I saw an older guy like myself use a two-step stool to get up into his rig downtown the other day! Then he pulled it up in the truck and laid it on the seat!

Haha
I would like it to be a little more permanent. But that is the point I am getting older and would like the climb to be safer.

I like this and looks homemade. I just don't have the ability to do it myself. I would also like a flat treaded piece to step on.

Do you have the ability to attach something like these to the frame?

I found that a lot of things I wanted for my truck were “custom” because these are not only orphan year(s) trucks but also not enough demand for suppliers to gear up...

Perhaps find something that works for another application and adapt it to yours?

Fabrication ability sure helps fill the gaps, good hunting!

Agreed
I have found on this truck the things that make unique, 4x4 and long bed have made it difficult to find parts for anyway. Will most likely have to fabricate a few things.
