I read this post a few years back... now I have a 4 door so I searched the site. Ordered today!! Thanks My mother in law would like to thank you also. She knows that I'm getting a lift but I don't think she quite understands 35" tires, BL and suspension lift.

Finally did mine

I got the grab handles at a local hardware store and while I was at it I also bought some tubular nylon strapping and velcro and made a setup for holding the front handles. I may raise up the front handles since they seem a bit low.

Enjoy......

Default Cheap Grab Handles

I purchased the Chesapeake Handles mentioned earlier and installed in the back... no problems, they work great and won't tear. Nice cheap solution, looks like factory. I might get another pair and use on back of seat headrests... they charge $20 each for those in Quadratec catalog.

Default Handles Downunder

Ordered 6 of the handles for my 4 Door, 10 days from order to delivery. Thats Pretty good, $11.31 worked out to be the AU$ cost each.

Then I found a place here that sells them @ $15ea + post. So if anyone is looking to go local it's not much more.
