Factory Step Bars
I am looking for a new left side step bar for my supercab, I checked direct ford parts, and they want $300 for just one of the steps. Does anyone have any ideas where I might find them cheaper? I will just buy a set of aftermarkets if I have to pay that for one new one...

About the only place I could think of other than a Ford dealer would be a junk yard. I've never had any luck finding wrecked Super Duties around here though (they tend to fix them rather than scrapping).
If you do decide to go aftermarket, I have a set of Westin Platinum Wheel to Wheel step bars that I am selling in the classified section here.

If you are interested send me a PM.

Just be aware that there are two different diameters of step bars available, 4" and 5". Plus the chrome or black option, plus the cab length model. Ends up being a whole bunch of possible part numbers.
I know because I bought a set for my truck last month. I think the 5" diameter looks better on the SD than the smaller 4".
I got a set of chrome 5" dia for a SC for $225 plus shipping. I can get you the dealer contact if anyone is interested. It was an eBay dealer.

There are also apparently 2 separate types available for each model; Back in January, when I bought my truck, I asked at a dealer for steps; the first quote was for $800 EACH for the steps, and then another (more knowledgeable) salesman showed me a set for $275 for the pair. Guess which one I bought? 
I'm a little far away for part numbers, though...

As I recall, that was for the step bars. I was so shocked I forgot to be outraged. That's why I talked to the second person.
Was a little concerned, too... I'm short enough that steps of some kind are required to get into the truck.

Well I'm all for the cheapest alternative, I just got my truck in june and I sure hate to spend all this money on it. No one else even notices, but I know its there, and it bothers me to no end. I'm tempted to just order Harley headlights and call it a day...
