Seriously considering the Go Rhino RB10 for my 2018 Sierra. The nerf bars that came on it are just too darn low. Anyone try the newer RB10 slim lines? Or are they too new? Curious how the 4” Slim Line compares to the 6” of the regular RB10’s. Other than the obvious difference of 2”. 😉

 I put Westin Pro Traxx 6" oval nerf bars on my 22 LTZ. They are pretty beefy.

Yeah I considering these for my 2021 RST but being from a Midwest state.  I was wondering if they would be slippery with snow & Ice. The ones on my work truck you got a pay attention or you will bust your a**

You can get the Go Rhino's RB20's with a box liner finish. They're super grippy. Would be a good choice for the snowy areas.

Mine have the liner finish, and the grip is great.

The bedliner finish has excellent grip.

Looking for something that will help the gf get into the truck, not hit me in the back of the legs as I jump out, AND serve as somewhat of an emergency rock slider. I'm clearly not heavily offroading my standard bed crew cab, but occasionally take it places it probably shouldn't go. Do any of you have these below, and would they offer any body protection in an oh ****** moment? 

1. Go Rhino Dominator D1,D6,DSS (Is the DSS too narrow? Are shoes constantly hitting the body paint a problem?)

2. Westin Outlaw Nerf Bar Step

3. Tyger Auto

4. Rough Country HD2 (Probably the least of a slider on the list)

None of those will protect your door sills.  If you want a rock slider look at something similar to what GM offers for the new ZR2.  I went with the GM high clearance off-road step on my AT4.  They don't provide any protection, but they're high and tight and won't get in the way or snag on things as much as some of the other options.

Curious if anyone has pics of installed black widow running boards? A guy local is selling them and wondering how they effect clearance compare to the ones I have now.

As far as potential vehicle upgrades go, Running Boards – and their close cousins Nerf Bars – are kind of special. They are part of a relatively small group of upgrade products that can bring both high-level aesthetic appeal and also real practical use to your car.

I have listed some of the top rated running board for your consideration. Hope you will find it useful.

1. Tyger Auto TG-AM2D20078 Star Armor Kit for 2009-2018 Ram 1500 Crew Cab; 2010-2021 2500/3500

2. MaxMate Compatible with 2009-2018 Ram 1500 Crew Cab (Including 2019-2020 Classic) - Nerf Bars

3. Tyger Auto TG-RS2D40078 RISER For 2009-2018 Dodge Ram 1500 (Including 2019-2020 Classic) Nerf Bars Running Boards

4. APS iBoard Running Boards 5 inches Compatible with Ram (Nerf Bars Side Steps Side Bars)

5. 6" Chrome Polished Side Step Nerf Bar Running Board Replacement for Silverado Sierra

I think this will help you to find your targeted running boards. I have fount useful review and informative about running boards. You can read and analyze before making the final buying decission.

    • Google converting 98 4.3 spider injection to carburetor if all else fails. 
    • That computer lies!
    • My centre console USB ports haven’t been working and the one in the glovebox is starting to act up. When I plug my phone into the cord the radio will go black and stop playing, and the CarPlay is inconsistent.   I checked the fuses and they were fine. I changed the USB port out and still nothing. Hoping for some advice on what I should be looking at.  
    • The truck is a 1995 Chevrolet S10 Blazer, 4.3 VIN "W" engine. :cracks knuckles:   On a whim - because I needed a headache - this truck was for sale so I stopped to take a look. Doesn't run. Well, it does, but barely. Long crank, choppy idle, bad misfire(s), it REEKS of fuel. I can DO this..I'm thinking. Diamond in the rough. One owner until last year. A young guy is selling it, he bought it 6 months ago. It stranded him more than once, he's got a newborn. It was in the shop 10 days ago and he "thinks" they said it needs a new fuel injection system. He can't put any more money into it, needs it gone. I was thinking of upgrading my Macbook, which is a total want, not a need. For less than the price of a new laptop I can have fun for months tinkering on this truck and enjoying it. I'm taking this truck home. The guy was beyond thrilled, his wife was there, she thanked me profusely, I could tell they were hurting. They seemed like good people in a bind.   Some parts, a wash, maybe a set of tires, and I can have a few months of fun and then turn it for beer money (or the next project).   Sure enough, there's a work order from a shop last week in the INCHES of paperwork on this truck dating back to when the first owner bought it. They put a new distributor in it, fuel injection work describes basically opening the plenum and putting it back together. He said he couldn't afford any more work so he had them button it up and that's when he put it up for sale.   I'm not well versed in 4.3. I did discover 1995 uses the 1992-1995 SCPI "Spider" injector which is riddled with issues from splitting lines, clogged or cracked poppet valves and plastic spider legs that crumble over time. Cool. I'll just order me a ne---. Oh, the auto parts store doesn't have it? Rock Auto doesn't have it. eBay? $$$$$$ for used. These are UNAVAILABLE period end of story unless you know "a guy" who's still got one in a box somewhere.   Can't upgrade to the '96-'04 injector, it's a different plenum, wiring/pinout and sensor config.   There are a few kinda "know a guy" -guy rebuild services for these injectors out there for about $350. Okay, Okay... I'd like to know if anyone has used them? Anyone got a lead on these crappy 92-95 spiders?   I also don't want to send MY spider to Narnia and back without knowing if that's truly the problem. I guess I'll need to pull apart the plenum and do some digging.   I was also thrown for a loop. This 1995 model year truck has an OBD-II connector. The interface is decidedly not OBD-II. I can read and reset trouble codes and view live data, but there's not a lot of data. Like misfire count and on what cylinder, that's not there. It's OBD-1.5.   Nothing is ever easy. Now it makes sense why this guy wanted to disappear this thing for cheap. I'm guessing the shop told him the injector is toast, the part is unobtainable and they're not going to sort sending the thing to a rando offering rebuild service on craigslist, and the kid likely can't be without a working car for 3 weeks even if they'd facilitate that.   Experience with these early SCPI's? Stories? Things to check? Sympathy? (..Nah...)   This can sit until I sort it. But I haven't had a problem with a vehicle I couldn't easily solve in a long time.
