nice. On ur deluxe can you see much of the square tubing and does it work well as a step?

takes like a week to get them

 

x2, I have the HD-SKO (kick out) and modified it to be bolt on

 

Demello makes the square ones in a bolt on.

 

mine are extremely long because I have DCLB (and very few co makes DCLB model that covers all the space)

 

Do stubbs come painted? and whats better bolting them on or welding?

 

If you actually use the sliders often then welding. Bolting will hold up but you can sheer the bolt heads off.

 

Alrighty it doesnt seem too hard to weld all you have to do is weld it straight to the fram right?

 

it's easy to weld. I modified mine because I wanted to be able to repaint them easily.

and no way they will shear, I can lift my complete truck by the sliders, bang them on rocks and it won't move at all. The stubbs have 5 legs (more than anyone else) and I have two grade 8 bolts in each.. forget any possibility of shearing.

 

and they come bare.

 

Awesome! Alright i think im going to get the stubbs hd sko and just bolt them in. And probably do a rhino liner type paint
