Default Slider Question

Iv got the factory installed side steps on my 09 4 dr and thinking about
changing to a combo slider/step.
Is there anyone that makes a combo slider/side step?
Any pics and where you got them and how you like them would be appreciated.
Thanks.

LoD sliders are very nice and double as a step.

Go to 4wheelparts.com and you can look at several different slider/step models on one site.

I also took off my side steps and installed a set of LoD sliders. A previous post stated he wielded his, but they are might to be bolted. They are one of the more pricey ones.

hehe

well, since they came with no instructions and I later found out that I would have to buy a tap, more bolts and drill holes in the frame.... out came the MIG and 10 minutes later, they are on better than any bolt job would ever do.

BTW, if you have a 2dr (like me) the bolt holes dont line up on one entire side (driver side) and that is why you have to go buy taps and bolts and drill holes all over the place. Not worth the effort or risk of screwing it up.

I have the LOD sliders, check them out on their site. My wife likes them too because they work very well as a step (which is the main reason she let me buy them)
