Thinking a 12V Power Wheels Jeep is next instead of a JL or JT. Nice steps, glad there are more options coming out, but those are not a East Coast Jeep mod with the snow and salt, unfortunately those would freeze up and salt would deteriorate them quickly 😢

Hi doctor Jan, having 2 young boys and 3.5” lift my OEM sliders don’t cut it any more . I checked the automated rock sliders but they are kind of pricey. What kind of non electric solders you might recommend for jku that is not for crawling but great for overland ( I have RTT at top) and kids can get in without struggling in range of 500$ . Thanks

That's a great question. Have you checked out hooke off road? Also, you can try to reach out to Aries for these power steps and mention garage couple, they may give you a decent discount. Worth a shot!

Hey guys! love the content! I have been watching your videos for a little while now but finally subscribed lol! I love the idea of the powered steps but I do have concerns that maybe you could address? So my concerns are how well are they built? How long will they last if they are exposed to the trail environment regularly (usually 2-3 days a week) lots of vibrations, dust, mud, water... Im concerned the actuators/motors would last very long. Additionally if the motors start to fail and the step sags than that would be something that would get ripped off if youre wheeling in some areas where you might encounter some tougher obstacles? Again love the content! Have a great day!
