Hello Bronco6G fam! I’m looking for some feedback. We are considering a few step designs to retrofit onto the factory rock rails. They are bolt on and bolt off in minutes. At the moment, we have 3 versions on the table:

V1 is at the height of the top of the rock rail.
V2 is approximately 2” below the top of the rock rail.
V3 is approximately 4” below the top of the rock rail.

I believe there is a place in the market for all 3 but am looking for feedback.

V1 is the least obtrusive and likely the best of you don’t want to remove every time you mall crawl or actually go off road.
V2 will certainly make it easy to get in and out after a lift and big tires and still maintains good ground clearance.
V3 will be an excellent option for the vertically challenged.

I will update the post with renderings of V2 and V3 tomorrow.

Additionally I’m looking for insight on colors. All are finished in a course Anti-skid powder coat. In the front of the step is a small decorative name plate. We have done this in both a spot welded version that would be the same color as the step, as well as a riveted version that can be raw stainless or powder coated in an accent color.

The question is, would you prefer a spot welded one piece version or a replaceable one with an accent color? If you like the replaceable one, would you all like basic colors like red and blue or does an option of factory ford body colors appeal to you?

I know this is a complex series of questions but we are trying to gauge the market before starting production next week. Again I will update the post as we get the other versions prototyped in the coming days. For now here are some teasers to better explain the direction we are going. I welcome feedback!

I'm likely V1 or V2. If you're looking at accent colors, I'd recommend the interior trim accents, like badlands orange or black diamond blue. My way of making the fridge magnet a little more cohesive

V1 for sure to keep the clearance. I would be an all black vote. If I can ask, how deep is the step?

Great feedback! It’s certainly something we are considering. The blue pictured is close to the interior accent color.

Approximately 5” off the rail. Which is pretty much flush with non sas flares.

I personally like the red accent and that is your part of your company's colors anyways. Any plans for a full length version for the 4-door?

These look awesome! I defintley like the option to have the replacable name plate with different colors just would still have to maintain a good price point. Do you guys have an idea of when these could be avaliable?

Well that throws a wrench in the plans! Id love to see those before making the decision. It's ok, us Bronco buyers have gotten used to waiting, so it's all good. Not a dig at IAG btw.
