I saw this before on a Chinese website about cars. Apparently it was a factory option or something. Carsnewschina or something like that had it in a picture but that was really it. Nothjng else and I haven't tried looking for it. I do like the placement though

I believe I saw that ladder on e-bay a while back. For some reason the guy could not climb onto the tire so he made a ladder.
Here is another idea...

Top looks like it's attached to the rain gutters, would snap off like a dry twig if you put a foot on that ladder.

You can throw a step ladder in the cargo area if you think you ever need to go up on the roof.

I have a full size roof rack, 48" x 72" and can access all points by standing on rock sliders, rear tires, and Smittybuilt 'beaver step' in hitch.

That came from the China factory. I like the raised roof. I doubt any of them made it's way to the states.

Sweet, my 96 has door pins instead. The bumper opener is for public use,since I am on the beach a lot. And the jeep is set up for it. Shower in the roofrack. Campstove and pans, cantilevered table. Lots of up-travel in the suspension and progressive bumpstops for going fast and jumping camelhumps.

That is a 'cargo net envelope' from the wife's Chevrolet Uplander mini-van. Many of them should work. Look for a used one for $10 or so.

I might have to get that to 'decorate' my rig. It would go with the expedition style but might get hung up on stuff. I already lost the passenger mirror to trees .
