    Have the NFabs on Tundra and work truck. I love the way they look but vould not recommend for older folks. Have slipped on steps more than once when wet and good for getting in, maybe not so much gettng out for everyone.

    I find it easier to get my truck with out steps ! Guess Im odd. Big plus I like the look with out them and they defeat the purpose of the tundra ground clearance.

    Mine are sitting in my garage. Can you install with one person and how long did it take you?

    You can do it by yourself. Once the brackets are installed, you can lay the board onto the bracket. Start with the middle brackets and work your way to the front and rear. Make sure that the Go Rhino logo tag is at the rear, otherwise it looks funny. Good luck!

    You can install yourself. I did and it wasn’t hard. Mount the brackets on the truck first and then put the steps on after. Don’t tighten till you have it where you want it.

    New to the forum here. I was wondering if anybody has experience with these - Havoc Offroad HST Side Steps? The webpage says only 4.75" wide and they look like they tuck up pretty close to the truck.

    There is a picture on Amazon under the item, the picture shows them hanging low with the brackets showing. I wish there were more real images of Tundras.

    Personally I favor the Nfab style podiums, but with small kids and and a short wife and mom, full boards seemed like a safer bet. I went with the factory set and am quite happy with them.

    I am thinking of go rhino B20 with the bed liner finish. If anyone has them and/or pics I would greatly appreciate feedback before spending $600. I think for the Northeast winters they'd be great. thanks

    Toyota OEM Stealth running boards ( Iron Cross Patriot ). I hate running boards but with two kids, short wife and a disabled father it was a must. These are high and tight and no loss of ground clearance these are the best choice for me. The pads are 5 inches wide and plenty big enough for my Wolverine boots :thumbsup:

    ****HELP****
    Have a 2018 crew max...

    TORN between RB20s, or 6" Dominators D6 (Both from GoRhino)

    I like the wider step and want it to stick out a little farther than the door panel (to help against door dings from other car doors).

    NOT doing any serious off roading....daily driver and maybe some light trails/camping driving down the road...

    SELLING my factor running boards if anyone is interested make me an offer. (Pictured on Truck)
