Side step users often fit side steps to enable easy access to and from the vehicle- this is a problem when going off road as they bend break and cause snagging however these are heavy duty side steps made from 5mm steel plate with 50mm tube backed up by a additional 2x40mm tube supports. The joints are TiG welded for a smooth OEM finish. the other benefit of this rock slider/side step combo is that the outer bar pushes away small trees and scrub from the body work of the vehicle. they can also be used to slide around thick trees when grip is minimal. these units require no additional drilling just unscrewing and unclipping of the plastic OEM parts.
