I have steps and they do decrease off-roading capability. Are side step bars better? Should I switch?
SWITCH.
I prefer frame mounted step bars.
Anything that mounts to the body is not preferred in my truck builds because I live in areas where there's a lot of salt and deicer used in the winter.
Holes drilled in body introduces a point of body corrosion.
Good point...however Fords already have the holes, pull the rubber plugs, and add the oem bars. I'm thinking a late GM would be the same.
Not many use the old frame mounted nerf bars, on newer trucks.
