The running boards are of good quality though nothing is assembled when received which means you have to decide where to put the treads and end caps as well as drill and rivet them in place (rivets included). There was some confusion because two sets of instructions were sent. Customer service took a long time to resolve this confusion. Otherwise good.

I bought these running boards for my 06 Dodge Ram Quad cab 4x4 and was pleased with their strength and good looks. They provided 4 support bars but I only used 3 per side and it was plenty of support for the quad cab. I would use all 4 if installed on the Mega-cab. I believe the quality and appearance is superior for the price paid. Although they say no drilling is necessary, the tools list required two drill sizes and and at least 6 holes per side were needed to be drilled. This installation is not for amatuers or someone who has limited experience with the right tools. It took me between 2 and 3 hours dinking with the drivers side but once I recognized the "best way" to get it right, the passenger side only took 1.5 hours. Printed directions are limited at best. Would I buy them again? Darn right and I could have them installed in 1/2 the time.

While the running boards are very nice looking, mounting them is a royal pain! Ended up having a local repair shop weld them to the body to get it done. If you have a lot of experience winging it and have a welder, then they are nice.

The Trail Runner Aluminium Running Boards came with no hardware,the aluminium grossor is thin and move when you step over also the adapters flex with pressure and not fit completely in the holes that came in the Truck chassis.

These are quality running boards that will sharpen the appearance of any truck, plus provide greater ease of entering and leaving your truck. The only flaw I found with them is the installation of the end caps and foot pads...they have to be pre-drilled and hammered in with the rivets provided. If the foot pads are not exactly drilled perfect, they will buckle in the middle. Other than that, this is a fine product that I would recommend for a classier look than most boards out there!!

When I installed the vinyl tread plates to the running boards, I was working in about 40 to 50 degree temps. After I got them riveted on, I parked the truck in the sun and soon noticed as the treads heated up they appeared to expand to the point that they lifted up noticably in the center. Would recommend that the treads be installed in 70 plus degree temps or else pre-hested with a heat gun so that it migh preclude this issue.

Very impressed with the appearance & quality. Previously purchased running boards by DeeZee and these are every bit as good. DeeZee did not make the boards for the truck I own, so I was a little apprehensive about a new brand, but I would definately purchase these again.

They look great on my 2008 black GMC Sierra P/U. Unfortunately, the installation got precarious due to the Lund EZ Brackets U-Nuts being square and my 2008 Sierra's 'factory' holes are round...ergo, the u-nut does'nt line-up perfectly with the factory bolt hole....see Lund EZ Bracket Instructions, Step 4....something or somebody needs some updating.....cost me more time/aggravation than was necessary.
