I like the look but how do you get in?

I like it, but I'm sure you're ready for the inevitable question... How do you get in the dang thing with no running boards? Getting out would probably be easy. Just park next to a stack of mattresses and bail!



Seriously, though, I do like it.



Shucks, beat to the punch.

Glad you are here to make friends and learn, many of us here are doing just that. However, using punctuation will speed the process.

The truck looks sweet. Have you tried looking into AMP Power Research steps? Have you thought about moving the axles inwards?...my humble opinion here is that the axles are streched outwards over a shorter body.

[jrod66]

make some out of 1" tube and mount them spring loaded, like a retractable step

something like this maybe

just lengthened obviously because of the height difference

 

[spicergear]

You won't high center that sucker! Looks neat! Maybe even want to think about short sections of heavy cable to make a step out of that way they can absorb a bump hear and there without all the retractable stuff...maybe.
