Kwikee 12 volt electric steps, mostly used on Motorhomes, You can purchase them online. Installed a extra 12volt battery, just to run the steps on the passenger side, keeping the 24volt on the driverside.. Switches are from Napa, old GM style..

Just added a rear pinion brake to the rear, for a little added stopping power, did have to also add a Wilwood proportioning valve. All 4 corners still have the factory braking system..
Wow that's a good idea! I guess I never would have thought of adding one in addition to the stock brakes.

Ouch.....I`m not a fan of bobbing,,and even though I would never do that, I must admit the work looks very nice and well thought out. It kind of reminds me of the ZZ Top eliminator,,,, but only taller and greener.:beer:

I wouldnt use that pinion brake on the street unless you want them to catch on fire,only on very slow trails or as a parking brake.Love that truck best one yet.

Totally awesome truck!!
I am planning the same kind of extended cab and bob for my 1955 M135!
Just going with a service type box on the rear instead of a standard box.
A true inspiration for me and makes me want to get mine done even more!

Could you provide more information on the retractable steps please??????
Nevermind, he already answered this one. Just a thought, you could use magnetic switches to actuate the steps like RVs do too, or just a plunger switch in the jam.

Sweet truck Toxic. And as has already been asked, interior shots?
