Default Frame mounted side steps

Does anyone know of any companies that make frame mounted side steps for our trucks? I would like to have a set of ranch hand steps but they don't make them for our trucks.

Well these steps have another plate and it sandwiches the frame. I was thinking the same thing as you how much could it have changed

Love the flex pipe exhaust.......

I suppose, the trick would be finding a third-gen, and measuring the frame at the appropriate points, and then comparing that to a second gen.......

Or.... finding a custom exhaust shop, and having them weld up some pipe to some flat stock of the right dimensions.

I am going to go to the walmart parking lot and ask someone with a 3gen if I can measure their frame.

That's just entirely too funny. I had to remind myself that it was trucks we were talking about... I've been at People of WalMart.com way too much lately, I guess.
