Raptor Series® - 5" OE Style Oval Curved Step Bars

I had troubles finding a body-mount bar for my truck, but once CARiD and the manufacturer helped me feel comfortable with these, I pulled the trigger. Customer service and shipping with CARiD were great, and I got an amazing price thanks to a flash sale. Once the bars arrived, I had so many troubles installing them. Total time was about 7-8 hours, but about 4 of that was due to issues with removing my original rocker panel mount bars. Total time once everything was off was about 3-4 hours. The instructions supplied by the manufacturer were intended to be universal, but ultimately ended up being confusing. For instance, it says to ONLY use the factory original mounting bolts, but once I install the rear spacer, that bolt is about 1.5" too short. Ironically, the manufacturer includes two longer bolts that fit, so I ended up using them (x2) on the rear bracket. Following the instructions exactly as indicated (as much as I could tell), the driver's side bar ended up being 1" out of level, sloping down from front to back. However, using the identical instructions (as indicated by the manufacturer), the passenger bar went on with NO issues, and ended up being only about 1/16" out of level - good enough for me! Seeing that this was possible, I again removed the Driver's one and and used the extra spacer washers to help shim it up close to level. It is now just slightly less level than the passenger's side one and looks pretty good. After all that work, the bars are very sturdy, look great, and sit higher than I originally expected. They run from the front wheel well to the cab/bed separation on the back and sit about 6" below where the doors meet the body. Because the bars are such good quality, I am happy with the purchase and would buy from Raptor again, assuming the manufacturer fixes the instructions/parts list.

Received my new boards in four days which is great considering they were shipped across boarder to Canada three weeks before Christmas. Installed them right away without any difficulty. They were packaged well and look amazing on my new truck. So happy I got these when I compare them to factory boards. Instructions were great but hardly needed. All holes were pre-drilled and threaded in the rocker. I highly recommend this company.

Best nerf bars out there for the look, quality, sturdiness, etc. Super easy to install. Took me 40 minutes total by myself on a Silverado 1500.

E-Z to put on, very strong, I weight 240 and can stand on them and nice looking.

Fit and form are very nice for the 2014 Ram 2500. The look of these steps really gave my truck some character. The truck is a Laramie so the extra Chrome really looked good along the side of the truck. So far the steps seem very sturdy, standing or stepping up on the truck at about 225lbs and it feels solid. The steps have been on the truck for less than a week. So I will give it a three star rating for now. They look good and whoever wrapped them did a heck of a job. At first I was a little disapointed in all the dang wrapping I had to remove but I was glad that the time was taken for a good wrap and protection during shipping.

Very nice appearance. I like the 5" wide steps. Chrome looks great. They look very sturdy. We're easy to install.

Fit great on my 2016 Tacoma. Easy to install, everything is labeled making it impossible to mess up. Would definitely recommend and buy again.

High-quality good price.

I received my first side steps and noticed scratches to the metal after being on the phone with customer service and put on hold several times and waiting several days for a reply via email as well as declining a thirty dollar partial rebate a new package of running boards arrived these were also damaged and scratched to the metal. If you are looking for a high quality running board that will hold up and not come damaged these are not it.

The product arrived sooner than expected and was in perfect condition. It was packaged extremely well and looked great once installed. This is a good looking set of steps and I couldn't be more satisfied with my purchase. Ordered on a Sunday and got them Thursday of the same week. Got the light kit too but not on the truck yet. Oh yes, put them on Thursday night too 1 1/2 hrs.
