    I don't know if I ever notice before, but since I installed these running boards I hear creeking noises. Never mind hearing every pebble that hits them.... I never noticed any of this with the OEM Toyota running boards, which were plastic and aluminum. Anyone?

    I've never noticed it on mine. Are the boards up against something so when the truck flexes it creaks?

    Make sure your bolts are tight. May want to check your skid plate if you have one, they can creak and squeak, pretty common as well.

    The only complaint I have with mine is that some of the powder coating is chipping away and allowing some surface rust to form. The price you pay for living in the rust belt. BTW, RB20's have gotten ridiculously expensive.

    Just installed mine. Came with a cracked seam. Getting that one side replaced. Haven't heard any noise from boards.
