That and the tilt wheel is a joke. Two worst features of the truck

What about getting the grab handle from a Right Hand Drive F150? If the driver is on the right, then the passenger (who gets the handle) would be on the left. Doesn't Ford make a right hand drive version for overseas markets?

Wondering if anyone has sucessfully install a grab handle yet?
I have a couple of paracord grab handles left over from my jeep. I may try to adapt it to work as it is just loops and velcro, like these ones:

Just wait a few weeks after the release of the 2015 F-150s (they will have a LH A-pillar grab handle) and parts are available for them.

Any luck on this? I dont think I have dove deep enough yet to find a UK parts website with the LH Pull handle. Going to say I despirately need this to make lifting myself into the truck a little easier than going through the passenger side lol.

Yeah I saw them too, how unfair is that?! I see where you can buy the handle by itself on ebay but no Pillar. Then I have seen some which both pillars have handles.

I just drove a 2015 F-150, my 2011 SCREW was in for A/C service and I got a rental from Enterprise, let me start by saying the cheaper version of the new cab configuration sucks, especially the new dashboard layout... If you don't get the upgraded models with the 2 big displays, your screwed... OK now it did have a GRAB HANDLE on the driver side A Pillar. So i think if you want to remove the driver side airbag from the A PILLAR, you could probably adapt a 2015, onto a 2011...

Default gDMJoe how did you do it?

Where did you get the parts?
What did you order?
Is it solid?
Can you actually put all your weight on it?
