Lower entry step for jeep

HI, Just bought a 2002 Jeep Wrangler to use as tow vehicle. We both have knee issues and were wondering what others have done to modify their jeep to make the entry easier.
Thanks
Pictures welcomed

  • A Google search for Jeep Nerf Bars brings up lots of different types, including some of those above.
  • Though not common I've read a few owners that lowered their Jeep a bit instead of lifting it so it was easier to get in and out of.

    Here are a couple ideas. As mentioned there are automatic ones *click here*


    Others make drop steps like these from Rampage, which are good if you are not doing rock crawling, which I doubt yo uare. *click here*


    You can find single steps if you search for Jeep drop step


    A set of grab handles will also help you too.
  • I have a 2013 Jeep Wrangler and installed an "AMP Powerstep". The step will fold down when the door is open and fold back up in the travel position when the door is closed. Was installed in Feb 13 and no issues with the step so far.

    No picture but do a google and you will find a lot of information on it.

    Safe travels, Bill.
