    I am about to purchase a 2020 ORP and want the “old style” Predator step bars. These are the ones that Toyota sold for the current generation a few years ago before they changed the design of the step bars. Does anyone know who manufactured them for Toyota or if they can be purchased from an aftermarket source? Thank you for any information that can be provided.

    You sure you aren't thinking of the aftermarket NFab steps that look similar to the OE Toyota predator steps?

    1bad2k you are correct. Those are the ones I am looking for. Thank you for refreshing my memory. I found vendors online that still sell them.

    My kid’s bought the old style of N-Fab Cab Length Nerf Bars for Father’s Day a couple years ago; think mom picked them up for $198 & free shipping from here… See Link: https://runningboardwarehouse.com/

    Keep in mind that the n-fab come with the main tube in 2” or 3” diameter. In my opinion, the 3” looks much better. It closes the gap between the tube and the rocker panel. Looks a little more “beefy”.

    After looking at pics of both, I ended up buying the 3”. They are still sitting in the box in my garage along with all of the other stuff I have already bought for it until the truck gets here.

    Yeah, it doesn’t take long for prices to jump up in today’s market… I like them but would much rather have some true beefy rock sliders either welded or bolt on that I know will definitely hold up on the trails.
