Go big or go home! *note that it works both open and closed :)

Muh widdle bare hippy feets hurtz jus lookin at that.... ;) Like the steps on the M1079, great traction but HELL on bare feet (and I'm at the beach 90% of my life). I had to carpet over the stairs to my habitat. Even the dog wouldn't step on those things. LOL ymmv

I was kinda thinking the same. In any event, it's a $2000 solution to a $0 problem. The OEM and similar fixed steps work just fine. But I wouldn't give 2-cents for something that you have to get out to lower (so you can get out to lower it). Hanging upside down out the door to deploy a step...

One of the ones posted above is powered (pic). That's a still from the FB video. The author didn't share where they got it, though.

My issue with deployable steps is, if they aren't motorized how do you get them down? Do you just sit in your truck and wave frantically at other people in the parking lot and point down in hopes that they will walk over and lower your step? Do you take a passenger and have them come around...

I hate the A1R bumper, btw: :)

Oh it's a two man lift for sure. The A1R had a lot of material removed and the area at the shackles elevated (seemingly to make it easier to access the shackles but from my experience the shackles are easier to put on the A0 version). By opening up the shackle area and leaving the back open...

Hmmmmmmmmmm The bumpers on these things are pretty cheesy. Its likely that the bumpers/bumperettes are intended to bend and take any damage as opposed to telegraphing it to the frame. We've all seen countless bent bumpers on these trucks (especially on the gimpy weak A1R bumpers that have had...

I think that's because the cab would crush the privates toes if said private were standing on the bumper while raising the cab (and don't think some didn't try)... ;)

Not that I've seen. UK eBay had some last time I looked.

I like the idea of an automated step that comes down when the door opens. But at the end of the day, it becomes another moving part to break off-roading. I guess it'd viability/longevity would be based on truck use. From an engineering standpoint, I'd likely just have a flat step that sits...

I've seen steps that fold down. Just another thing to do to get into or out of the truck. I've seen the cable replaced with motorcycle drive chain. Nothing I would consider an upgrade
