I have been asking for a while to have my dealership put on side steps on the Gladiators we have. They finally came in and these Predator Steps are my favorite ones that N-Fab makes. Really impressed with the fit and finish. They hang low enough to actually use compared to the Overland factory step, but they don't really effect ground clearance too much. I want to wait until SEMA to choose rails for the truck, but these might be the ones I go with.

Best looking I have seen so far. I do like that they are aluminum and much lighter in weight than others.m

Bump to this post. Any idea what the difference between the Predator pro and the Epyx is? other than about 200 bucks? I like the roundedness of the Epyx, but I wasn't sure if it was a huge weight difference between the two. I also want the rails to be able to cover up the side pinch welds closely so you can't see them at all. Wasn't sure if either rail sits differently.

Hey @rvillano8188 just FYI I have an appointment for 12 noon this Saturday for my dealership to install my N-Fab Predator Pro steps. Once they are on I will take some pictures of the pinch welds so you will be able to see if they cover them up or not.

Awesome thank you! I'm so torn between the two types. Specifically, the Epyx looks like a smaller step overall. I believe the predators are aluminum, while the Epyx is Steel, I think...

Not certain what the Epyx are made of but the Predators are made of aluminum, looks to be a much wider, deeper, bigger step in my humble opinion. Will post pictures Saturday after work get them on. Can’t wait to get them on. Big step up to get in and down to get out.

The Epyx ones seem to leave a little bit of space in the front. I haven't seen it on a Gladiator but on the Ram it doesn't quite cover the whole bottom of the truck.

OK, I give up -- just ordered a set of the N-Fab Predator for my Hydro Blue JT. They were $486.85 with free shipping at runningboardwarehouse <DOT> com. Best price I found.

Here’s the Epyx installed on mine. The step is about 12-13” wide. Made of steel. Seem very durable.
