I have them on my 90 and I like them. They’re tucked in pretty close so they don’t really affect off-roading much in my opinion but I also don’t really do anything where I would need full on sliders.

Also, they’re pretty nice at keeping a lot of debris from hitting the side of the truck from the front wheels. They do help getting into the back and I never use access height so these are also handy for my wife for getting in and out. I use them to mount and dismount now that I’m used to them also.

I got the all black ones from Vulkan and the quality is great. Paid a local shop to mount them but then I had to take them off and put them on the correct side since the shop mounted them on the wrong sides. So I can vouch for the fact that they’re also not hard to remove if you need to. But when they’re on they’re rock solid. I’m about 265 and I can bounce on this and rock the whole truck with no flex from the step bars.
