Wheel to Wheel steps?

[ChadinTexas]

Does anyone have experience with a wheel to wheel sidestep or running boards? I have a 2021 Laramie, Crew Cab 5.7" bed.
Preferably non-drill mounting. Thanks!

I have these, they are pretty good, however they are a little spongee by the back tire, at least for 240#.

Very easy installation, used cordless drill for nut driver and was done in about 25 minutes.

White knuckle off road rock sliders mount to the frame and look freakin sweet. Not cheap though.

I have the factory wheel to wheel side steps and love them. Strong and at a perfect height for my truck.

I had N-Fab, and hated them .... Found a set of OEM new in the box on Ebay, and they are so much better

I have the Mopar OEM wheel-to-wheel steps on my 16 Crew Cab, and at a svelte 323lbs and 6'4" tall, they NEVER feel unstable under my feet at all!!

Well if that’s not a positive testimonial, I don’t know what is !!!!

I ordered a full length set of these for my PW.

Hope I like them...

I bought a set of the Laverne
Mega Steps for mine and I couldn’t be happier. They have brackets that bolt to the same place as the factory steps and even include a fourth set of brackets that go on the rear ends of the steps in front of the back tires for extra support that use factory holes on the lower front track bar attachments. They weren’t cheap at just under a grand but they’re really sturdy, well built steps.

I also have the OEM Wheel to Wheel . Love them and they are holding up in Maine winters . No drilling required mounting hole there from factory

I have the weston HDX steps on my truck and after two years are holding up great.

I went with the Mopar wheel to wheels. As someone mentioned earlier, a bit spongy near rear wheel. I'm 6x3" and about 205.

I’m just curious but since the painted to match boards that my truck came with brand new don’t actually go from
wheel to wheel like those chrome ones look like they do, there’s just only three brackets that bolt to the bottom of my cab and that pinch weld all the way down at the bottom; did Ram use any kind of a fourth bracket back there by the rear wheels or did they just rely on the same three brackets mine came with?

As I mentioned earlier, since my new Laverne steps go all the way from
wheel to wheel, they actually came with a two-piece fourth bracket that attaches to a factory hole the front suspension piece where the front of the lower front control arms connect to.

I think one of the reasons for the spongy feeling in the rear is that the Mopar w-t-w ones that I have only have two mounting places. If you blow up the picture you can see one under where the word RAM is on the front quarter panel and the other is below the rear end of the rear door.

That must be somethin’ new on the 5th gens then because the 4th gens use three mounting brackets per side.

Hi
I have a 2020 2500HD Crew Cab 4x4 Diesel Tradesman. I installed the Raptor Series cab length running boards. Totally satisfied with the brand, looks, and strength.

Mine are factory. I love them.

ill second that the white knuckle sliders are great, sit tight to the body but still useable even for my big clodhoppers in steeltoes, and frame mounted no drill install, plus if you ever offroad em they are a fantastic slider

 

[Fergusontd]

These are the ones I had installed when I bought it new! Works great so far!
