Step/Nerf bars
Or whatever they are called. I want to get rid of these ugly *** things.
However I have a problem, as some of you may know, I have only one real leg! Prosthetic on the other. LOL (so I need some kind of step) I've searched online obviously and there are so many different ones it makes your head spin. I also need a step to get into my tool box from right or left side, instead of using the 2ft ladder I keep in the bed
basically, I'd like something that's unobtrusive(not as ugly as the step in the pic) and serve both of my purposes.
Thanks in advance.

Yeah, I actually like the looks of the mounts on those black truckchamp ones I found better. The folding Bully should be no issue though since the step folds hidden anyway. I'm actually thinking about picking up a pair of those myself, with the lift and 35" tires, even though I'm 6'3" I can't get to anything near the middle of my toolbox without climbing in the back of the truck...

LOL, He doesn't care. His problem is liking to relax under the truck to begin with.
I know, like I said, I have to keep my 2 foot ladder in the bed to get my short fat *** to reach into the tool box. Those swivel steps are awesome.
AND PLEASE GUYS, READ THE VWandDODGE Tragedy sticky.

Hey Captain Z,
Here's is one motorized one called the power step. It's full length running. I have seen others that are step size only, like RV that merc suggested.

Or would you like a fixed setup, like rock sliders?

I really like these power steps but I could'nt find them for the 2nd gen ram!
..... Do you think its possible to modify them to work with our style of pickup? Anyone?

Zman, see if ther is a place near you that has old RV's that are being scrapped - an RV JY. I bought a motorized step for the RV I rebuilt last year for about $35.00 and installed it. Had to run new wires and install a couple of relays to do what I wanted it to do instead of factory design function. Works great!
