Drivers-side step for getting into cab?

I have a 2001 F250 SD 4x4.

My wife has difficulty getting into the truck from the drivers side. There is no "grab handle" on that side to assist.

Where would I look for a bolt-on step that would help her get into the cab from the drivers side?

Please, could you give me some websites of an aftermarket supplier for this step?

How much might something like this cost?

Drivers-side step for getting into cab?

i too would like to hear any answers you may get here..

my wife would be just happy for something to hold on to while trying to climb in the cab. she hangs on to the steering wheel to step up into this f350 4x4, but has nothing on the right side,
which makes it difficult to hoist the little girl into the car seat..

i have the stock ford type running boards,, what kind of options are there out there,

thanks,

lee

ps. thanks ken for the spell checker. i need it bad.

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 14-Dec-00 AT 01:37 PM (EST)[/font][p]There is a guy who simply purchased a passenger side handle along with the screw caps and installed it on the drivers side with a couple heavy duty sheet metal screws. It looks factory. As far as steps, I have installed Kodiak Sidewinder steps and absolutley love them. They automatically extend and retract as the door is opened and closed, eliminating any ground clearance problems and for the guys that don't like the running board look, are a great option and a lower step. Do a search for Kodiak Sidewinder. FourWheelParts carries them for $190 each.
