Here is another benefit of steps.

I might need to has my spouse is smaller than meBuy a step stool. It will be a lot less expensive! Tie a rope to one of the legs and hoist it in once your in the seat!![]()
That is amazing you did that for your wife , that is awesome now if you could get the rights I don’t know how to say it correctly, you could have a winning product there that could help a lot of people out there in similar situationsMy wife has bionic knees so I built steps that can be removed for offroading:![]()
Okay thank you so much I will check them out , thanks for sending your picturesI went with the LOD Destroyers for my JLUR, which is lifted just shy of 4" above stock height and on 40's. These sliders replace the factory rock rails, so they don't cost much ground clearance at all but provide a solid step for my wife to climb in and out. She's 4'10.75" and can walk under my side view mirror without hitting her head. I'm 5'11" and just step right in with an assist from the a-pillar grab handle.
You may want to check out the LOD Destroyers. They fit your criteria as far as providing a solid step without being a snag point, all while being a great bang for the buck. Plus, you're about 10" taller than my wife and your Jeep will be about 9" shorter than mine.

No problem at all! Another thing worth mentioning, is I added extra grab handles above the doors for another grabbing option for my little Mrs. She never uses them, and says the a-pillar grab handle is in the perfect spot for her.Okay thank you so much I will check them out , thanks for sending your pictures
Yeah... I've had this happen to me before, where I'm pulling into a parking spot and some jerk-wad just flings their door open in front of me at the last second without looking. A real PITA, and nothing you can do to prevent it no matter how slow you are pulling into the spot. People need to pay attention and look before opening a door! I now have the 2-door version of these N-FAB nerf bars installed on my current Jeep, so I pity the poor fool that opens their door in front of me now! That thing'll take the whole door off! LOLHere is another benefit of steps.

^ This EXACTLY in my case. Wife didn't even want grab handles; just likes the a-piller grab handle. And same thing about the footing. All good now! LOLNo problem at all!

The 1st couple times that she climbed in, it was awkward for her. She was stepping up with her left foot to get in the front passenger side, and having to shuffle about to slide in. I showed her how much easier it is to step up with her right foot, so her left can seamlessly swing in.
Okay thank you so much I love the pictures , they do look pretty cool I must sayThere are combination step/rock slider accessories that work great.
I have a set of Westin triple tube step/rock sliders that bolt to the frame which really helps avoid any damage to your rockers & body pinch weld area. They do help those who are vertically challenged gain access to the cab without compromising clearance.
