Beefy, clean, and flush describes my ideal step. Not searching for a low-step, the more level with the bottom of the door, so there is minimum gap, the better. Feel like the Zroad Trailx.R1 drives home the idea of what I am looking but curious what similar styles others have come across in their hunt since that seems to be a popular choice in some of the posts that I've seen! Please drop your recs below!

I went with the JCR slider, thought it was going to be a minimal step and mostly a frame mounted slider. When I got it bolted up for the first time I realized it sticks out a lot more than what I thought it would. It's level with the frame and comes up just shy of reaching the door. I'm going to cut about 4" off the mounting legs so I can get it tucked in tighter and nearly touching the pinch weld, but if you're going for a nice rugged step it's a good choice for that. Comes with rock lights and hi-lift jack points too. Install wasn't too bad either.

We have the GoRhino Dominator Xtreme DSS slider steps and I like them. My only regret is I wish they had about a 20 degree upward angle but my goal is more slider than step. My 3 kids and short-ish wife love them getting in especially on 3” of lift and 37’s. They come out at a dead-flat 90 deg angle from the body/frame and work with my RekGen front mud flaps. As for durability - I’ve USED them as sliders (on rocks and roots), steps and also jack points. Quality is good

ZRoadZ. Same top and bottom height as factory. 4" from floor to top of rail. Haven't bounced them off of anything yet, but the 4" made a big improvement for our fellow old folks we load in and take to dinner. Enjoy your new Bronco.

Is there a way to modify the brackets on the factory steps to raise them a bit? I know on my F-250 you could swap F-150 brackets on and it raised the steps perfect as they had less drop.

Metalcloak is a better option as a slider but a worse option as intended for a step they are high and tight they are not frame mount but metal cloak don’t make junk ask anyone that has ever used their products on a jeep they have high lift jack points and claimed to have been fully tested on the rubicon trail.
