Nice pix.
I was thinking about sliders instead of the stupid side steps I have.

They just don't make nerf bars like they used too. The last three sets I've had all rusted from the inside out. Pure crap...

I have the westin tube steps right now, and they just hang too low for what I want to do. It looks like anything that I want to do is going to have to be custom built by someone. The search continues.

Cool. I may have to try and make me some that are like that! Did you weld them to your frame or just bolt them on?
