Hello everybody. This is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a look at this CARR custom fit Hoop II black aluminum side step for a quantity of one. Now, this is a custom fit part. It is designed to fit the 2007 to 2009 Dodge Sprinter, the 2007 and newer Freightliner Sprinter, Sprinter 2500, and Sprinter 3500, the 2010 and newer Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, Sprinter 2500, and Sprinter 3500, and also, the 2014 and newer Ram ProMaster 1500, 2500, and 3500. And on a custom fit part like this, I do like to recommend for you to go to our website, use the fit guide, put in your year and model vehicle.
It'll show you if this will work for your application. Now, this is a nice, stylish step that'll let you get into and out of your vehicle with ease. It's a very large, flat step right here. Has a nice flat surface that has a non-slip diamond tread on it for excellent stability. Overall length on this step from this side to this side, you can see is gonna be right at about 10 inches.
The step dimension, in other words, the inner portion that you actually step on, that's gonna have a width of seven inches, or seven inches long. And it's gonna have a width of about 3 1/2 inches that way. Total drop when this is installed is gonna get you about five inch drop. Now, you can see this as a nice hoop style. Gives a nice, rugged, off-road look.
It is a multi-mount system. Provides a nice, simple and precise fit for your vehicle. You can see I've attached these mounting heads to it. These mounting heads will attach to your rocker panels. And you can see, depending on where you put the bolt, you could actually rotate them for a perfect fit on your vehicle.
They are constructed of a zinc plated steel. You can see all the hardware's included to install them. It is, they are a durable, rustproof, cast aluminum alloy construction. And you can see this step has a nice XP3 Xtreme black powder coat finish to resist chipping, peeling and fading. It is lightly textured, matte black appearance will compliment most applications. Now, this part is made in the USA. Now, this is for just one step. We do also sell this available as a set of two steps. It's listed on this product page as a related product, and it's part number CARR105771. Weight capacity on this step is gonna be 500 pounds. And this is for quantity of one step. But that should do it for the review on the CARR custom fit Hoop II black aluminum side step for a quantity of one..

Ratings & Reviews
Good quality. Made some adjustments to fit my side rails. Painted brackets and bolts. Drilled holes to fit 3/16" self tapping screws. Bent rear tab flat. Works great so far.
Had to remove the rock slide to install which was no big deal, other then that installation was easy. Steps look great quality is great I really like that they don't stick out to far so I'm not hitting my shins. Will be adding some for rear doors soon.
The steps themselves are solid, and make getting in and out of our truck easier, esp. for older folks. I have a minor issue with the installation instructions, however. In the instructions, they state:
" 8. *REFER TO DIAGRAM “A” WIRE HARNESS. Remove the plastic cover that is holding the carpet down and move the wire harness out of the way before drilling out the hole for the next step as shown on the diagram. Do
this procedure for both sides of your vehicle, because the wire harness may be on either side."
There's insufficient space to move the wiring out of the way as the hole for the sheet metal screw ends up dead in the center of the channel , so I used a piece of angle iron slipped under the wiring to protect the harness while drilling the hole. Once I installed the screw, I realized that the sharp point of the screw would be rubbing against the harness, and would eventually cause a short. To prevent this, I slipped the extra 1/4" Nyloc nuts provided in the kit over the sharp end of the sheet metal screw as shown in the photo.
I realize that there's not much room to use another type of fastener and working around the harness is awkward, but I think the sheet metal screw should really be replaced with another fastener that doesn't present a hazard to the harness. A 1/4" Torx button head bolt inserted from the top would definitely be an improvement, for example.
Matte black finish and heavy duty construction. Easy install on a 2024 2 door Rubicon and a 2024 Mojave. I would recommend laying out all the parts and organizing them. The shorter bolts are for the rear of the bracket while the longer are for the front toward the step. I would also recommend drilling the pinch weld area, attaching the bracket to the pinch weld area, and then drilling the hole for the sheet metal screw. This is perfect if you need a step but don't want to lose your rock sliders. They can be easily removed by taking off two bolts and two sheet metal screws for each side if you are wheeling. I wouldn't order from anyone other than etrailer. They are the only site with a review and install video. They offer great customer service if you run into a problem and fast shipping. I am very happy with etailer and Carr.
This worked excellent to put on an existing running board to create a half step for my wife to get into my 2012 Avalanche much easier. I had to alter it slightly to mount it but am very happy with the result.
Have one on, works great

The truck looks amazing, Judy! I love seeing the group pic with the truck too. How often do you take the truck out for a drive?

Did quite work well for promaster. Product was good quality, just bad angle when mocked up.

Thanks for sharing that, I appreciate the honest feedback. Glad to hear the build quality was solid, but I can see how the angle not lining up right on the Promaster would be frustrating. If you’re up for it, a quick photo of how it was sitting on your van would help us take a closer look and see if there might be a better option or placement that works more naturally for your setup.
Do you have a question about this Nerf Bars - Running Board?
