Step Suggestions

Another vote for Amp Power Steps
My Wife is also ~5-1 and found the stock steps painful on here knees as they are too high. Power steps are expensive ($1600). I got mine used with a bad motor for $250 + ~100 for new motor. Best purchase so far as she loves them and I can switch them off to have no step when I am driving alone.
And I like the clean look when retracted.

Oh and thread is here -

I'm really curious... post up a link to the Isteps you are referring to. I searched and am finding nothing online.

The thing I find strange about the dealer installed steps is that you can look through the gap between the body and the step. Reminds me of picnic table seats.

Toyota four runners type steps that appear to be a part of the truck, by design, look much better, IMO.

Maybe someone can chime in. I recently bought a 2020 Lariat crew cab Previous owner ordered tech package with no steps. I like the look of the factory steps. I measured and they are a bit over 4".I am considering the Isteps either 4"or the 5". Is it a optical illusion that the Isteps have brackets that push them way out?
My wife is short and really needs steps for entry/exit. I think the 5" maybe more functional but the 4" maybe a bit more tucked and look better. Are the brackets for Isteps way long and push them out? Thanks for the help.

Could always go with something like this.

Westin HDX Drop Steps. Come in choice of stainless or plain steel. They look exactly the same, but the SS model comes with bright finish step plates, and Steel comes with Black step plates. They are very solid. Bolted on to existing threaded holes with minimum hassle. Cost around $500 - $600, depending if you want stainless or not ($100 diff).

Wife is less than 5' tall and she says they are perfect. They tuck in pretty nice, and only the smallest gap visible between bars and bodywork. See below for some photos of them installed on my truck. I didn't take any with the door open.

Looks good and it's nice to see them on a supercab.
