Nice work! Just curious, are they welded on? Can we get some shots of how they're mounted? I know the main goal was steps for your son, but will they also function as sliders(can they handle the weight of the vehicle?)
Not trying to nitpick or anything. I'll be fabbing up my own set of sliders so I'm checking out all the related threads. Wanna see what all my options are.
EDIT: I see, you already had the sliders under there. Just added on the steps. Still curious about how they're mounted. I noticed the angle iron.

relax man. i dont think there is anything wrong with what you posted. its a fuctional piece of equipment designed for the ingress and egress of mini-cheesyxj's. i get it.
on the other hand, i can see a kids leg falling between the inboard and outboard rails...i would put some expanded steel or something on top of those steps.
i've got three little ones...sometimes they get stuck in the weirdest places.
