Does anyone know where to purchase steps like this for a 1996 Ram 1500? It doesn't have to be Go Rhino, but any other manufacturer. I have seen them somewhere but I am unable to find where they were. I don't need the bed step or even the back door step since I only have the club cab, so I don't have the back doors.

I already have a set of Summit side step bars but I am looking for the type that has the drop down steps. The regular side step bars still make it difficult for people to get in the truck because they are not much lower than the door. I am felony up to a 5" lift after the first of the year and wanted to make it easier for them to get in. I like the go rhinos but they don't make them for my year.

I know I seen them somewhere for our trucks but I can't for the life of me remember where. They had all 3 types. Single, double, and triple steps. Thanks for your help.

Getting some built/building some will be cheaper then ordering something w/ freight.

Provided there is a place that does that kind of work nearby........ not as common as they used to be.

Nearly any machine shop can mandrel bend a piece of 1.75 .090 tubing. Just get two bends put into a piece of tubing, and weld it onto the frame, or make a flange out of a piece of strap.

Getting that built will cost under $100 Including beer.
