The DV8 Offroad OE Plus Side Steps deliver practical assistance for entering and exiting your Jeep Gladiator while preserving essential ground clearance for off-road trails. Built from sturdy steel construction, these low-profile steps mount cleanly to the body pinch weld, offering a stable platform without hanging low enough to compromise approach or departure angles. Anti-slip step plates ensure reliable footing in rain, mud, or dusty conditions common during overlanding and camping trips.

Beyond easier access, the design provides protection for the rocker panels against light trail debris like small rocks or branches kicked up by the tires—though they are not built for rock sliding or heavy impact defense. The micro-texture black powder coat delivers corrosion resistance and a subtle, rugged appearance that integrates well with the Gladiator's lines. Installation targets the factory mounting points with minor drilling potentially needed depending on your specific JT setup, and most owners complete the job in about 90 minutes. These steps suit owners who want functional daily usability combined with moderate trail protection without adding bulk or sacrificing clearance. No compatibility with factory steps or sliders.
