Video Transcript for Review of Carr Nerf Bars - Running Boards - Rear Mount Hide Away Step Ford Van Galvanized - CAR63XR

Hi, everybody. Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a look at this car, rear mounted hideaway step for Ford vans. Now, if your van sits high, or if you're constantly loading and unloading gear, tools, or equipment, this step is gonna make getting in and out of your van very easy and even safer. So this is gonna be perfect for contractors, delivery drivers, van lifers, and even DIYers with a tall Ford van. And since this is rear mounted, this is gonna be perfect for loading zones or job sites where you're accessing the van from the back all day long.

So taking a closer look here, this is going to feature for you hands-free deployment. Obviously the idea is you use your foot to push the, push in and push out. I can't do that because it's on my table, but you'll just use your foot to push it in, and that will extend the step out there for you. So it's going to be that simple. And this is a strong step.

It supports up to 500 pounds, so it is strong enough for heavy duty use, whether you're hauling big tools, job site gear, or just multiple trips in and out. This is a 36 inch wide platform, so this is going to give you more room and stability underfoot than smaller steps. And you can see that traction there or those teeth, it's gonna give you superior traction in all weather conditions. We actually had one of our neighbors give a review on a step very similar to this, and they specifically mentioned the grip that this is going to give you. And he said, even in slippery weather conditions, he had a firm step on this.

So this is really going to give you quite a bit of traction, a sure footing, if you will, when you're using this step. Now I said that this platform was 36 inches wide. It is about seven inches deep, and it's galvanized steel, so it's gonna be corrosion resistant for long lasting durability. So as you can see, it retracts in and locks into place and then comes right back out when you push in. So very easy to use.

It's gonna be very easy to extend and retract to get this out of your way. And when it is put away, you're really not gonna know that you have a step there at the back of your van. It's gonna keep that clean look. It's gonna protect the step. It's not gonna be like an aftermarket step that's sticking out all the time. Now, I do have the brackets set to the side here. They're not installed, so you'll just, it does include the brackets to install this tier van, but the overall length of this is gonna be about 42 and a quarter inches wide, or long, I think I said length. But whether it's length or width, this direction, it's gonna be right at 42 and a quarter inches. And then the depth overall is gonna be 18 and a half inches. And then the height is gonna be seven inches. Hardware is also included for you to get this mounted into place with the brackets. We do have a version of this that it's not a galvanized step, but it's a steel step that's painted in yellow for more of a visibility issue, a safety issue. So if you're looking something along those lines, again, everything's gonna be exactly the same except the step will not be galvanized. It'll be a steel yellow step. So you can find that here at etrailer.com. So if you're looking for a rugged, practical, safety focused upgrade that's gonna make rear van access easier and safer for you, more efficient, this is gonna be perfect for anyone who uses their Ford van as a serious workhorse needing that extra step to get up into their tall Ford van. If you do decide that this is gonna be the one that's gonna work best for you, we'd love to hear back from you regarding your experience getting this installed and using it. And you can share your experience with us by dropping a comment or leaving a review on this product page. We'd love to hear back from you. Well, that's gonna wrap up our look today.
