Trim tub for easier in/out

[Pastrami]

Has anyone Roxor/jeep trimmed the lip by your feet flush to get in/out easier. I’m thinking of converting from a ranger but my only hold ups are the entry issues and the turning radius. Old mail delivery jeeps used to be flush by the feet and I feel like that would be pretty slick on a Roxor.

I myself am fine with stepping over, plus it helps to keep some unwanted water out.

I don’t disagree, depends on the usage. I run a lot of fence lines with cattle and open a lot of gates so just trying to get creative. Love everything else about the machine but in/out of the ranger sure is handy.. But $1 mile lifespan or more on the ranger sure does suck. Tradeoffs I suppose.

With the OEM Side Steps available from Diesel Freak, stepping over the lip is not a problem.
You can vastly improve the Turning Radius by adjusting the Wheel Stops. Mahindra must set the wheel stops way short to avoid roll overs. Adjust the wheel stops just short of the tires brushing the Springs. It will then turn just fine.

I would bet that the Lip is Structural Support for the body. The Mail Jeep might have some other structural stiffener that is not obvious. Also a Mail Jeep should not have a rough off road life requiring structural strength.
