Do you have a question about this Nerf Bars - Running Board?

Running Boards for 2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500
Thank you for coming back to us. I believe you have the 2500 Sprinter based off the wheel base you mentioned so please correct me if I am wrong Janice. There is one option for running boards for the 2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 and those are the Aries RidgeStep Running Boards part # AA86ZB. These running boards are a great option for the Sprinter but they do require some drilling into the vehicle's frame. We have had a few customers really love the Aries running boards though. Honestly...

Availability Of Full Length Running Boards For A 2012 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter
For your 2012 Mercedes Benz Sprinter I recommend the Aries RidgeStep Running Boards # AA86ZB. This comes with a full length 96" long 6-1/2" wide running board for the passenger side, and a 36" long board for the driver side. The steps themselves are a powder coated steel with punched holes and steel treads for traction. Custom install kit is included. This will be the only full length bar we offer for your vehicle. We do not have anything that would have full length on both sides.

Running Boards and Rear Hitch Step for 2015 Mercedes Sprinter
For your 2015 Mercedes Sprinter we have the Aries Running Boards part # AA86ZB as a confirmed fit that would work well. Then for a wider rear step that was designed to fit a hitch we have the Westin HDX Drop Hitch Step part # W98TD.

Wil The Aries RidgeStep Running Boards Interfere With Mud Flaps On A 2015 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter
Hey Christopher, The Aries RidgeStep Running Boards w/ Custom Installation Kit # AA86ZB doesn't list any fitment issues with mudflaps but it does look like you could potentially run into interference issues with the front mud flaps if they sit outside of the wheel well. Would you be able to email me a picture of your mud flaps so I can see how far back they sit?

What Aries Running Boards do You Recommend for My 2022 Mercedes Sprinter 3500?
For a great set of running boards, I recommend the Aries RidgeStep Running Boards # AA86ZB. The RidgeStep comes with a 6-1/2" footing surface area that provides you with considerably more surface area than normal round nerf bars. Also, you can't go wrong with the awesome design of the RidgeStep. The installation process involves all of the included hardware in the # AA86ZB.

2022 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 Entrance step Recommendation
The Carr LD Custom Fit Side Steps # CARR115771 are more or less a universal fit step so you should be able to mount it at the rear sliding door on your 2022 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 as long as the mounting brackets aren't in the same location as the sliding part of the door (see attached). Another option is to use the Aries RidgeStep Running Boards w/ Custom Installation Kit # AA86ZB which comes with one small step for your driver's door and then a long step for the front passenger...

What Side Cab Steps do You Recommend for My 2013 Mercedes Sprinter Cab/Chassis?
Thanks so much for all of the information! As far as running boards for your 2013 Mercedes Sprinter 3500 cab/chassis, the only ones we carry are designed to fit models that have sliding doors. This is the Aries RidgeStep Running Boards # AA86ZB. With this set, you will not have the same length of boards on both sides of the cab because the passenger's side is shorter than the driver's side. Also, we cannot confirm whether this set fits on a cab/chassis model. For a great alternative that...

2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 Running Board Recommendation
The only running board kit that has been custom-made for your 2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 is the Aries RidgeStep Running Boards w/ Custom Installation Kit # AA86ZB. This doesn't have the fancy electric extend/retract feature but it gives you the step system you're looking for to help your wife out. I like the multiple holes in the boards that help provide extra grip. You might be able to get the Actiontrac steps to fit but that would be a complete modification and you would want a...
