🚨New Product Alert🚨 

The New Owl Side Steps!

Our most anticipated product ever. Side steps, nerf bars, rock sliders, running boards have many names, but they can be one of the most functional parts of your van regardless of what you call them. There are a lot of critical design criteria that go into a good side step. 

Design: The shape of our sides steps was carefully considered to offer the optimal blend of function and protection. We went big with the front step as it is the most used. Then the side steps taper back toward the rear of the van. This tapered design allows the van to more easily navigate tight terrain and not get hung up on rocks, logs etc. Additionally, we extended the driver's side step almost all the way down the van to offer additional rocker protection and storage.

Works for Revel (Storyteller coming soon!): While these steps are easily installed on Sprinter 144" vans (170" coming soon), we also designed them to bolt right up to the brackets that come on Revel and Storyteller. This means you can upgrade your Revel or Storyteller without having to drop water tanks etc. When ordering simply select your model of van and we will include the appropriate brackets to bolt right to the factory brackets on your van

Side steps are now live on our website under the accessories tab!
