Hey Tacoma4G members — TRUMGETA team here.
On a 4th-gen Tacoma, adding a step usually comes with a trade-off: easier cab access, but often with a full-length running board hanging below the rocker.
We designed the Auxchemic® Side Steps for owners who want a useful foothold without covering the entire side of the truck. Instead of one long board, the system uses compact, independent steel step modules positioned where your foot actually lands.
Here’s a quick look at the installed setup:
Key details
Why the compact layout?
A full-length running board makes sense for some owners, especially when passengers need a continuous stepping surface. These steps are aimed at owners who prefer a smaller footprint and want to preserve more open space beneath the cab.
One important distinction: these are vehicle-access steps. They are not frame-mounted rock sliders or vehicle jack points, and they should not be used to support the weight of the truck.
Full specifications, current pack options and pricing:

We’d genuinely like feedback from Tacoma owners: for a compact step like this, what matters most to you—ground clearance, wet/muddy boot grip, winter-salt durability, or step position?
If you have a fitment question, reply with your Tacoma’s year, trim and cab configuration, and we’ll check it.
