Chrome Nerf Bars, Is One Kind Better Than Another?

[hoot29576]

So i have been debating this and I keep seeing very different prices. I know westin has a couple different brands and one boasts a lifetime warranty and the other only 3 years, Is there a difference between the two other than that? IS there anything wrong with the steps on ebay for under $200 shipped. I am looking for a 2007 NNbs crew cab.

Be careful because alot those cheap steps will rust and look like poo in a few months.

I prefer NASTA bars. They are come with stainless steel bolts and brackets also.

I was thinking about the GO RHINE Dominator II in the polished flavor. I love that look.

I just ordered a set of these today. I'll post a pic when I get them on.

what kind do you have?

It may depend on where you live, but I'd go for stainless bars either polished or plated. Plain cheap steel ones will rust pretty quickly.

A friend of mine had aluminum nerf bars and the corroded through right where they were connected to the frame. I took about 5 years though.

I have a crew and its mounted right in the same locations at the factory, 5 point per side

Thanks, I might have to look into them. I like how they are tight up to the body.

Aluminum that is bolted tightly to steel will corrode unless there is an insulator between them. We used to use undercoating to isolate aluminum and steel from each other. 304 stainless bolts should be used as well.

Here's another vote for Nasta. I had them on my 04 Crew. Very high quality product...still looked great when I traded the truck.

Westin Signature Series on my truck. Look great and easy to install.
