thanks but i have a four door, and i dont want any chrome on my jeep. but thanks anyway

 

i have the tube step bars like your looking at, like pig said i wouldnt trust them to take a hard hit, plus the stick out. mounting is good i have use a highlift on them. not sure how thick the steel is

 

get the olympic reverse-a bars. mount them downward for now so it sits low enough for her to get in. then in nine months, mount them upwards! good compromise for both of u i think!

What about the High Rock 4x4 Slider Step from Bestop. You can pull it out for your wife, and push it in for off road.

 

off road that thing is still going to get in the way and it doesnt look like it can take a hit.

anyone have those olypic rectangular ones that slide in and out? they look a little strong than the 3" tube nerfs

 

I just put the Rock Hards http://www.quadratec.com/products/12065_2001.htm on my 4dr and they are great (though a little pricey). I actually like them better than the factory Rubi rails. They protect more area and have a 4" step for your wife.

 

a little pricey

 

Remember, if you're doing at the wife's request, you can spend whatever you want.

 

whatever you do - echoing a previous comment - a step is a step and a rocker guard is a rocker guard. Any effective guard on your set up will effectively be too high to use as a step and any step will hang low, and potentially get you hung up.

Not seen anyone with a retractable solution yet, you could try that or just do what the rest of us do and carry a mounting block . Its the polite thing to do

 

i think i will just get whatever i want and get her a stool.
