Default XJ Sliders with steps

Guys,
I'm at a crossroads my GF is 5 foot tall my XJ is lifted 5" on 33's, and she HATES getting in the Jeep. I am looking for a set of sliders that have a built in and beefy step. Kinda similar to the pic below. Does anyone know of a company who makes these? I do have long arms so that posses and issue too.


I wasn't 100% sure where to put this post, so admins, please move is needed. Thanks in advance guys and before anyone asks, I did search both Google and the forum

I believe Olympic offroad offers a step slider.

What about a simple rope ladder?

These are standard sliders with tube step. You would have to customize any of them for an XJ, if you wanted a drop down step.
I think Warrior makes a nerf bar that has a lower step that bolts to it.

My 5 year old boy climbs on the step then jumps.

Guys I have a set of these I bought 2 yrs. ago at a yard sale for $125 thinking they would fit My XJ. But when I started to install them they were too long and need to be shortened not a lot but some. Other than that they fit perfect to the frame and to the door pinch seam.


If anyone wants them $125 + shipping, I did sand and paint them with Rustoleum. They can be wired together and shipped as is I think.

Those look a little weak, but their flat bar ones with the steps look good. I am going to hit up a local shop and see if I can get something custom made, if I do, I will post up here and let you guys know what I find.

Or you could just go on all fours and be her man-servant and let her step on your back.

LOL, I told her I'd put a 5 gallon bucket on a rope to help her in and out.

I added a strap to where the seatbelt bolts on the upper side for my wife she is 5"1" and uses it to get in, works for her.
