I recently purchased a 1997 LE that is missing the factory running boards. I would like some opinions in what to install. Pictures, cost, and where to order would be appreciated. Thanks.

a 97 LE?
footrat,Many sliders also function as steps. If you're going to pay money and put something on the rockers, make it functional. My Viper 4x4 sliders are flat on top, with grip tape, and function very well as steps.
I like the White Knuckle sliders but just can't shell out the dime. I would definitely have to do the full diamond plate integrated steps because of the kiddosand climbing in & out. I also really enjoy the duel purpose functionality of the www.vpr4x4.com AC-130 model sliders. They seem to be good quality and blend into the natural body lines of the 80... and $600 vs. $1,000 wins me over.I have set of White Knuckle sliders sitting in my garage to put on soon. They also have a tread plate option that can enhance their use as steps. I chose to get just the bars and plan to put grip tape on them for step usage.
The amount you want to spend, the intended use of your rig as well as shipping costs may be a deciding factor in what you want to buy. I liked the white knuckle design, I liked bolt on, they are heavy duty and also that I could drive up and pick them up to save shipping costs.
