The Nerf bars look great! Great quality. I needed the step up! I have a ‘79 Bronco, so I knew they wouldn’t fit straight out of the box. I have a buddy that is a champion welder and we made them fast!

Excellent instructions, and really was a 30-40 minute install. I think they look like they came with the truck. Would recommend.

Those nerf bars look fantastic against your blue truck Josh! Great job on the install!

Do yourself a favor and buy something else. The finish was decent, but did not fit my truck without modification and was very flimsy. Buyer beware.

Order response was very good, as was shipping, but again, the product isn't worth the time or money.
by:
I have ordered a couple of items from etrailer. Shipping is fast and website is easy to navigate. On this order, even before it arrived, I noticed it cheaper on another site. Etrailer refunded 110% of the difference in the delivered price even before the product arrived. Excellent! Installation was very easy however I had to make a slight modification. Not all of the existing bolts on the truck were long enough to accept the flat washer and then the lock washer. There were no threads left for the nut. Easy fix. I wired brushed the bolts and cleaned the provided nuts to remove any oil. I then used automotive grade thread locker. The side bars are nice and solid and make getting into my Nissan Frontier much easier.

Very excited about my new Nerf bars. Shipping was great and installation was quite easy. Good instructions are included. It took us under one hour to install both. They look great and definitely help stepping in and out.

Très beau produit. Mais malheureusement, j’ai une petite bosse sur le marche pied gauche. La boîte est en très bonne état,et l’emballage à l’intérieur était correct aussi.Je vous envoie des photos. Pour le reste c’est parfait. Facile à installer. Voir la photo avec masking tape. Je ne sais pas si il y’a quelque chose à faire avec ça. Merci à l’avance.

[Very nice product. But unfortunately, I have a small bump on the left foot step. The box is in very good condition, and the packaging inside was okay too. I am sending you pictures. For the rest it's perfect. Easy to install. See the photo with masking tape. I don't know if there is something to do with it. Thanks in advance.]

Well that is not good! I have sent your information over to our customer service department for them to get this corrected.

When the box arrived it was in pretty bad shape and I thought this was going to be a mess. After opening I saw everything was packed really well and there was zero damage. I bought these so my wife would be able to get in the truck with minimal effort and they made it easy for her. They look good and it would have only taken me about 30 min for each side if I didn't have a diesel DEF tank to get in the way. It took some effort but the job got done and they really look good. They are well built and I would definitely recommend them to others. The only issue I have is that it would have looked much better if the bolts nuts and washers were black also.

Small dents in bottom of nerf bar. One area the paint came off I had to repaint to hopefully stop any rust. Didn’t want to hassle with a return. The dents are minor so I will keep them.

I really wanted to buy Westin 3" bars but could not get any definite answer to the question of whether they would fit a Tacoma with factory mud flaps. The Aries provided PDF instructions with picture, so I went with them. The Aries are of less quality than the Westins because the end caps are plastic and not welded. Also, the foot pads seem to be attached with tabs so have to assume there are holes in the flat spots for attaching pads. I will attempt to seal everything with silicone. The good news is that they are a breeze to install and fairly light. What I wanted most of all was side protection and the Aries should provide that well. On hindsight, I would order the Westins.

Etrailer was very helpful and great service and I have ordered several items from them and always been happy, with that said, These nerf bars worked and looked good at the start, but they started rusting out in about 6 months. I would not get these and go with ones that have a different finish on them. Here are current pictures after a couple years. I kept them clean and if we had snow in St Louis, I would always wash them after I drove in case salt got on them but look at the pictures, I have to order more now, Quality is not there on these

Today is the 1 year anniversary, of the purchase of my Aries nerf bars from etrailer, I have to say the installation was a breeze, and all the hardware was included. The bars still look as good as the day I installed them.

Couldn't agree more, Eileen! You'll be the talk of the town for sure.

by:
I absolutely love them!!! The basic installation was super easy. The additional support straps require a little creativity but don't be afraid to cut and bend them (support straps, not the tubes) to make a nice support! My bars are solid as a rock, not like most add on steps that wobble when you get in and out of your truck!!

Once my set of nerf bars arrived my nephew installed them .Installation was easy and simple in 30 minutes he had them installed.They make my truck look awesome.

The installation on the product was very easy, anyone with minor mechanical skills can easily install these bars themselves. I had several complements about how they look on my truck. There were a few minor problems with the shipping but the customer service took care of it promptly. I would highly recommend the company and product.
