Step bar choices

I've been debating between steps and the sliders. I traded my 2010 Tundra for the Taco, and am still getting used to the difference in size. I had the nice Toyota 5" flat steel steps for my lifted Tundra and they were great. But the Taco is so much smaller, and even with a moderate lift, the dimensions are very different. I don't think a side step would really work, and would more than likely just be a good way to get dirt on your pants. I also miss the grab handle the Gen 2 Tundra's had. Anyone have steps that work really well ~ as a step?

 

I have the Predator steps. They work very well for stepping up/in the cab. They work a little less well stepping out but I do use them for both in and out. I found a Tacoma with them installed at a local dealer to test before ordering. I'd buy again. I'm 5'10 if that matters.

 

Thanks 2017. They do look nice. Do you do any off-roading? I do a little, but no gnarly rock crawling. I'm wondering if that style step would get caught on things. But the drop makes them much more functional as a step.

 

Anyone have any All-Pro coupons?

Decided to go with these:

 

I don't go off road more than gravel really. I've read on here about people with Predator steps damaging them off road. I could see that happening. But for me they work well and I like the drop step for function better than a tube step that is nearly floor height.

 

Just about even with the tires or flaps? A pic from behind looking down the side would be awesome. I know it's a pain, but your help IS appreciated.

I saw these on your earlier post. In this pic, it looks like the boards are about 1” - 1.5" from the edge of the mudflap. But you said that they're about even. Is the pic a little deceiving, I guess??

 

I guess they do stick out a smidge.

 

Perfect pics. Thanks!!!

 

They were made by a TW member I had to go to SoCal to get them

 

So I went through the 8 pages, and didn't see any, does anyone have a DCLB that the nerf bars/running boards go the full length wheel well-to-wheel well?

Thanks, After I continued looking, I realized that the ones from the 2nd gen will also work. Now I just have to find something that I like. Thanks again.

 

Those look awesome. How much and what are they

 

I got the Tyger Armour for mine. Really like them.

 

I had my mind set on the predator steps but this made me think twice. I like how they fit. Do they cover the under liners?

Also, did it solve the issue you were having with stuff flying to your lower paint?

 

Gen 2 boards...

 

Not these. Lol

 

Looks good. I ordered mine on Friday, should be here by the end of next week.
At one point, the expected ship time for these was 1-2 months. Once they came in stock, I jumped on them. I really wanted bolt on sliders but chickened out (price). These will do for now.

 

ICI has some, they're just like the regular ones except for they are longer and have a 3rd step. Magnumtruckgear.com has them or I can get them for you at the same price.

 

I was really looking for something that hugged the body more and didn't stick out so far. These fit perfect. They are heavy.. each one is around 40lbs I think. Help prevent door dings too.
