Bed Side Steps again

I found several threads that are a few years old but wanted to check and see what if any of you are using for side steps to access tool boxes and such. The GF's F150 has some sweet OEM steps but nothing seems to fit the F350's and Ford doesn't list one for it. I did find these which look pretty good.

Just wondering what other options might be available.

I just put these running boards on by DeeZee.
I think they have just discontinued the box boards. Don't know why.
I'll look tonight for the part number.

Thanks guys. Maybe I wasn't clear. I don't want running boards. Looking for some fold out steps like they have on the F150's.

One of the problems you run into is that unless the steps extends a LONG way out, the step is too close to the truck and you are at the wrong angle, leaning back when on the step...

I tried one on my 2012 and couldn't use it...
so I opted for a little ladder - step stool I put in the bed and just reach over and grab it

lol, my dad built one for his truck. He was a little short on one end and couldn't reach his tool box. I still have it. Maybe I will just toss it in the back.
