The APEX Drop-Down Side Steps are a lightweight combination of side steps and rocker panel protection designed for 170" Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vans. The 9" lower step height improves entry and exit, while the short driver-side configuration provides clearance for existing components. Lightweight aluminum construction helps minimize added vehicle weight without sacrificing durability for daily driving, lifted vans, and overland builds.
