Video Transcript for Carr Custom-Fit Side Steps Feature Review

Hi everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a look together at these car custom fit black powder coated aluminum super hoop steps. Now, these steps have been designed to fit your 1981 to 1996 Ford Bronco Full Size, then your 1981 to 1983 Ford F-100, 150, 250, and 350 crew cabs, regular cabs, and SuperCabs. Then your 1984 to 1991 Ford F-150, 250, and 350 crew cabs, regular cabs, and SuperCabs. Then your 1995 to 1996 Ford F-150 regular cab and SuperCab. And then finally your 1992 to 1996 Ford F-250 and 350 crew cabs, regular cabs, and SuperCabs.

Now, on custom fit parts such as the steps, I do recommend taking advantage of our vehicle fit guide. Simply input the year, make and model of your vehicle and our fit guide will confirm if these will work for you or if we have something comparable that will work for you. Now, these stylish steps are gonna help you to get in and out of your Ford with ease. The large flat step surface has a non-slip diamond tread for excellent stability, and this hoop style is going to give you a rugged off-road look. Let me retrieve my tape measure here and just give you some overall measurements so you have a good idea of the size.

So measuring here at the longest point, as you can see, we're sitting right at 20 inches long. And then measuring just the area where you're gonna step on, the platform there, we're sitting right at 17 inches long. Let me retrieve my ruler here and give you the width here of that step area. So as you can see there, we're sitting right at five inches wide. And these steps are gonna give you a drop of about six inches.

And they are made here in the USA of a durable rust proof cast aluminum alloy construction with this XP3 extreme black powder coat finish. That's gonna do a great job of resisting chipping, peeling, and fading. The lightly textured matte black appearance is gonna compliment most of your applications. The weight capacity on these steps is 5,00 pounds. And then the multi-mount installation system is going to ensure a simple yet precise stable fit for your vehicle.

These mounting heads are going to attach to your rocker panels and then rotate for a perfect fit. They are constructed of zinc-plated steel, so they're gonna hold up to the elements quite well. Mounting hardware is included to help you with the installation. You'll have everything you need here for an install. And these do have a limited lifetime warranty from Carr. Well, that's gonna wrap up our look today. I do hope that our time together was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.

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:

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:

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:

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:

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:

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:

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



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 in stall.

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.

Everything fit. Easy to install and looks great!

These are sturdy and look great. My only complaint is I have to tighten them up every few months because they loosen. If it weren't for this, they'd get 5 stars.

Still look and function great. I do have to tighten them every once in a while. Id be concerned if the vehicle was a daily driver, but they work well on my garage queen Bronco.



by:

I love my truck, but because of 20 year chronic back problems, getting in and out of my truck was becoming painful to the point I often would not drive my classic 1995 f150. BUT....these steps have completely changed that for me, I love the steps! The width and length let me step in and out of my truck with confidence. They are very sturdy, which lets me step with comfort and trust in the product.



by:

Very well made and easy to install I used 1/4 self drilling screws instead of the ones provided. I just held the step up and ran those screws in and had everything held in place to drill the holes for the bolts. Made in the U.S.A. !!!



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:

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

  • Side Step Recommendation for 1994 Ford F-350 With Lift
    You have come to the right place to find side steps for your 1994 Ford F-350 with a 6" lift and I highly recommend the Carr Custom-Fit Side Steps because they offer you the best footing with their tread pattern and have a significant drop to accommodate the amount of lift you have on your F-350. The only thing you really need to decide on with these steps is the color you want and if you want the 3-1/2" width or the 5" width. The larger width is what I recommend because you can't go wrong...
