Abstract: A bed rail mount consisting of a curved tube. The tube is provided with a female end for receiving one end of a cylindrical bed rail and provided with an opposite end that secures to a mounting plate. The mounting plate has gouged openings and ears which allow the mounting plate to be welded to an inside wall of the tube by welding the ears to the inside wall through the gouged openings. A flange nut is secured on a top side of the mounting plate so that it surrounds a central opening provided in the mounting plate. One end of a bolt extends through the central opening and engages the flange nut while an opposite end extends through a center opening in a wear plate, through a hole drilled in the vehicle, through a washer and engages a nut that secures the mount to the vehicle. An upwardly extending perimeter lip provided on the wear plate conceals the mounting plate.

Abstract: A truck step securable to a vehicle via a mounting bracket an having a step arm capable of swiveling between a "storage" position underneath the vehicle and an "in use" position where the step arm extends outward from under the vehicle. A distal end of the step arm is provided with a step plate where a user's foot may be placed when stepping into the vehicle, and a proximal end of the step arm is provided with a lower swivel plate which swivels relative to an upper swivel plate provided on the mounting bracket. The lower and upper swivel plates have mating valleys and ridges to lock the step in one of several positions.
