APS Wheel to Wheel Running Boards 5in Compatible with Ram 1500 2009-2018 Crew Cab 6.5ft Bed & Ram 2500 3500 2010-2024 304 Stainless Steel (Nerf Bars Side Steps Side Bars)

Initially purchased these boards and because of an error on my part they did not fit my truck. The company went out of their way to help me and got me back on track! They were a breeze to install and seem pretty durable! Can’t speak much to the product yet but super pleased with the company’s customer service!

Best value for the money, Oem cost 3 X the money and didn't hold up. These are stainless steel and should hold up in all weather. They came when promised and arrived as described. Instructions included and easy to follow. Sturdy and look great, like the fact rubber runs the length so no matter where you step, it is safe. We would recommend this product.

Looks good. Sturdy, ALL hardware was supplied. Detailed easy to understand instructions. All parts clearly marked.

Had worried a little when ordered and didn’t notice the part that these would not fit my model of RAM. Tried and successfully installed them with no issues in 30min. Nice quality.

I really like the finished product but getting there has been a road I prefer not to travel very often.First step I recommend for the installation, throw the instructions in the trash! They look like they were written for a 10 year old and are about useless at best. The mounts are not marked correctly, whoever set the instructions up for printing should try again, and I have no idea where the metal came from the the hardware but I am sure Reynolds Wrap wants their foil back!On the good side, everything comes very well wrapped & packaged which still makes me wonder why I have what looks like drill marks on the side of one of my boards. I put that on the inside so nobody but I will ever know it is there! I have the "Wheel to Wheel" boards and they are perfect for getting into the front of my truck bed! The weight is limited to 130 KG/286.6 pounds so I hope I don't need to worry about that any time soon!Now to break down the bad stuff! Like I said, the hardware is junk! I had to replace several of the small bolts because they kept stripping. I have wrenched on aircraft for a little over 20 years so I do understand how to treat hardware and not to try tightening a 3/8 bold like a 5/8 sized bolt! The smallest bolts, 10mm bolt head are used to mount the boards to the mounts and on brackets that attach to the welded seam on the bottom of the cab. The bolts that go in the board are cap bolts that slide in a track, a square head goes in the track and stops the bolt from spinning. I had 3 of these heads mess up and are holding the board. They just won't be getting removed or tightened any further, they spin in the track because the heads are too thin to hold a reasonable torque. The same goes for the quality of the nuts that are on the seams, they start getting tight they spin inside the socket! I am thinking for the price they could have purchased decent hardware for the mounting of the product that will forever have their name on it!

Pretty good steps, very little flex at 180 pounds, fit the body lines pretty well. I knocked it a star only because of an issue that required me to fix the bracket. They could not be installed otherwise, do not let this stop you from considering.I went with the 4 inch model to keep them withing the tire lines. Im not a fan of the wings that end up hanging past the tire, these fill in perfect. They do have some adjustability if you wanted but not much. They went on rather straight forward, but I have installed a few sets that use that wild bracket they came with <--- which is the reason for 4 stars. The directions are a bit on the useless side. I you stare at it long enough you will figure it out.The install took me about 30-45 minutes total. I used a small 18v impact to drive most of the bolts so that saved me tons of time alone. Once you figure out the crazy bracket setup its goes quick. I installed with the longer part forward so it matches the cab nicely.The bracket that goes into the body to support the main bracket for the boards is a fight. You really need 30 fingers to do it easy. My best advice for the 5 that you have help, if not install the bracket in the body as indicated with the clear washer to hold it still. Install the large nut and not the lock washer just to hand tighted to hold in place while you install the bolt through the bracket, use a pen <--- yes a pen to line up the nut thats in the body to get the bolt started with its required washers, then remove the giant nut and install the lock washer. It looks like the front driver bracket has been updated since the review of it not fitting certain trucks. This one has a few more steps but nothing too hard.I started by laying everything out in piles and where it goes under the truck. From there I started the battle, the main problem was the brackets you hide in the body have nuts welded on. 2 out of the 6 of these brackets the nut was welded just a tad to far off the predrilled hole, This caused an issue that required a grinder. There was no other way to make it work, I had to grind out the bracket to access the nut from the main bracket side. I came up with 6 extra bolts and washers, these looked as if they were used on the trucks with nuts already in the body, they say this is for the 2015.5 and up?I would recommend them for the price and they do exactly what I need them to do, help my wife in and out of the truck. Me I dont like steps, but shes tiny so some things have to happen.Ive added photos of what the look like on the truck and how they fit the body lines. Hope this helps.

Pretty good instructions and floor boards themselves are really nice but the brackets are kinda flimsy. They should charge a little more and make the brackets solid. Also from the pics I thought the groves were rubber but it’s just all aluminum (scared of the black wearing off and seeing aluminum) time will tell. Pretty cheap price.

Product is great for what you pay. Yes they are lighter than stock or much higher priced boards but bang for your buck there're awesome. Note there is bounce when getting in and out but so far so good. I'm 170 lbs

Going on 3 years with them doing 100,000km in the Ontario winter. The black paint is starting to come off. I’m happy with them.

These are light weight with very good quality and easy to install and also looks very good on my truck.

I install these by myself no problem. And because they look great they are lightweight and they were easy to install. I would have given them a five star review but they’ve only been on my truck for one year and the brackets are peeling and rusting like crazy. Considering they bounce a little when you step on them I don’t think it’s gonna take much more for the rust to eat through & make them snap. So I’m not too impressed with that. Also, this is not a work truck nor does it get used for heavy work and I don’t wear work boots or work anywhere like a construction site, I wear soft rubber runners most of the time and on the driver side the paint is chipping off on the surface as seen in one of the photos, which looks like a little stone chips. Stone chips don’t happen on an item facing the sky generally and there’s none on the other side. So I’m confident that it’s chipping off from very gentle use by stepping on it, which is what they’re for. So overall, I thought they were great at first but now I’m not too happy. Those brackets need to be made of some thing a little more rust resistant. Because I can’t see them lasting another five years for sure maybe one or two.given they are about a year old I think it would be fair for the company to send me a free set of brackets for when these ones inevitably break which in my opinion is way too soon after purchase.I know you get what you pay for, but these shouldn’t be that flimsy.

I installed these on my 2014 Ram to replace my factory step bars, one of which got creamed by a boulder (do’t ask!). They have a nice brushed aluminum finish, with a slimmer profile than the factory ones, so they don’t sit quite as close to the ground. Also made it easier to lift the truck on a post hoist without using 8”” of truck adapters at each lift point to clear the bottom of the step bars. They were wheel to wheel units which are not that easy to find, and were priced much better than the Mopar ones. When installed, they were very solid. My only beefs are the poor instructions, and that they don’t come with plastic covers to hide and protect the mounting brackets. The photos in the instructions were terrible, and it took a while to figure out which bolts went where, as the instructions would only specify the bolt diameter (6, 8 or 10 m), not the length. In the end, I threw the instructions away and just used common sense to figure it out.
