Let's see those running boards/side steps

Boards came in today, and I managed to talk the wife into helping put them on. That being said, I really didn't need help..ha.

40 minutes from the time I walked outside to the time everything was cleaned up and I was back in the house. Theyre pretty solid, I may go back and adjust placement (in vs out, front vs rear) but well worth it, especially at the price

Looks great!

This may be a dumb question but did you have to jack it up to get enough clearance for installation?

Nope, and I was glad too because I'm not the smallest person..ha.

Even with the boards on and doing the final tightening, I was able to reach what I needed. I just needed to think about where the brackets were so I didn't pop myself in the face with one.

Thanks. I ordered mine last night. ETA is not for 1-2 weeks but hopefully they show up sooner. My little dudes have to make quite the climb into (and leap out of) the truck.

Mine showed up in about a week or so, it'll come with 2 boxes...that threw off my wife because she's like "what else did you order?!" Haha

Currently have the Nfab podium steps, they are less 2 months old and while I do love them, I am probably going to take them off and sell them. Hit me up if your interested, $300 cash pick up or $350 shipped. They are in mint condition and can and will provide detailed photos of them if anyone is interested.

Why don’t you like them?

Those look great, how sturdy are the mounting brackets? I always try to take that into account along with the boards themselves

There are three brackets, seem to be pretty solid. I'm about 200lbs and can jump on them with no flex that I can feel.

I'll grab some more later today. These are the one i had on my phone. They sit fairly flush with my tires from head on view. About 4ish inches of footspace. Wife approved as well!

Terrible lighting in this picture, but these are the 5" Ionic straight bars. Install was easy and they're rock solid. I'm happy with them.

They look nice, I am debating this vs the westin outlaws, I had a set of dominators, different model of steps on a previous ram and sadly they rusted quite fast, which makes me hesitant to go that route again

Dont tell me that! I was worried about rust as well. They do have a 5yr (i believe) warranty. I may even go as far as rhino lining the whole setup in the near future. I actually ordered the Outlaws first, but they were backordered. So I canceled and got these. I actually like these better since it sits up higher without the "rock slider-like" bar below. Keeps a bit of ground clearance.

Installed some Tyger Blades and took some pictures when leaving work today.

oem steps is what I ended up with, thanks for the tip on cleaning off the threads due to paint over spray..

Love seeing all these running boards. My Westin Outlaws arrived damaged, after waiting 3+ weeks for them. Now I'm told they are another month behind for my replacements. Looking through here to find other options if I decide to cancel the order and pick something else. Thank everyone for posting.

Agreed. We need better fitting boards

I just bought my new 2020 Big Horn Quad Cab and I am having the same trouble. I do not want the gap where I can see the brackets. I want tough steps, but they are all cheap looking.

The ones i posted have the gap but they are very sturdy i also enjoy the step by the bulk head of the bed. Thinking i sould have gone all black tho

I have finally found them folks! Aries RidgeStep Running Boards. I have a 2020 Ram1500, quad cab, 6 lug. Simple and easy to install. I ordered them Tuesday night and they arrived Friday even though they said 7-14 day shipping. Little to no gap! They have a lip on the backside to fill the gap. I’m so happy with these. I’m 215 lbs and my son is 256lbs. They are very sturdy and have no budge. I sincerely recommend.

Nice truck. What wheels are those? Are they 18's? I like the chrome/polish look over the black wheels out there.
