Billet BumpStep XL availability status:
It’s HEAVY! It’s HANDMADE in America! It’s made from SOLID billet aluminum, and it’s now available in the XL 24” wide size! It’s COOLER than the original design, and it’s the best step-bumper protector you can buy. We make the Billet BumpStep XL in our tooling facility in Bolingbrook, IL by American Machinists on American made CNC machines. We machine this version in two pieces to add features and custom styling. Made in very limited quantities, we start with a 53.1 pound solid aluminum billet for the step, and a 5.98 pound solid aluminum billet for the post. Many hours are then spent sculpting the Billet BumpStep XL components in multiple CNC machines. Special cut-outs with collision webs are engineered into the bottom of the step to help us lighten it up. The two pieces are machined to a precision fit, assembled using exacting standards, and support USA made 304 stainless hardware. Custom fixtures had to be made, programs written and more specialized cutters purchased, all to make our newest, and worlds best bumper protector/step. The aluminum is hard-anodized for corrosion resistance and scratch protection. Super strong rattle free installation utilizing a 5/8” install stainless steel hardware with a theft deterrent Allen Key bolt to help prevent theft of your Billet BumpStep XL. 1/2" Allen Key is required to fasten.
Specifications: 24” wide and 3.5” tall, with an extra-deep 4 ¼” step depth.
