Retractable Bed Step recommendations?

[Bagman51]

Has anyone found a bed step that mounts to either side of the rear bumper/frame that will provide better access to the bed?
Lots out there for the F150, Tacoma etc. but not the 24 Ranger!

Nobody found a step ?

I decided to add a retractable bed step using a modified Tacoma step, which was the cheapest ($117cdn)on Amazon. Made a bracket using 3”x5” x 1/4” x 6” long angle iron. Only drilled one hole in the hitch bracket frame. There is an oval through hole where a electrical connector clips in on the outer side of frame. Relocated it and the hole is available through to the inside face of the frame. Had to drill a 3/8” hole closest to the bumper on the outer side. Before all this metal work, I did cardboard and plywood mock-ups to test fit everything.

How did you cut the metal for the adapter you made?

Has anyone found a retractable T-step that works with the Ranger Raptor since it has different exhaust pipes than the standard Ranger? I can't find a step that works for my model.
