Running boards ideas.

Just put a set on a couple weeks back. I like how close they sit to the body...almost like a slider. I hadn't seen anyone with them either so I gambled and bought a set and happy with them so far. PITA to mount by yourself kinda but nothing a jack and some patience didn't fix.

 

Thanks guys. I did see the RC running boards. They do look good on the black tundra.

 

They look good on a White Tundra also


I put these on my self, even with my fat old decrepit ass was able to install them.

 

That looks good!

 

They look good! I'm trying to decide between those and the Tyger star armor ones

 

I got 3” nerf bars and put them on I’m less than an hour. But now I want 5” ones as the 3”’s are to small.

 

Milk crates are free. Plus when not in use, you can store some gear in it. I like the no running boards look. Get you a milk crate brother.

 

NFab Podiums would look nice on there.

 

+1 for the GoRhino RB20 add the drop step if need be.

 

What steps are those?

 

Finally removed the hoop steps and installed the AMP Research powersteps. Loved the look of the Havoc HS2 steps, but really like the clean look of the hidden steps and the truck doesn't look so low to the ground. I think the hoop steps look good, but better on the lifted trucks.

Easy install, took me an hour on one side because I didn't know what I was doing. 30 on the other side and I was by myself.

 

Pics??????

 

Ionic Gladiator is pretty low key and affordable.

 

I,m also looking for running boards. took my toyota factory off and like the higher look. Looking for sleek boards. Found raptor running boards. posted a thread on them and no responce. here is what i found.

 

Looks awesome! What brand? Thanks

 

Any issue with road snow/slush buildup with these? My Westins are always CAKED with slush and it's extremely aggrivating to say the least. Might eventually go with AmpResarch but don't want to fork over the $1k price tag.

 

Theres some, it's not bad though. Nothing like my OEM bars. I was out all day in snow, mud and dirt. Again, not too bad.

 

N-fab

 

I have the OEM black cast aluminum boards on my 19' and really like them. Dealer split the cost in half with me as part of the negotiation.

 

I used raptor series running board, 7 inch wide stainless steel, not for off road but great to get in & out, even for my wife, best of all no powder coating had for 3 1/2 years no problems installed easy in less than 1 hr. sorry no pictures. (www.raptorseries.com ) crewmax model # 1304-0143

 

Thank you for the input.

 

the isue i have with these is that it has 3 mounting points where the oem have 4. so how can that work with the oem bolt on locations? it reads in the install instructons that these will fit the truck. more importantly only 3 mounting brackets?

 

Check out the Tyger steps. One model looks like sliders and the other are square tube. Both on affordable side.

 

thank you Trooper2 for the info. I will check those out. And i'm sory to read about your uncle.

 

Check out westin hdx stainless drop step i just ordered them they also have the nonstainless version that is cheaper but i live in the northeast with lots of salt this is not my truck but a good pick of them

The ones I want... bad ass, my wife is short.

 

those are bad ass. it seems that all our wives are short....... including mine

 

I'll be going with the AMP boards as well as soon as I get the lift installed. That will take a while since I keep spending money on work related items like ladder racks and Deck System. Towing mirrors are next.
