Truck steps

anyone tell me where to get cab entry steps made specifically for our trucks? I'll take all kinds- nerf steps, stainless runners, hoop steps, disappearing steps, etc. I don't want to get a universal type where you have to manipulate or add angle iron (avoiding to have to run around town)to make it work. I am looking for ones specifically made for our trucks, with angle or structural steels/fasteners/brackets included in their kits. Please advise, and thanks in advance.

I have a pair of chrome loop-style steps, about a foot wide, with a flat tread where you step, just above the continuous loop.

These are angled out-ward at the bottom of the rocker-panel.

They screw through the sheet-metal on the unseen side of the rocker.

I took these off of a 1979 W-150.

I just put these on mine and am quite happy with them, they are a universal fit for most dodge trucks including ours. There was no other parts that were really required, but I used some bigger screws that I already had to mount them.

Yep, that's kinda what mine look like, with an adjustable bracket that will bolt onto a flat surface at several different angles. Just sheetmetal screws in to the floor on mine. I was thinking about reinforcing the floor where they mount to make them stiffer, but they're OK as is and I don't want to tear out the whole floor if they ever get caught on something.
