Hey Y'all!

So...I need your help! I'm tryin' to decide whether or not to change out my side steps....if I do, I'm not sure what to swap them out for....any ideas?? Should I try something new or stay with what I have now??? Let me hear your thoughts!!!

 

It really kind of depends on what you are going for. Are you going to be doing rock climbing or anything that would require better armor? If so you should probably look at some rock rails such as Or-Fab, Olympic, etc. However, if you want something wide to step up on, there are a few options for steps. (Mopar, Olympic, etc.)

I had the factory steps like what came on the Saharas, but one of the other JKers around here hooked me up with Rubicon rock rails. They definitely provide better protection, but don't have steps so my wife is not as pleased.

 

I like your set up as is! You have black and silver wheels, and some black trim mixed with billett door handles so the black tubes and silver steps make for a nice blend. Unless you're unhappy with them, I would leave them alone, they look good with your set up!

 

if you don't wheel a lot , I say stay with the ones you have. now if you plan on wheeling I dont think those would work. good looking jeep

 

What he said

I agree with RubiRascal on aestetics alone, I think these steps blend very well. I can't remember if I commented on your Jeep before but I am now..............

 

I went with Shrockworks, I don't go wheeling all the time but wanted extra protection. One trip to Moab convinced me of that. Plus you can use them as a step. Very solid and very well built.

 

Check these ones... from red rock fab, I think the look great and you get to keep the two tone (silver/black) theme that you seem to be going for...

BTW nice looking jeep...

 

I like the Teraflex.

 

I noticed with side steps/rails is that if they stick out too far, you tend to hit them with your leg and pick up the dirt on your clean pants on your way to work LOL! Unless of course you actually use them as a step. So I would lean towards some that stay in close. But if you are lifted and use it as a step ....that's cool.

 

I prefer the ones that stick out, preferably as far as the fenders.

Reason?

Let the slimy wimps who like to open their doors without thinking slam into one of my rails. ROTFL.
