Tacoma Sidestep Installation

Рет қаралды 66,872

There's a ton of options out there for sidesteps, rock sliders, running boards, nerf bars. It will all depend on your plans for the truck and lifestyle. I'll be installing sidesteps for my Tacoma for ingress and egress. It would be cool to install rocksliders, but hey, this is more beneficial for me now because of other driver's and passengers. Let me know if you have any questions in the comments section below about this installation.
Here's the link to the sidesteps I purchased: www.ebay.com/itm/184505265888

When installing these, a small bead of silicone around the floors bolt holes will helps seal out moisture. Especially in any rust prone regions. :)

1. What not to waste your money on because you should have just bought a sedan in one easy “step” Pun intended. Lame Stick to sports cars. You should never buy these ridiculous body mounted grandma street steps. They are intended for dealerships to mark up the price of the vehicle and give you the illusion that these are an off-road accessory, when it couldn’t be farther from the truth.

@dwinkler0128 2 жыл бұрын

Yes sir! They help a little with rocks hitting the rockers if you have A/T tires and majority of Tacoma owners aren't off-roading. Most people just worry about their own shit and not what anyone else is doing.
