Hey Derek. We have two options to replace the step pads on your Aries Round Nerf Bars item # AA204051-2. Which ones you need are going to be determined by how many pins are holding your current pads onto the nerf bars.

The Replacement Step Pad for Aries 3" Wide Oval Nerf Bars item # AA86FR has four pins that measures 6.496” apart center-to-center for the inner pins, and the two outer pins measuring 17.795” apart center-to-center. The overall length of the pad is 19.736".

The Replacement Step Pad for Aries 3" Wide Oval Nerf Bars item # AA2090139 has five pins that measure 3-3/4" between the first two pins and the last two pins. The center pins are spaced 5-1/2" and 6-5/16" apart. The overall length of the pad is 21-1/4".

I've attached a couple of diagrams below so you can see these dimensions.

What happened to your step pad?

Hey Derek, did you get a chance to check how many pins are on your current step pads for the Aries nerf bars? Once you confirmed that, were you able to find the right replacement pad? Your update could make it easier for others replacing their pads too.
