Video Transcript for Breaking Down the Carr Custom-Fit Side Step

Hi there, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a quick look at this car hoop to custom fit sidestep. This is a stylish and sturdy cast aluminum alloy step that's going to provide a five-inch drop to help you to more easily get into and out of your vehicle. Now this is designed specifically for many of the 2015 and newer Chevrolet and GMC vehicles, including the Colorado, the Silverado, 1500, 2500 and 3500 as well as the GMC Canyon and Sierra 1500, 2500 and 3500. We do have a vehicle fit guide here at etrailer.com, that I would encourage you to use, to make sure that it's going to work for your year of vehicle and your package. So once you get that year, make and model typed into the fit guide, we'll let you know all their products that are guaranteed to work for your vehicle.

So you can rest assured that when you get this, it's gonna install very easily, it's gonna fit the way it should. So this does fit really nice. It's a precision precise fit for your vehicle. These head, mounting heads attached to your rocker panels. They are constructed of a zinc plated steel.

So they are gonna give you a nice firm connection. All the hardware that you're gonna need is included as well as instructions on how to get this installed properly. So they're easy to get this all installed. And then once it's installed, you'll have this nice large seven inch long by 3 1/2 inch wide platform to step up on and to make it easier to get in and out of your truck. This does have a non slip diamond tread to give you a little bit more traction and stability.

And even though this is an aluminum construction, it is still gonna be very strong and durable. So, it has a weight capacity of 500 pounds. So it is going to hold up really well for you. You can see this hoop style does give it a nice rugged off-road, sort of look. Our overall length is gonna be 10 inches, but because it does have that aluminum construction, of course it is going to be rust-proof, so we're not kind of to worry about that.

It does also have this XP3 Xtreme Black Powder Coat finish to it on top of that aluminum construction. And that powder coat finish is gonna resist chipping, peeling and fading, and it does give it a nice lightly textured matte black appearance. So it is going to look really nice on just about any application in the paint job, that sort of thing it's going to blend in and look really good having that on your vehicle. This is made here in the USA. So you can trust it's made to the high quality standards that we've come to know and trust for products that are made here in the US and it also comes with a limited lifetime warranty. So if you we're to have any problems with it, you're more than welcome to reach out to us here at etrailer.com. We're always happy to work with our customers to make sure they're getting good quality products and having a good experience. So, if you are looking to add a step onto your vehicle, you're wanting to make it a little bit easier to step up into some of those higher sitting vehicles, this is gonna be a great option for you. Again, make sure you use that vehicle fit guide to make sure you're getting the one that's gonna work for you. That's gonna complete our look for today. Again I'm Michael with etrailer.com, thanks for watching..

It fit well and does what it is intended to do. Was easy to install...after the holes were drilled. If you would like more adjustability to where the step can be located, I'd recommend a longer step. On a 2024 2500HD Sierra crew cab, the frame cross member allows for only one attachment point (+/- maybe 1/2") for the front step. It would have been nice if solid carbide drill bits were included instead of twice as much hardware as I needed (each step came with enough nuts/bolts for 2 steps). Cobalt and Titanium bits worked, but took a while and I could only get about 2 holes drilled before bit was shot. Overall I'm happy with the purchase.

Used on our regular cab company plow truck. They work slick!!

Sturdy hoops. Very easy to install and holding up well a year later.

Fits good and looks good

Excellent quality. Super fast shipping. Outstanding customer service. Drilling holes in my truck was difficult, be sure to use some sort of cutting oil.

I bought these Carr steps to dress up my 2019 Ram 2500. I’m going for the ‘utilitarian minimalist chic’ look and these nailed it far better than the factory running boards.

What I liked -

- Heavy duty- steps and hardware feel substantial
- Mounting kit made specifically for my truck
- Straightforward instructions
- Super solid and stable
- Look far better than nerf bar steps
- Brackets came slightly expanded which made fitment easier. They bent in to a tight fit once the bolts were torqued down


What I have mixed opinions on -
- I had a tough time getting just the right fit, as the lip on the truck isn’t that big, perhaps 3/4”. Some holes I drilled using the “hold up the bracket and mark with a sharpie” method were too low, leaving not quite enough material beneath the hole. Other holes that were a little on the high side made for a tough fit of the bracket. So be patient, measure twice, drill once
- There was a whole bunch of extra hardware! Sort it all out on the counter beforehand to see which jives with the instructions and set the others aside
- Had some bad washers in the hardware kit



by:

I purchased "Carr" steps for our "new" 1989 Ford F150. The hardware supplied with the steps was excellent compared to some imported products. There were good instructions and everything fit. This will help by spouse get in and out safely and with a bit more dignity.



by:

Originally ordered these as a replacement for the front. Did not check size before ordering.
Decided to put them under the rear doors instead.
Since I already had them on the front and was able to see how they were mounted, it made the install was a piece of cake.
The instructions were clearly understood for my Silverado and only took me about 15 minutes per side to install.
I have since ordered the larger pair for the front and will use the same brackets to replace.
Only gripe is the finish on the ones that were originally on the truck (8 years old) has chipped off due to mag chloride on the road and frozen ice being knocked off.
Since I was not the original purchaser, I cannot claim warranty issues as they are guaranteed for life.
Hopefully with the new ones Carr perfected their coating, we will find out in another 8 years!



by:

These were a perfect choice for our 2016 Winnebago Travato 59G. Not a lots of skill required and they look great. Very nice product. Thank you for the fast service.



by:

My order arrived in less than a week and it took about a hour or so to install. Instructions were clear and easy for most any fitment. For my Chevy it could not have been any easier. This truck is for my daughter who has spina bifada so it enables her to climb in easier. The steps look great and I'd highly recommend them and etrailer. I've used etrailer a few times now and will continue as they have quality parts at some of the best prices!



by:

Great product but I couldn’t use your directions because I mounted it on my Ford 8n tractor. In fact I only used the four bolts that connect mounting brackets to step. I cut two pieces of flat stock welded it on frame and drilled 2 1/4” holes 2 on each mount and viola the job is finished and now my wife can get one and off tractor with ease. Great product and it was the only one I found that fitted my needs for mounting flat on top of stock and stair is adjustable. I recommend this product to anyone looking for a quality piece at a great price. Thank you etrailer for creating this outstanding step.



by:

Awesome customer service. Answered all of my questions to help me get an account setup and to get the correct part.



by:

it went together easy have an issue with 2 of the bolts will not tighten up like it ran out of threads just spins went to parts house and replaced but that is the only negative



by:

It helps me to climb into my truck,with adding an extra step. Very happy with it.



by:

Still very happy with the steps. Instructions were useful and the product has held up well. It doesn't have a lift kit or muddier tires, but my old F250 is still pretty tall. The steps make entry and exit much easier for and old guy and his short wife.



by:

Simple ordering precise & quick. Nice Email response from etrailer. Easy instructions right out of the box & on to the truck. Easy in & easy out of the vehicle, nice & sturdy you cannot go wrong with a reputable name to back it up. I am a satisfied consumer.



by:

The step has worked perfectly. However, I installed it myself, I was enable to
drill one of the attachment, even with a 90 degree drill and the proper bit and oil in my 2023 Sierra.



by:

Needed to drill custom holes on my Promaster for install but that’s an issue with the van rather than these. They’ve held up fine for over a year of use no prob.



by:

Sturdy product, works well on our Promaster 3500



by:

Steps look great. Easy installation. Shipped fast.



by:

Love this step!It is a replacement for one we lost in an accident. Glad they sell just one!
