Have had the sliders on for a few weeks, and the wife is not really finding the step height to be of great use. In contemplating a way to help her further, I was wondering if anyone had built, or considered, some sort of additional step to be used around town, but that can be easily removed when off road.
Basically something shaped like an upside down "U", with post that would go into the holes in the top of the LOD sliders, then the other side hanging down about 6" lower, with a step. So say about 10-12" wide.
The first problem I see with this is without a washer and nut holding this on, or another hole for that to run through, the steps would swing. First thought with that would be make the posts long enough to go through the bottom, and do a plate on the bottom to tighten against.
Not sure if this makes sense without a visual though...
Other possible problem is strength of the top plate.
Does anyone have any other ideas on this front?
Thanks
Matt
