Side steps too high up - any remedy?

I'm wondering if someone could make a new brackets with the drop down.

 

Just curious, did you ever find a resolution with this...?

 

Shin or femur implants should help

 

Elton John’s stage shoes.

 

I would be interested if the vendor that makes the seat risers can make some blocks to lower the side steps.

 

Agree, you can probably sell yours and buy take off predators for bear the same price.

 

My taco is stock height and people complain it’s difficult to get in even with the predator step bars I added so I plan on doing a level lift in the future so it’s more difficult for them.

 

Maintain clearance. Step up comfortably. Have people ask awkward questions about your sex life. All in one magical predict!

 

Best solution ... take them off and get some predator steps.

Where did find the deal ? Link ? Thanks.

 

I have the same issue with my Lund side steps. Sort of in the between stage of not really needing them and not a bad idea to have a little lift. But once you step on them your rear end is way above the seat. Haha. Kinda awkward.

 

Agreed. My truck came with 5-inch oval step bars that were too close to the height of the door sill to be anything but awkward to use. Bit the bullet and bought the predator steps. They are much more useful for my vertically challenged wife. If she's happy it's worth every penny.

Another aged thread...that still applies today.

Here's my HDX Steps. My second add-on/upgrade...first was the mud flaps/splash guards.

 

I got these mainly because the steps are higher (more ground clearance) and there's only a 1/2" gap between the bar and rocker panel (like a tight fit.)

 

Since we are resurrecting a dead thread, I have bent all four steps on my predator steps. And, if my memory serves me right, they are aluminum. Which means light weight, but zero protection to the cab.

 

To each their own, but this never made sense to me. 1. Lift truck 2. Add larger tires…3. Lower trucks breakover angle with lower clearance side steps that hang down like buck tooth anchors.

 

I “guess” some owners prefer the lifted look, but don’t need the actual lift for off-road purposes? …. To each his/her own…. The 3rd gen isn’t great at everything, but is a rather versatile daily driver for many

 

It makes a terrible boat. Takes on water like you forgot to put in the drain plugs if the water goes above the doors.

 

Probably makes a lousy aircraft too.
