Side steps for a 2005 LJ?

[AllenTC2]

Took a young lady out for dinner Saturday night....she had a bit of trouble getting into the Jeep. LOL

I can't find any side steps that are CLEARLY for the LJ. Is there such a thing or does any ol' TJ step work? Can anyone recommend a good basic one that isn't $200+?

If you want to really impress her next time, just open the door for her and whip out a leather stirrup.

What about these?

They work for both regular TJs and Unlimited model TJs.

Considering your budget. I like the old school ones. I think I've found these even cheaper too. After removing my old 80's style nerf bars or whatever they're called. I'm just going to use a set of these. I'm 6'3" and get complaints about getting up into my Jeep too. And it's only stock height.

I love the stirrup idea. LOL I think I found a Smittybilt product that'll work. Should match the front bumper too.

If nothing else, as soon as she saw that thing flopped over the edge, it would get a laugh out her. Worst case scenario is she likes it there.

Maybe that’s not the worst case...

Lol. I thought the same thing after I sent that. Hell, the more we talk about it, the more I want to try it.

Maybe stirrups up by the sun visor would be better.

And somehow my side steps has also grown to include a rear bumper and tire carrier. So it all matches, ya know?

Hmm. That's risky waters. Maybe on the third date? Heck, go for it! Some gals wouldn't mind overhead stirrups on the first date.
