Suggest some step rails for my '10 Frontier!

Hello everyone,

Recently purchased a Grey 2010 Frontier SE Crew Cab 4x4 and i'm loving it. I'm wanting to get some chrome step rails for it. Was hoping some people could recommend some for me.

Thanks!

My suggestion - Buy Sliders instead

If you are NEVER going to go off road then Steps are fine. If you are EVER going to go off road then you want some sliders.

Hefty Fabworks and Shrockworks are companies to consider. Sliders can also be locally made for about the same price, if you can find a competent shop.

Stock style 'Step rails' cannot take off road abuse and can actually cause body damage when they collapse. Take a look at Hefty's design. They have tread plates on top that act as step area's.

Good Luck!

Yea i never plan on going off road for it so Steps will be fine.

I checked those websites, Shrockworks doesn't offer sliders for an extended bed Crew Cab.

No kidding! Thats why i took my steprails off! Saw what happened to a buddy last time we went offroad. More damage than good. Although the wife liked them.

Nabraham- If you lived anywhere near Edmonton, Alberta i'd say come and take mine! Came off my 07 Crew Cab long bed. They just take up garage space for me.

Haha! I live in Ohio, not exactly Canada. Are they chrome? I'd definitely be interested in buying them off of you though if they are still in good shape...as long as you want to sell.

Like i said, you come and get them and they're yours. However they are not crome. The are OEM "Dark Grey" not chrome though. And they are still covered in crud from wheeling and winter roads.
I pre dirtyed them for you!

Nabraham check the buy and sell section. They come
Up all the time, but I'd sweet talk Adam Steinbring for some shipping quotes. Can't beat that.
