IAG rock rail retrofit steps….we want to know what YOU want!!

[TX-Hans]

@IAG Performance Really liking these, and deciding between V1 and V2, as well as other similar product. These are currently the front runner for me. Saw you had some measurements in this thread like depth of step but would like to get some more measurements, if possible, to help decide.

Width of step at front
Width of step at back (near rock rail)
Distance from ground to top of step for Sasquatch height Bronco (Wildtrak, First Edition, etc.) for both V1 and V2
Distance from door entry plastic threshold to top of step for both V1 and V2

V1, interior accent options and/or just black. I'd probably buy these instead of any new rock rails because I like the look of the factory rock rails. Do you have an estimated cost range?

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!

Is the blue lightening or velocity or neither?

Is the blue lightening or velocity or neither?

Neither. The blue is called "New Ford Blue" and is fairly close to the blue interior accents across the different models.

I have looked at everything under the sun, and I like the promise of the full length option from IAG the best (without a render to confirm). Integration w/factory rails, use as a rock slider, and a lower profile 4-5" wide would be perfect.

@IAG Performance any idea of when you'll finish the full length option?

Currently, we are thinking the full length would be mid/late April at the earliest.

Any sort of kick out for the rear of the full length planned, or going uniform width? Looking for options that make kid climbing easier

Pre ordered.... V2 steps for 2 door

 

[Toffen]

These are the best designed steps in form and function in my opinion.

I’ll throw my vote in for the full length version. (V2 height)

Received yesterday, on today. Absolutely awesome @IAG Performance !

If I may ask, how do these differ from the new offering from Ford, the removable hoop step? Trying to decide between the two.

The IAG is for the Ford Rock Rails.

The Ford version is for new rail version being offered, not the existing Rock Rails that are standard equip on Badlands and FE.

So if you ordered a Wildtrak you would need to order the new non Rock Rails with hoop or the Rock Rail option and IAG.

I ordered a Wildtrak with what they call "tube step powder coated" which to me looks like a running board. I don't like the running board look so what do I change on my order so I can use your product; eliminate both Ford options?

Not my product, just was answering your question.

but in order for these to work you would need to order your Wildtrak with the Ford Rock Rails.
