The Carnivore Side Steps from Quadratec are a rugged and functional upgrade for Jeep Wranglers, including models like the JK, JL, and JT Gladiator. These side steps are 72 inches long and 6.25 inches wide, providing ample space for a secure foothold. The steps feature a dimpled die-tread design stamped into the carbon steel, ensuring excellent traction in all weather conditions. This makes them especially handy for lifted Jeeps or those with larger tires.
One of the standout features is their no-hassle installation, as they come with 5mm thick steel brackets that attach directly to the Jeep’s body mounting points—no drilling or welding required. Additionally, their black textured powder coating offers durability and corrosion resistance, while their aggressive design complements the look of Carnivore front and rear bumpers. The side steps also make accessing rooftop cargo and removing Freedom Panels or soft tops more convenient(Performance Detailing)(Quadratec.com).
With a three-year warranty and a price point around $499, these side steps blend style, strength, and ease of use, making them a popular choice for Jeep enthusiasts looking to enhance both aesthetics and functionality(Off-Road Expo).
