Steps for ACE rock sliders

[articcatbill]

I put the ACE rock sliders on my gladiator. I really like them but my wife still has trouble getting in my gladiator. I have looked around for a step to attach to the slider, it is 2" tube. They have them for UTVs but it's for 1.75 tube. Warrior products make one for 2" but you have to cut a slot in the tube. Maybe I could attach the Nextgen steps to my rubi rails but not sure it they would fit past the slider.

Anyone find a solution for this? Ideas? Thanks!

Are you talking about drop steps, something like this? Or just a flat surface on the rail to step on?

Yes drop steps just like those. They require you to cut a slit in the tube though to fasten. I would really prefer not to have to do that. I was looking for something to clamp on the tube. Thanks for the reply!

Yea, guessing they would have to be keyed so they don't rotate. You could do those, cut the ends off and get a 2 inch ID clamp to weld on, like something you'd use for a sport bar, but there's still the possibility of them rotating without something keeping them from doing that, like a machine screw. You could drill a hole in the clamp, put a nutsert in the sliders and that would key it to keep it from turning, if the slit isn't the way to go. When you remove them, you just put the screw in to cover the hole.

Thanks for the help!! I think I'm going to have to do something along those lines. I found these but the are for 1.75 tubing. But I could also cut the end off and replace with the 2" you sent:
