    Greetings!

    I'm looking at getting the 2nd gen running boards for my 2018 TRDORDC. I've searched the forum and Google and haven't been able to find any good pictures. For the people using these running boards can you post some pics so I can see how far they stick out? How close they are to the ground? Thanks for everyones time. Great forum!

    Perfect! Thanks for the pics!

    Are they functional? I like the sleek look but I want them to work as intended.

    I had those, loved the look. Ended up replacing it with steps as my 5'2 wife has a difficult time getting into my lifted truck

    DSCN1083.jpg I've had them on my 2006 and now on the 2016... Love 'em. They protect quite well from door dings.... A little high to be a real effective step for most men, but they do help the ladies....!!

    Highly recommend.... Being aluminum covered with plastic...they last forever... Oh, and the black plastic pattern matches the bed rails..:thumbsup::thumbsup:

    2nd Gen OEM running boards look great on 3rd Gen rigs, I haven't measured how far they stick out compared to the 3rd Gen but it appears they don't stick out as much and are a bit sleeker. My 3rd Gen OEM boards has a different texture and design but they both look great! I wonder if there are any 2nd Gen rigs with 3rd Gen OEM running boards? If so let's see it!

    I have them and like how they look. My only complaint is they hit the back of everyone’s legs when you get in and out if you don’t consciously avoid that happening. When they are muddy or dusty, that can be a problem.

    Did the pt212-35055 bolt right up? I had an idea passenger's legs would get hit.
