    im pretty damn sure that stepsides are lighter...when i replaced one side of my bed you could literally pick it up with 2 fingers no problem. it looks better too only drawback might be traction. i lost alot by just losing the rear bumper.

    old mod list: H/C/I/N/E/G 408
    new mod list: 5.3, gears/posi, mufler and tune : (
