I have been looking for a while for a set of bars that look like the N-Fabs (wheel to wheel, 6 step bars) that mount to the frame rather then pinch weld on the Dodges.

Anyone have any leads? Found some CattlemanHD ones that don't look too bad, but haven't found their step model yet; only the board model.

Pinch weld? Please enlighten me because i was going to get some 6step N-fabs for my mega cab. I thought they bolted to the frame like every other bar.

Here is how the N-Fab's mount:

See the complete lack of support between the mount point and the frame? Get a big enough person to use those steps and you will be flexing your cab at the lowest welded seam.

I guess I just didn't look hard enough before, came across a set of bars this morning after posting this thread made by Tough Country. (clicky)

They are a good bit more expensive then the N-Fab, but they mount direct to the frame.

Also found the Bodyguard Truck Accessories (clicky) steps.

Thats really a piss poor mounting idea for the N-fab. I really like the bars tho. could weld up up some supports to those bars that run to the frame.
