If you were going to buy a side step because your wife is....well in need of step. Would you buy the Ford step or the 4WP?

Uh, that's yella fella. lol
Its even Cyber Orange.
Sidesteps are absolutely brutal to your ground clearance. Keep that in mind if you plan on off-roading. Its the feature I like least on my Tremor and they would already be gone if I wasn't about to sell the truck.
With that said, go OEM. They are really nice looking and seemed really high quality when I used them in person.
exactly.Uh, that's yella fella. lol
ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!! Got me...................I will park near a school bus first thing and take pix.exactly.
Neither. I would get auto sliders from Rock Slide Engineering. Tried and true from what I hear.If you were going to buy a side step because your wife is....well in need of step. Would you buy the Ford step or the 4WP?
I’ve seen both in person. The 4WP side-steps are bigger, and more durable. It all depends on your intended usage.
I personally got the 4WP side-steps for the extra parking lot protection. But they’ll also help me from bashing my truck on the trails.
I like the OEM, but the power steps are very cool.

I seriously considered them but we get A LOT of salt on the roads in the winter and really worry about the electronicsNeither. I would get auto sliders from Rock Slide Engineering. Tried and true from what I hear.

That is a great question. When I referenced the Power Steps I assumed they would be making a version to fit the Bronco. I referenced the Ranger version simply as an example of the technology.power steps are an oem option on the F150 and I have them on my wife's lariat. 3.5 years running and no issues. When they come from the factory, they are hard wired into the center cluster/menu.
there are 2 issues here:
- isn't the bronco on a new platform? In others words, the current Ranger is on the old platform and will get the new platform next year.
- also power steps aftermarket plugs into the OBD port and not hard wired
I was not aware of this, I would prefer hard-wired...- also power steps aftermarket plugs into the OBD port and not hard wired
