Video Transcript for Review of Carr Nerf Bars - Running Boards - Super Hoop Custom Fit Aluminum Side Step - CAR57GR

Hi, everybody. Andy here with etrailer. Let's take a quick look at this Carr Super Hoop custom-fit aluminum side step. Now, we offer this step as either a single step as you see here on my table, or as a pair. So whichever quantity is gonna work best for you, just take the appropriate part number that you see there on your screen, pop it in the search field over on our website, that will take you to the quantity that you're looking for and you can add if you order. Now, this is designed to fit the 2009 to current RAM trucks and also the 2009 Sterling Bullet.

And the RAM trucks that this is going to fit, it's a wide range, and so what you definitely wanna do is go through our vehicle fit guide here at etrailer, pop in the year, make, and model of your vehicle, and then our fit guide will confirm if this step will work for you or if we have something comparable that will work for you. Now, this is a stylish, heavy-duty step that's designed to make getting in and out of your truck a whole lot easier. This step has a wide flat platform with non-slip diamond tread, so you're gonna feel stable and secure even in wet or muddy conditions. And this uses a rugged hoop style design that's going to give you truck a tough off-road look, but it's also very practical. This does have the mount, the multi-mount system that's going to let these steps attach directly to the rocker panels, and the mounting heads can rotate so you can dial in the perfect fit for your specific vehicle.

And installation is going to be pretty straightforward. You're gonna get all the hardware that you need to get this installed on your truck, along with instructions to guide you through that installation process. As for durability, this step is built to last. It is built from rust rust-proof cast aluminum alloy, and this has an XK3 Khromezone finish, and that description kind of describes it, it's like a chrome-like finish. It's a double powder coat that's going to give a sleek high-end finish, but it also helps protect against wear and corrosion.

It's not a polished finish per se, like some of the previous steps from Carr have been. This is more of a muted finish, still has a shine to it. It's more of a dull finish rather than a polished. But I think it's gonna hold up really well. I think it looks great, and I think it's going to look very attractive no matter what color or style of truck that you have that this is going to fit on.

This is incredibly strong. It gives you up to 500 pounds of support. Going back overhead real quick. Line that up. Let me see if I can give you some measurements. The overall length, we're sitting pretty close to 20 inches, just end to end. The platform that you're actually going to step on is pretty close to 17 inches long, and the width right, about five inches. And then this is going to give you about a six inch drop. Now, if you happen to have any other questions about these steps or anything that we have here at etrailer, don't hesitate to reach out to us. We do wanna make sure that you're getting exactly what you need. One final note, if you want help with the installation, we've got you covered. On this product page, underneath the photo section, we have a link that will take you to our installer locator. Click that link, answer the questions that it has for you, and that locator will find an installer in your area that etrailer has partnered with to do the install for you. Well again, my name's Andy. Thank you for joining me.

Easy to order, shipped quickly.



by:

My 4x4 truck sits fairly high and these steps are just the ticket. Installation could not be easier. Drill four holes on the back of each rocker and bolt them on. The mounting brackets are plated and heavy guage. You will be supplied with more than enough hardware for installation. Included instructions are clear and concise, but really, this job doesn't require a degree in engineering!

We have ordered 3 items from ETrailer, a Spare tire carrier, a 60" ladder, and a set of running boards all for our camper. We were able to install all products, and very happy with them. Oh, by the way, I am legally blind and with a little help from my wife we were very proud each time we completed an installation. The customer service was excellent, and delivery was quick.
We Thank you very much,
Ralph F.

Classic, elegant, and high-quality product. etrailer's shipping and website top notch! I highly recommend it!



by:

Great company to deal with. Good price. Fast shipping. Well packaged. Great communication each step of the process. Carr steps are first quality. Already have my eye on a few more things w/ etrailer.



by:

I installed these on my full sized '90 Bronco. They are great. Very sturdy. Long enough for the person in the back to get in and out of



by:

I like them! My son installed on my 2002 Ranger extended cab (not XL) in about 3 hours. I didn't hear any cursing, so I think the install was straightforward. Thank you to pre-order customer service who helped confirm they would fit.



by:

Amazing to order from somewhere new that had what we needed ASAP
Thank you for speedy delivery
Unbelievable
I will update when we put our nerf steps on my 2000 Toyota Tacoma
Thank you again



by:

My husband had back and knee surgery so getting in and out of his truck was very challenging even with the running bars. Bought these to see if they would help and I can honestly say they have. And they look GREAT on his truck as well.



by:

Mounts to the rocker panels. Like the extra width to step in. Would have rated better if it was mounted to the frame.



by:

very good quality looks good on 1995 f350 will be ordering 2 more for sure



by:

Mine still look brand new after a year because they are still sitting in the box. Although the application included my vehicle, apparently you have to remove the body from the frame in order to drill the necessary holes in the narrow clearance areas. I might have liked the product if I could have installed it but that never happened.



by:

Very pleased with the quality and ease of install on these steps,
The crew really enjoys them and they appear to be holding up fine installed on the new ford's aluminum rockers.



by:

just right, not to large like full runners, and larger than usual steps, nice size good fit.



by:

The best price out of all other sites. I was so impatient for my product to arrive I even emailed etrailer asking about my order. They were kind enough to email me back with the information on the whereabouts of my super hoop steps. Following day it was here and I quickly went and installed them. Very easy and the i instructions were easy to follow. I love my super hoop steps and I got love for etrailer. I would totally recommend shopping with them or at least compare prices.



by:

Extremely well made with a great hardware kit and detailed instructions for installation. Installation was quick and easy.



by:

Awesome,and solid I used it on my 94 Toyota single cab truck



by:

Ordered these as a replacement for old ones.
One
broke and the other lost most of the coating. Since those came with the truck I could not warranty.
New ones fit like a glove since I had the old brackets, 8 bolts and nuts and we're good to go!
Hopefully these will last another 8 years, if not I see the manufacturer has a lifetime warranty on them anyways.



by:

Nice product, installation wasn’t too difficult. A parts list would have been nice. Took a fair amount of experience to put all the bolts into the right spaces. There were extra nuts and bolts to facilitate different truck set ups. Better to have a second pair of hands to hold the step in place while marking the holes to drill. Mine was mounted a little unsquare but it still went together. Shipper was a little rough on the package but little to no damage.



by:

Exceeded expectations! Easy install and solid mount. Looks great on my old truck. etrailer continues to lead in service, communication and product selection. There was a small shipping delay, but the staff at etrailer kept me in the loop, notified me of everything that was going on and delivered an awesome product at a competitive price. Thank you all.



by:

Product is very nice, installation instructions could be more complete regarding underside vehicle equipment obstructing mounting points.



by:

Well made step. Great shipping. Easy in stall.



by:

The online photos appeared to show the steps closer to the cab. I am not satisfied with the amount of drop of the steps. Attached, they hang lower than my current factory installed mud guards.

I wanted the Carr Super Hoops for my 2003 Chevy Express Van, but there was not a model listed for that application. I purchased the Model 124031 Carr Super Hoops since that model is the most versatile and includes the most varied hardware for the varied mounting applications.
Delivery was very timely as expected. Once received, the hardware seems of good quality and the black finish was just as I had hoped for.
I started by mounting 2 each 1” square tube spacers to the bottom of the existing Chevy foot well. The Chevy foot well turns out to be 2 thicknesses of body sheet metal with a stiffening ridge formed on the topside of the foot well (under the removable plastic foot well liner). I then thru bolted a 6”x24”x ¼” aluminum plate (6061,T6) thru those spacers to the bottom of the foot well with ¼” bolts. I was then able to mount each of the supplied Carr brackets to the bottom of the aluminum plate with 1, ¼” bolt and 1, #10-24 machine screw. The smaller (weaker) machine screws are expected to break if the hoop is hit from below by road debris or rocks.
Note that this installation leaves either the hoop frame to close to the ground, or the step surface angled significantly off of the desired horizontal. Therefore, I had to make some “treads” to mount on the step surface of the hoop frame. I chose to make these “treads” out of wood first to make sure I could make them work and look nice.
The new “treads” were successfully made on a table saw from a pine 2x6 and ended up being acceptably “level”. This installation left a shade over 10” of ground clearance below the bottom of the hoop frames (standard curbs seem to be between 8” and 9”). Now that I know how to make the “treads”, I plan to make a pair from some UV stabilized black plastic to replace the wooden prototypes.
If I were doing this over again, I could have just bought the cheapest model with the needed brackets. I was not able to use any of the extra hardware beyond the hoops and brackets themselves.
This installation makes entry and exit from the van much easier for my wife and I as well as our aging friends. I just didn’t care for the appearance of the full length running board systems.



by:

Jill is fantastic and knowledgeable.
Love
the first steps I installed on our 31 year old truck new reconditioned to a classic. Unfortunately that company changed to powered coated so I got polished chrome and powered painted like chrome steps making a huge difference on crew cab so noticeable totally not the look I wanted.
