OBS Step Sliders

Can anyone recommend someone who makes step sliders for OBS Fords? I am not talking the mass produced rocker panel mounted stuff. I realize I could find someone local to fab some up, but was wondering if there is an already known and recommended person who builds/sells step OBS sliders as a routine business.

Specifically looking for something for a 1997 F350 Crew Cab.

They do, just not for your application.

those look nice. I've got AMP research steps on my F150 and lover the power drop affect.

For the F350 just looking for straight sliders with a nice step (a bit of drop maybe but now power)

Anybody else got ideas of who makes some?

What do you consider "step sliders"

Steps are just that and sliders are just that. They cannot really be a combination and be useful doing both

I mean sliders with a step

Some sliders have no step - just a bar and just meant to protect the truck.
Then there are steps which really don't serve as sliders - aka nerf bars

Then there are some sliders that are more than just a bar and they have a place to step on such as Slee Step Sliders on my Land Cruiser.

A contrast of sliders - step on the right, no step on the left

A shot of step sliders on for Land Cruiser below. Just wondering if anyone knew of someone who specializes in something similar for OBS trucks.

Sliders by definition are a li profile bar that allows the rocks to "slide"

A stip stick out so you can step on it

Right and step sliders do both. Maybe this helps, these are for a Tundra, I want these but for OBS.

Slee - Toyota Tundra Sliders

Notice the clear description:The Slee SliderSteps for the Tundra is a fully functional step, but also a rock slider at the same time. I guess not too common for OBS or nobody makes them as off the shelf product.
