Anyone Tried "OEM Style" Running Boards?


Recommended Posts

I actually have the black versions.

 

I am happy with them in terms of function and fitment but I would say finish is about on par with what they cost in comparison to OEM. The metal they use is a pot metal so the surface isn't smooth and the brackets are fairly thin but I don't think I will ever put enough weight on them to push the claimed 600lb rating unless this COVID lasts for another 3 months and I balloon up from staying indoors lol. They don't flex at all with one person on at a time so although the brackets are thin visually, they are sturdy enough for me.

As long as they last a while and look good. I’ll never get to 600lbs either haha. 
 

If anyone has any better options for that price point, please share!

I also have the black version for my short bed RST. As I assessed some factory boards at the dealer I noted that my boards are lighter and hollowed out inside. But..for $165 free shipping on E@ay vs $800 at the dealer it was a no brainer for me. I like em. Sorry..wish I had closer pic on my truck.
