I'm working on a idea to put a step on the side of my car.
I've looked at other treads and googled for some ideas on what to use as a pad. I think I'm good there.
I was trying to figer out a way to hide the step or make it not as noticeable. But then figured why.
If it's a usable and necessary item of the car might as well make it look good and functional.
Maybe people wouldn't try and use the exhaust then. (hopefully)
What I need to know is. What steel should I get to put my pad on to support a person?
My body is channeled over the frame. This will have to come off the bottem of the frame.
I figued I could make a U shape out of some square tube or flat bar. Gauge/thickness is where I get lost.
Going to use this pad I think.
