Video Transcript for Carr Custom-Fit Side Step Spec Review

Hi everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a brief look at this Carr custom fit black powder coated aluminum super hoop step. Now this step has been specifically designed to fit your 1981 to 1996 Ford Bronco full size. And your 1981 to 1983 Ford F-100, 150, 250, and 350 crew cabs, regular cabs, and super cabs. Then your 1984 to 1991 Ford F-150, 250, 350 crew cabs, regular cabs, and super cabs. Then your 1995 to 1996 Ford F-150 regular cabs and super cabs.

And then finally you're 1992 to 1996 Ford F-250 and 350 crew cabs, regular cabs, and super cabs. So on custom fit parts such as this step, I do recommend taking advantage of our vehicle fit guide. Insert the year, make, and model of your vehicle and our fit guide will confirm if this will work for you or if we have something comparable that will work for you. Now this stylish step is going to help you get into and out of your forward with ease. The large flat step surface has non-slip, diamond tread, giving you excellent stability and this hoop style gives you a rugged off-road look.

Now lemme go ahead and retrieve my tape measure here just to try to give you some overall dimensions. So looking at the overall length, as you can see we're sitting pretty close to 20 inches here at the longest point. And then on that step platform, just measuring the actual area where you're gonna step, we're sitting right at 17 inches long. And then looking at the width of that platform, let's see if I can line that up for you so you can see. we are sitting right at five inches and this is going to give you a drop of about six inches.

And this step is made here in the USA of durable, rust-proof cast aluminum alloy construction. And that XP3 extreme black powder coat finish is gonna do a great job of resisting chipping, peeling, and fading. The lightly textured matte black appearance is gonna complement most applications. This does have a weight capacity of 500 pounds and the multi mount system is going to ensure a simple yet precise, stable fit on your Ford. And the mounting heads actually attached to your rocker panels and rotate for that perfect fit.

And they are constructed of zinc plated steel. You're gonna get all the hardware that you need to install this. And this does have a limited lifetime warranty from Carr and I think that's gonna wrap up our real quick look today. I do hope that our time together has been helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy, thank you for joining me.

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.

The ordering process was great. Product only took three days to arrive at my home. Installation was a breeze. Look better than I had hoped. Well made and a very solid when standing on them. ( I weight 190lbs )Great product!

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.

Solid product. Well designed for straight forward installation. I ordered two additional units for my Sprinter. Four total.

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.

Still very satisfied with product. Still using the prototype wooden treads. Havent bothered to make more permanent plastic ones. So far, I havent hit anything with these step hoops yet. I get lots of comments on how helpful they are, & how sturdy they feel in use. Thanks.

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.

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.

So far so good, finish is still like new even though we have had a tough winter. I still am a little timid to kick the icebergs in case the finish comes off.

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.
by:
Well made step. Great shipping. Easy install.
by:
Product is very nice, installation instructions could be more complete regarding underside vehicle equipment obstructing mounting points.
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.

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.

A year later and the steps are still holding up fantastic! No apparent issues with the aluminum rockers on the new fords. We are very pleased!

it is not black

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

No cursing, and no wrench throwing always means a good install in my house Carole! I am glad we had the right fit and your son was able to install without a potty mouth. Thanks for the smile =)

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.

Glad they are helping him get in and out of his truck! I almost took my steps off my Silverado as I'm 6'5" and don't really need them, but got the death glare from my mom when I mentioned it (she's 5'5", but also half Russian so she can stare down a bear). I decided it was safer for me to keep them on. : P What kind of truck did they get put on? I think these are a very underrated step and they tend to get overlooked a lot.

  • Recommended Carr Super Hoop Side Step for 2019 Toyota Tacoma
    The correct Carr Super Hoop Custom-Fit Side Step for your 2019 Toyota Tacoma is the part # CARR124501-1. For the pair you can use part # CARR124501. These are confirmed to fit your truck (I verified this with my contact at Carr) and all the needed hardware is included. The Carr Side Steps # CARR120251-1 that you referenced are actually designed for certain model years of the Ford F-Series trucks and will not fit your Tacoma.

  • Cab Step Options for a 1993 Ford Bronco
    The Bully Black Bull Adjustable Side Steps part # BBS-1101S-2 is a cab step and will not fit your 1993 Ford Bronco as you mentioned. We do have similar options which I have attached a list of for you. Out of these options I like the Carr Custom-Fit Side Step part # CARR120251-1. This step is a confirmed fit for your 1993 Ford Bronco and comes in a black finish just like the Bully step. The step is also larger at 5" wide compared to the above 3" wide step which will give a much larger usable...
