I took the factory running boards off about 3 days after I bought my 2000 TLC. With baby #1 on the way, wife wants them back on or a reasonable alternative (285s make it just hard enough to get in for her) I like the way it looks without running boards, and wouldn't mind an aftermarket nerf bar. Anyone know of a particular item, manufacturer or model number to suggest? Most sites that sell these don't offer a specific option for a TLC, just the Tundra's and Tacoma's. Don't know if the Tundra has the same height frame members as the TLC, in terms of the no drilling u-bolts that most seem to use in attaching the bars to the vehicle.

I'm sure I will have plenty of responses as to why i should spend the money on Slee sliders, but it isn't in the budget and I don't do that type of offroading to necessitate the purchase.

Thanks.
