Replacement Step Pad for 3" Round Nerf Bar with 4-Hole Pattern
Updated 11/13/2025 | Published 10/15/2025
Question:
Are your nerf bar pads universal? Im not sure the brand of 3 round nerf bars that I have. I need 2 pads replacements. The pads are roughly 19.75 long. It has a 5 hole pattern. But it looks like the replacement pads on there before were a 4 hole pattern that worked. Spacing is roughly 1 in from end of pads to first hole. Spacing 5.65-6.5-5.65. Or a 5 hole would work 19.75 pad length. 5.65-3.25-3.25-5.65.

Hey Adam!
The step pads we have are universal-ish. They're made with specific bars in mind, but if the "pegs" match up their spacing with what you have, then you can still use ours even if it is a different brand.
The Replacement Step Pad for Aries 3" Wide Oval Nerf Bars # AA86FR looks like it will work, actually. I've had a previous customer ask about this as well and I made this diagram of where I've found those pegs to be. Check out the attached photo!
Does this look like it will match up well?
