Archtype racing scam, need help with new side steps

[SullyBronco]

So.. I was one of the many on here that got scammed by archetype racing for the bronco magnum stirrups. I ordered them back in December, sent countless emails and then they went dark. Never received the product.

I purchased these mainly due to them being rust proof made of billet. I am trying to find another product that will hold up and not rust. I live in Chicago so the salt kills everything.
Does anyone have a good recommendation?
Appreciate the help.

Mountains 2 Metal is probably the next best thing:

If you're looking specifically for stirrup-like products... @Mountains2Metal would be my choice personally (@HighVelocity already posted a link). IAG also has a solution.

The problem with both of these solutions is they are both steel, so it really is going to come down to the quality of the powder coating. I will say I personally have been extremely impressed with the quality of the Mountains2Metal products. But I've also never put any of their products down low on the outside of the vehicle right in the path of the rocks/grime/etc. that gets flung up from the road.

Keep an eye open for people selling their AR stirrups, would be my suggestion. I really can't empathize how pleased I am with mine, it's a shame they were sold by someone who turned out to be a crook.

Sorry to hear you got stuck in the Archetype debacle.

As other have said, the M2M products, while not billet, are top notch quality and they are a small, USA shop who stands behind the product as well (and won't be going MIA on you lol).

I have their skids, tailgate reinforcement and interior Molle and love them.

Their steps look super nice: https://www.lethalperformance.com/mountains-2-metal-squatch-step-pair-br6ss-sk.html

I just bought these. Nice quality, good powder coat job. They are steel but the way I look at it is the price was reasonable, they look great and if they start to rust, semi-gloss rust paint will fix them pretty fast. The install is literally less than 15 minutes and they come off even faster.

M2M steps was my first upgrade. Been on 15 months. No issues whatsoever. Powder coat is holding up great. I really wanted the archetype stirrups but I couldn’t justify the cost.

You can always ask Ryan from @Mabett whether they intend to release another batch of their aluminum steps.

I installed steps from Greenlane Offroad yesterday. They are aluminum but replace the factory rock rails.
