If you own a truck or SUV, a set of running boards will not only improve your vehicles styling but also make it even more functional. In this video Greg from CARiD.com is back in the shop to discuss everything and anything running boards. The goal: to provide YOU with detailed information about every single facet of aftermarket running boards so you can make an educated decision for the perfect set for your vehicle.
Needs First. When it comes to running boards, there are six main types that are available. And the type that you choose will be dependent on how you use your truck. Like to drive off the beaten path? A rock slider offers superior rocker protection when your off road. Or maybe your searching for a large wide stepping platform. If that’s the case, a traditional wide running board may fit your needs the best. Regardless of what your needs are Greg is here to help you narrow down your choices to find the right running board for you and your vehicle.
Finishes. If your searching for a running board to not only help you get in and out of your truck, but also to give you a boost in styling the right finish is key. Depending on what type of running board your searching for, you can select from finishes like chrome, polished stainless steel, brushed aluminum, and even full powder coated finishes.
Easy Installation. In this day and age running boards have really evolved. Most aftermarket manufactures offer easy to install bolt on applications. Rather than having to drill new holes into your vehicle’s rocker panels, most running boards are designed to simply bolt right on with new brackets and hardware. Making them easier than ever to install for the novice mechanic.

I've had 2 sets of the Steelcraft 5" oval tube bars. Each set lasted only 2 years because the internal nuts for the mounting brackets on the bottom of the bars, rusted out after only 2 years. Steelcraft replaced them once, but after the second set rusted out, they said "sorry but we can't help you". I had even purchased the optional stainless steel hardware & brackets. The nuts welded to the inside of the bars, for the mounting bolts, aren't stainless steel. I'll never buy a Steelcraft product again.

I'll never purchase from CarID again. Their customer service was horrible. My 6" steps came with cosmetic damage. I didn't notice until I had already mounted the brackets. I left the steps in their protective plastic and bubble wrap up til it was time to install on the brackets. I called customer service and ended up speaking with a manager. The manager stopped me while I was explaining my issue, as if she was having an "ah ha" moment , to inform me that I was out of warranty because I had already mounted the items. She said I was being recorded and that I was on tape admitting to my guilt. Who does that? I hadn't installed the steps. Where is customer service? Buyer beware

Seems like nerf bars could last way longer if there was a hole or two on the underside with plugs so you can release any water that might creep inside from the top or ends

I have a 2005 Ford F 350 Super Duty Lariat Crew Cab Dually and the running boards that came with it measures 85 by 6.5 inches but now I want something longer that measures up to 110 inches which will extend from the front to the rear beyond the rear doors to the edge of the rear tire fenders. Is this type available and what is the rough idea of the price quoting with one of the regular brands.
