Specs:
Westin's HDX custom-fit, cab-length nerf bars help you enter and exit your vehicle with ease. The stainless steel steps drop down 2" from the bar, minimizing the stepping distance as you get into and out of your vehicle. The bars fit tightly to your vehicle's frame, and the straight style and angular design provide a rugged look.
The stainless steel step plates are rustproof, and they are removable for easy cleaning. The die-stamped step area offers maximum traction, giving you a safe, stable surface, even in wet and muddy conditions. The 15-1/2" long front and rear steps are extra wide, allowing you to get into and out of your vehicle with ease.
This solid, 1-piece construction offers long-term durability. The black powder coated stainless steel is corrosion resistant, ensuring that the bars stand up to the elements over the life of your vehicle.
Ratings & Reviews
They are holding up great and look as good as the day I installed them.
Great look. Right height. This is my second truck I have installed these on.
Bought these for my 2018 Tacoma - needed a little step up and help with protection of the rocker panel - as well as dealing with the frustration of mud & dust always coating inside door. These solved all 3 nicely. They are sturdy, well built, and very easy to install.
At least on my truck - only had to find pre-drilled holes and insert brackets. Found it easier to install bars attached to brackets then try to get bar on brackets after they were installed on truck.
Great price - cheaper than anywhere else - and free shipping!!
Nice product. Install took longer that necessary due to a misaligned screw hole that had to be filed . Excellent communication. Answered my emails almost as soon as I sent them. They look amazing.
So I just installed these last night on my truck and it was very easy just time and patience is all that is needed. looks like allot but easy in the end and I think they look great and is the look I was looking for on my truck. I don't see daylight between the truck and nerf bars so it looks like part of the truck more. Packaging and delivery were awesome, no complaints and no missing parts. So, again thank you etrailer.
Installed the steps today. So happy I got this step, ample room for your foot on a nonslip surface. Just the right amount of drop. They look great. Installed on 2021 Toyota Tundra Double Cab
I am glad I got the stainless steel steps, as the powder coat flaked in a couple places while installing bolts.
As others have said, the instructions are terrible. Attach the brackets to the step first, with the bolts just finger tight. Then hang the step on the truck with the bolts finger tight. Cycle through the bolts a few times tightening incrementally, then torque them.
Easy to install only needed help to I hold up one end to get a bolt started then I was on my own again.
We love them, they fit the vehicle perfectly. Ordering with etrailer was easy and they showed up with no issue ad ahead of schedule.
Very nice steps.
Great product!
I have a Jeep Wrangler and the Weston HEX step bar works great. I was hard for my wife to get in my old truck, but this step bar makes it easy for her in our new Jeep. It also has a non slip strip made out of steel not a glued on one, perfect!
Thanks
I'm 6'4" tall, but still could not easily get in or out of this stock Ram 2500. These solved the problem completely. I chose them for the different look, and the complete wheel to wheel protection. I also weigh 250 pounds, and these feel very sturdy.
I can think of very few cons, but one would be the decreased ability to hand wash/wax the bottom of your body panels after these are installed, and the other would be the obvious reduction of ground clearance.
Overall, I'm very satisfied.
Instructions aren't real great because they are for more than one vehicle but you can figure them out. They look great on my 2026 Ram 2500!
Product quality is excellent. Look great on the truck and the steps drop down low enough for easy access. The directions are horrible, and I had to call tech support. The markings stamped on the brackets may not be correct, (mine were not), resulting in installing and removing and installing again. The written instructions and pictures were poor at best even if marked parts were correct. Measuring running board bracket mounting spots and installing brackets to fit should result in correct installation. The stamped PC, PF, PR mean nothing and should be ignored.
As recommended in another review, the night I received the bars I opened the packages, matched up all the parts (brackets, bolts, washers, etc.) and made several piles for the mounting project. The Westin instructions are not easy to follow, referencing back and forth to various pictures and figures. Fortunately I watched an install video on their website for a similar set of bars on a similar vehicle to get a better idea of what the instructions were trying to say - like what is a rivcert and how does it work.
The actual mounting of the brackets went fairly smoothly until I went to hang the first bar and discovered I had swapped the rear bracket between driver and passenger side. The instructions showed a difference between the front, mid and rear brackets, but not that there was also a distinct left/right to the rear ones. Once that was solved, installing the second bar went quickly.
Overall the product looks great on my Ram 1500 and seems pretty sturdy. My wife and kids like the nice wide steps to get up and into the truck.
Ordered these in spring of 2021. By fall they were already starting to rust on the treads. By the next spring (1 year after install) there was significant rust on the treads, espousing the drivers as it got the most action. I’m now at a little over two years and all the treads are rusted as well as significant rusting on the corners and edges. These do not hold up well at all.
Many other reviewers mentioned this early rusting as well. One response from etrailer mentioned contacting customer service as these would be under warranty. I contacted customer service today and was told rust is not covered.
fast shipping
Excellent product , easy installation with instructions provided. Separate the left and right side parts , start with driver side which is shown in the instruction photos, then the passenger side will be easy. The product is sturdy when assembled and provides a good height to step into and out of the vehicle.
Bob and the team at e-trailer were 5 star. The ease of the transaction, shipping pricing to Hawaii and the Lightning fast delivery. Nerf bars are installed and look amazing.
Received within the projected delivery timeframe. Everything was packaged very well. Installation went extremely smooth with no problems. The steps look very nice on my truck! My only disappointment is that they were made in China, not the US.
The website all the way to placing the order is super user friendly. The product is second to none!! I love how the nurf bars are custom fit for my truck. The install was seamless and they look amazing!! etrailer has a new customer. They will be the very first place I check in the future.
These Westin HDX Nerf Bars with Drop Steps mounted perfectly on my 2026 Ram 3500 dually with the automatic air leveling system installed from the factory. No interference whatsoever with the air tank mounted underneath the truck on the passenger side and does not interfere with the Torklift Talon camper mounting brackets. They look great and feel very sturdy with plenty of foot room on the step.
Drop step nerf bars look great on the truck and make it easier for my girlfriend to get in the truck. Thanks
Best addition I’ve made to the big Bronco so far. Ease of install to ease of use and dependability all get fives stars!
