2022 Running Boards Recommendations

Hi All,

I just purchased a 2022 Tacoma Access cab and I'm looking to get some running boards to deter car door dents. I don't off road just want to stop the senior citizen from hitting it. I see 5" and 6" boards out there. I think the 6 may stick out too much I'm just looking for a clean look. Below are some that I like. The Raptor style at 5" I like but will they stick out enough. I also want aluminum for the rust factor.

What are your thoughts

 

WTF is this ?...
Dude, delete and fix those links - ain't gonna sign up or pay to look at some running boards -

 

No need for the language. In my post I said I'm new to this so all you had to do was explain what I need to do.

But I apricate the warm welcome to the site. Thanks

 

Welcome to TacomaWorld! There are a ton of options online for runningboards. If you want to go the OEM route I recommend these runningboards (

Genuine 2005 - 2013 Toyota Tacoma Running Boards, Extra Cab

Link - PT212-35053), they fit 2nd and 3rd gen tacomas. I personally recommend a rockslider style runningboard (Relations Race Wheels Bolt-On DOM Rock Sliders will fit access cabs) that bolts to the frame because you'll get extra protection off-road or in side-impact crashes.

 

Welcome!

If you aren't concerned about ground clearance, look for the OEM Toyota Predator style steps.

They are aluminum and won't rust, and are easy to find used. Should be $200-300 on Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, TW Marketplace, etc. Just make sure you get ones for an access cab.
