Step bars

Anyone ever see these? Saw them on a Facebook post but couldn’t get much info on them. They are a Toyota product. Bolt on type.

 

Super low profile sliders? Not step bars for sure. I kinda like em, never seen em before

 

Looks like they bolt to the cab just like most steps and nerf bars. Doubt they are an oem option, more likely they were something a dealer installed

 

He said they are OEM.

 

And it was on Facebook, so must be true..
Rules are rules...

 

Im pretty sure the are the N-Fab rock rails. https://n-fab.com/rkr-step-system/2019/toyota/tacoma

These bolt to the cab and provide no protection. You can add a step to them.

I've never seen anything Toyota OEM like those (seriously doubt they're Toyota vs. some dealer-installed aftermarket thing), but if you want quality high-and-tight sliders with no step bump outs: Cali Raised 25-degree Trail Edition:

 

OP,

Seems pretty unlikely. I've poured over the Tacoma accessories catalog for 2020 (and also 2021) and have not seen anything like that. Seems reasonable that if they were an OEM product they would be in the catalog. Not saying the guy is lying, of course, he may not know and he may not have been told the truth from the dealer. If you look at the catalog they only have the 3 inch oval and the 5 inch oval ones and those look straight where the OEM ones are curved.

Just in case this helps, here are the links:

And of course the running boards, which they are clearly not:

Maybe it's these Trail Rails?

Never seen them anywhere except in that TW thread

 

OP, after additional research this could be them. Hard to tell in the pictures. Check out this link:

Picture attached for your convenience. What do you think? Looks close, right? Appears to not be in the general Tacoma Accessories catalog because it was an option for the Southeast Toyota market only and was a dealer port install.

A little poking around, hope that helps !

 

Holy crap. $2k for that. Kiss my ass. My RCI sliders were only $1K and they actually protect the truck. I guarantee those bolt to the body and not the frame.

 

averagejp, that looks like them. Thanks!
