JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Now before every one gets in an up roar about these steps understand I don't really want them but it may be a compromise between me and the ol-lady. I get a lift if she can get in kind of deal.

With that said I am looking to see if any one has the auto drop down steps that a few different companies make for jeeps. I like the way they look and work due to it not being obvious that they are there when they are up but she can use them when she opens the door. I'm curious if they work good and if they are durable to withstand going off-road with them.

Also if anyone else has this issue if you have any other ideas that you have used PLEASE share them.

they're not autos, but they seem pretty legit. I have their front bumper and original sliders, love them.

Introducing our newest addition to our product line. The R-SE Step-Slider, the only way to
improve on the already proven design. Combining the functional slider and the need for a step.
When the door is opened the step will deploy to allow access. Upon closure the step returns to
the home position. Becoming a functional slider. The patent pending design allows for access
to the front and rear doors of the vehicle. The supplied wiring harness includes a manual
operation switch if the doors are removed as well as a system shut off if complete disable is
required. (Recommended whenever the jeep is in 4wheel drive) In the event that the step
comes in contact with an object while traveling in the down position, the step will stop and
return to its home position upon closing the door. The step slider is the only step and slider
combination on the market. Constructed out of 3/16 steel available in bare or powder coated
finish.

From the sound of the description it sounds like it is auto and this is more what I'm looking for anyway, thank you. I didnt know anyone made a combo slider/step. I haven't seen these yet.

Here's a video of those power steps on YouTube. These are exactly what I'm looking for.
