Recently visited four different truck, accessory stores here locally in my town, and you were the only one who explained it the way it should be explained about shopping for step bars. Great video very informational thank you so much. I wish you were local here in Tucson, Arizona or I would go to your store
I really love that you have these options in store for customers to see in person, touch and put against the vehicle to see if they like the look. I wish the stores out here in Tucson did that. Thank you for the video and suggestions in regards to having children and making the right decision with them in mind!
I'm 6 feet tall and don't need the running boards but the body seem looks bad 2016 gmc canyon cclb. Been trying to find tube style step that mounts to the frame for better protection. Thanks for the info, I'll keep looking around.
Thanks! I have a new 20 Tacoma & no small kids but 4 dogs! I’d never thought about the “ gap” you mention ! Maybe recommend for large gun dogs.( my Labrador is older I want an easy entry for him ) I wanted a amp research automatic step bc I’m alone 99% of the time driving I only need my driver side fitted for me & my dogs ( they are used To entering thru drivers side )
Your choice of Amp Research power steps is one of the best. It has a large step area and goes down far enough to make it a real step. I have them on personnel truck and I have been very happy. Plus the lights at night help too. If you plan on doing the install yourself make sure you get the plug and play model. Less time to install.
Hi Chris. Very helpful thought process! Thank you. 🙂 I am looking for a step for my truck. Can you tell me if any steps are actually installed on the frame of the truck anymore, or is it mostly rocker panel installs now, AND is that a sturdy option? I appreciate your help and easy to understand explanations. Respectfully, Nanette Taylor
I’m looking for a step that is closed on the bottom to prevent mud, snow and salt build up. Also I’m concerned about a step that sticks out from the bar. Will I be bumping into it? I’m buying a 2024 Colorado.
Hi, I just bought a 2013 Toyota 4Runner SR5 and it seems like every step or running board excludes the 2013 SR5. My wife is five foot nothing and has a hard time getting in. Can you recommend something that will fit my make and model or should I just get out the ol' welder and DIY?
Hi Chris, great video. Just purchased a ‘22 blacked out Sierra 1500 crew cab short bed & looking for a running board so that kids can get in/out easily. Deciding between the Rough Country BA2 or HD2. Have you any experience with Rough Country brand? What would you recommend if I walked into your store? TIA & Happy New Year!
Do you have an opinion of TrailFX boards? Similar to HDX. I bought a truck and paid for HDX to be installed and dealer is telling me HDX is on back order until July, so they are going with TrailFX
Alright what would you recommend for an 87 blazer. My wife is very short And she would like a step to get into the blazer. I would like something that would look Right on it. Also give it a little more protection on the sides.
Can you recommend a running board that is all black an mounts with no gap between rocker panel an running board please? A 2016 chevy silverado crew cab 1500. Thank you
What would you recommend for a 2022 gmc 3500 4x4 crew cab? I do have children and like a bigger step and something that hangs lower than the bottom of the rocker.
I need to check if the running boards I am purchasing will fit my truck. (Used) First time purchasing running boards. Where can I find a model or serial number on the board to check the year and what truck they fit?
What are your thoughts on the long term durability of the iron cross patriots black running boards? Was considering those for my new Serria double cab, but I live in harsh snow with salted roads during winter. Is the powder coating quality?
I have the 2005 Ford F 350 Super Duty Lariat Dually Crew Cab and the running boards that came with it is now short for my liking and I want to replace it with longer ones 110 inches. Just want to know if you have those available.
I am sorry to say you really can't, unless the manufacture makes a add on step. There is one company Go Rhino who make a add on step for thier running boards. It might work with some modifications.
Are the Tyger steps just as good in quality as the Go Rhino RB20 and in width will they protect from door dings? I'm trying to decide but the RB20's are more expensive than the Tyger but they both have the same warranty.
What do you recommend for a 2019 Nissan frontier desert runner crew cab two wheel drive,I have been looking at the brand from tiger with the stars on them.i really need something that looks very sharp as I am into making the truck look good more than comfort as I have no kids.thanks!!
If you live by the ocean , I wouldn't recommend Tiger step bars. They are prone to rust. For your truck a drop down step from N-Fab, Westin, or G-Rhino are good brands.
@@CHAutoAccessoriesMargate ok thanks for the fast reply,I don't live near the ocean but I have heard of the rust issue involving tiger so I will check the other brands out thanks again and God bless you.
What do you recommend for a 2020 Toyota Tacoma Off-Road Edition for a person who wants steps that also protect the sides of the doors from people who park next to you and open their doors too wide? my truck isnt lifted (apart from the way it comes from the factory).
Most of them offer protection along the side of the truck so thats good. I just ordered some Westin ProTraxx 4's for my 2012 Tacoma. Like the more clean look than the beefed up Mad Max style. Pretty inexpensive too
Good info. Ask the video guy to not move the camera all over the place but to zoom in or leave it out to get the full pick. Getting dizzy following the damn camera!
Hello my friend, my dad has a 2000 Ford windstar LX (original) in mint condition that he no longer is able to drive due to his age and illness but he wants a pair of running boards installed for easy access to either the inside or passenger front. I think that’s a great idea. Which brand/type OEM boards would you suggest that has mounting brackets. Should we do side steps or boards. Can you help us ? Board length is 86” wheel well to wheel well.
