      For a single cab, you only get one step. So the pic is not accurate. But it was easy to install and looks great!! My '94 Ford F250 may not be a show truck, but these definitely dress it up. I do wish they dropped another inch or two lower. They hang just below the cab. It's enough that my wife has an easier time getting in and out of the truck, but if the bars hung lower, they would be better for the F250. My assumption is that these are ideal for a F150.

      Received package in less than 24 hours from order. Super quick! The nerf bars were excellently packed with no damage, just had some minor factory scratches on one bar. Polished out easily. Installation a snap, took me longer to find my anti seize than to install. Since others had trouble with bolts and/or nuts stripping out, I used lock tight and didn't torque them as high as recommended. First side took me about 35 minutes and second side about 20 minutes to complete. Main problem was discomfort of laying on the ground under the truck. As others commented my bars came miss marked as to which side to install on. Easily noticed as they will only fit one way. Sure improves entry and exit and keeps one from breaking down the seat bun on the door side. Good looking bars!

      My wife and I bought a 2005 Isuzu Ascender new several years ago. Almost since the day we bought she has been asking for some sort of step, weather it be running boards or "nerf" bars. One of the issues we came across was finding aftermarket parts for an Isuzu. Luckily the Ascender is the same platform as the Trailblazer and GMC Envoy. Most of the aftermarket parts in have ordered for it have been for a Trailblazer and they fit just fine. Like most other products I found these on another website at a reasonable price but out of curiosity I checked AutoPartsWAY and they had them at not only the lowest price but at half the lowest price I had found to date.Installation was pretty easy. Weston provided step by step instructions that I was able to follow but I do believe they could have been better. I had to kind of follow the instructions but at the same time line the pieces up to the vehicle to make sure I understood the instructions. Once I had a clear understanding I was...

      I just finished installing this side steps on my Ridgeline 2013 and fitted perfectly. Easy to install, about 1 hs by myself. All parts needed for both sidesteps except tools. You will need a wrench and Allen keys to tighten these bolts.

      Ordered these to replace a set of factory bars that came on a 2006 Toyota Tundra Double Cab XSP. My original bars were rusted through after road salt from living in Germany and sea salt from living in Hawaii (I am military) got to them. These bars fit perfectly up to the original installed factory brackets, so the installation was a breeze for me. They look great and definitely renewed the look of my truck. I am extremely pleased with them and no one can argue with free AutoPartsWAY Prime shipping, especially when you live in Hawaii.

      These step bars are a nice alternative to the overpriced oem bars. they went on very easy , but the instructions had them swapped sides,If I had a complaint at all was that one of the steps seemed a little wavy , but for the price I can live with it ,Overall they are functional , easy to install and look good on the truck

      Bars were very sturdy, and are even sharper than expected when installed. Installation instructions aren't the best, but they are enough to get the job done. The pictures are very helpful. Took about 2 hours to get everything installed by myself. An hour and 40 minutes for the first one and sorting bolts, and 20 minutes for the second one when I knew where everything had to go. Packing/shipping seemed very sturdy as well, with each bar individually wrapped inside the box.Only negative I have was that there was a small dent in the face of one of the bars I received. Wasn't a terrible one, but still enough for me to notice and be annoyed by. Unfortunately, trying to deal with shipping such a large item back and forth with AutoPartsWAY and eating costs tends to be a losing battle, so I just stuck with it. Other than that though, have been very happy with the rails going on 4 or 5 months now.

      These step rails are a quality product. The packaging was excellent, all parts were secured in the boxes and instructions were easy to follow. I was able to install them by myself with no issues. They have a very good chrome finish and actually look better than the factory installed ones.Word of caution - be sure you have 1/2 inch drive sockets or you will have issues removing the factory frame bolts.

      This is the third set of Westin's I have owned; this time with the third step for the bed and I really love the feature. Westin is always a great product with expected quality as well as fit and durability. The AutoPartsWAY supplier had a great price and delivery was very quick.

      Pros, Stainless Steel, easy to install, cost is half the cost of factory bars.Cons, very cheap hardware. Had to contact Westin to get a replacement bolt and felt like the rest would strip out when they were installed.I wish they would have used quality hardware made in the USA.

      The AutoPartsWAY website told me that these would fit my 2005 Ram 2500 Quad Cab. When they arrived, it was immediately obvious that they were for a standard cab. I consulted the Westin site and determined that the part I needed was 25-2315.All that said, these are a great product. I have been very happy with the quad cab version and these looked great when I unboxed them. If you have a regular cab, you won't be disappointed.

      I purchased these for my 2012 Colorado LT Crew Cab. The installation was pretty straightforward with the only caveat being that the rear mounts for the driver and passenger sides had to be swapped (I read on another post where they were labeled incorrectly and that proved to be the case for my installation as well). Once I figured out that I had to swap the rear mounts, the passenger side rail went on without a hitch -- no rattles, squeaks, etc.However, the same cannot be said for the driver's side rail. It seems that the middle mounting bracket butts right up against a piece of the frame, and I have been battling a squeak/rattle for about two weeks post-installation. That is the only reason that I gave it four stars instead of five -- I'm not 100% sure that the design allows for enough clearance for this middle mount, although the instructions state that the front and middle mounts are interchangeable.Would I buy these again? Absolutely. For the price...

      Very good step bars, especially for the price. These bars mount to the frame of your truck, not the rocker panels, which is a big reason I like these bars so much. Half the price of getting factory bars, most of which are mounted to the rocker panels, and made out of 304 stainless. 304 is important, because it will not rust. Watch out for the cheap 400 series stainless that some brands use. They will rust.Very easy to install with basic hand tools, even easier and faster with air tools. I through some card board on the ground to lay on and was finished with the installation and alignment in 30 minutes.Awesome to have the wheel to wheel option. Love being able to step on the bar to reach into the back of the truck box to grab stuff.Looks great on my truck! Wish I could upload a pic so show you how great they look.Thanks!

      My husband picked these out for his recent purchase of a used F-150. They look great and are perfect for the kids getting up and into the vehicle. He installed them himself and was very pleased with the instructions and time it took to install. He's kind of a car/truck guy (changes our oil, does minor repairs) so to him this was a great Saturday project that really dressed up his truck. Very happy with this purchase.

      Easy setup and great product! If you are worried that this will not be sturdy it definitely is and i am not a skinny guy...however the original westins I have on my truck had extra support for it making my original much stronger however when it came to taking the old off....not much fun there over an hour with an angle grinder but once the old was off new went on with a breeze.

      These are very nice quality and very easy to install. These mount directly on the frame so no drilling is required. If you are looking at other generic brands you need to look at the installation documents. These things are solid and beautiful. They have a wide place for your foot. You will need a torque wrench to put the body bolts back on at appropiate tension. If you don't have one, visit your local auto shop to get a free loaner tool.

      actually, thanks to previous reviews I spend a little time comparing the pictures before I got in the garage. great look, great addition, and yes instruction could have been better, took me 30 minutes for first side. 15 minutes for second side. otherwise great all around

      I was told that Westin products were the best in the industry. I was told correctly.My wife's 1998 Pathfinder had the original, stock, faded, rusty step bars on her truck.The package was delivered undamaged, well packed, good instructions, all the parts. I removed 6 bolts from each of the old step bars, installed the new step bars. Her truck looks great again.These are beefy, well built, heavy duty nerf bars. Bigger diameter than the stock Nissan parts. We got 14 years out the old ones, I assume these Westin step bars will outlast the rest of the truck.

      Great quality and no rusting after 4 years of use, I bought these to replace the set I have due to an "incident" but I just bought the same ones I had before because I was so impressed with how they lasted and the easy install on my 2007 Tundra

      Excellent product and made solidly with stainless steel. Directions sheet could add a few more details but product was not hard to install, took about 1-1.5 hours. Plastic step pads seem good quality also but look like they should be a couple inches or so farther back for getting into and out of the front seat my 2014 Silverado crew cab.

      I've had Westin nerf bars on four or five trucks now, and have had their brush guards on two of those trucks. They make excellent products! This fit just right on my 2012 Ram crew cab. I ordered some ICI brand, and they were horrible. They stuck out AND hung down WAYYY too far. And they didn't sit level, they slanted away from the cab because the support brackets were too long.First, the packaging of these was great. If I had to repack these, I would be able to use the same box and packaging with no problem. Of course I won't be repacking them for any reason. Second, AutoPartsWAY delivered them quickly. Thirdly, install wasn't too bad at all. Took about 1.5 hours, and that was dealing with laying on a gravel drive, on a windy day with dust blowing in my eyes. Fourth, they fit just right; they fit snug to the body, sticking out just far enough to be useful, and they don't hang down far at all. Recommend these to all my friends! Only wish they offered this bar in a...

      Finally, it took a lot of searching but found these nerf bars which fit my 2007 Ford Expedition EL on AutoPartsWAY. All others were too short for my extended Expedition. Received them and installed them within 1 hour. They look great and are functional. Now my kids can get in without jumping in. Only gave them four stars because I do not know how long they are going to last, only time will tell.

      Love the look and sturdiest of the oval step bars but I am disappointed in the actual black step pads, Would have give a five star rating if the pads where made of rubber but they are made of plastic. My last truck I spent only S99.00 on a set of round bars and they had rubber step pads. Other then the step pads these look great and fit perfect and so easy to install.

      They look great and are very sturdy. The directions they give you are vague, but once you figure it out its a breeze. Took me an hour to find out how to mount the brackets and an hour to install. The rear bracket was confusing for me. It just mounts in a different place on the rocker panel then you expect. Overall I'm very happy with this purchase, great product at a great price. I'm also including a link that helped me see how to mount the rear bracket.[...]

      Very nice bars fit great on my '05 Jeep TJ. Took about a half hout to install. one backing mount bar needed to be grinded as it was too long due to a chassis weld that interferred with seating it, other than that this was a straight forward easy bolt-on mod (12 bolts). Bars appear very sturdy and note these are frame mount as compared to some others that will mount differently giving you less than a solid mount. Look good, sturdy, well packaged, easy install. Very satisfied wih this purchase.

      I bought these for my truck because my short wife was tired of pulling her self up into my 95 F150 4 x 4 that sits up high. Well these look great - my truck has a factory chrome package, so these steps complement the trucks looks. They fit great , they are well made and of heavy gauge metals. The brackets have slots, to allow adjustment of the steps position when hung off the factory mounting points. The stepping pad is wide, giving plenty of foot room when getting in & out. Great purchase, I'm glad that i put them on my truck & made my wife happy !

      The directions took a little time to decipher, but the step bar is relatively easy to install once you figure out what goes where. The front of the bar is bolted through the end of the bar and I have some big kids so we'll see if it lasts. It does come with a three year warranty, so that is a plus. The extra step makes it a lot easier to get stuff out of the bed without scraping it on the top of the bed.

      The price ($180) was great and they look great on the truck. Even the odd friend who hates step bars admit they look good and are solidly attached.The instructions could have been a bit better. Installation would have taken about 2 hours if I knew what I was doing.Tip for non-mechanics: Even though the instructions don't mention the 2 inch spacers, use them! They will allow you to bolt the step bars to the existing body bolts, without taking the nuts off. Do not try to take off the existing nuts! You don't need to use them to bolt the bars on.

      These took me about 3 hours to install by myself. An extra set of hands would have been very useful and probably would have saved me an hour but it definitely can be installed as a one man job by someone with very little experience working on cars. No special tools were needed either (just a ratchet and some deep sockets). The written instructions are rather wordy and not always clear but the pictures are very helpful. I did have trouble with a few holes not lining up well but I was able to force it together with some "brute strength" (I put that in quotes because I'm a complete wuss with nothing more than average strength at best but I was able to get it together). They are also very sturdy once installed; I weigh about 190 and I was able to bounce up ad down on them with no giving or bending at all. They also look good. My only concern at this point is how well they will wear over the long run. They seem to be well made and durable but only time will tell.

      I bought these for a new 2013 Toyota Tacoma Double Cab. They were extremely easy to install. All it took was 2 bolts on each of the brackets attached to the vehicle, and another 2 bolts attaching each bracket to the step. In all it took less than an hour. They look fantastic and are quite beefy. The dealership wanted $450 for a similar but far less attractive step. I would highly recommend this product.

      These step bars were purchased through my Wife's account and I installed them in about 2 hours. These step bars would have received 5 stars if the instructions had been better done. The package arrived in good order and was packed very well preventing any damage. Everything was as ordered with no shortages. the mounting brackets were heavy made and the hardware of good quality. The bars look good and appear to be well made and durable as well. After installation they looked very good on my 2010 Ford F150 SuperCab and stand up well to my 260 lbs.Installation went pretty good taking just under 2 hours from start to finish. My installation required no drilling. The only possible need would be to make a couple holes larger. Though mine were tight fits the special fasteners did just make it in. I am very good at this type of thing and I studied the instructions twice before starting the installation. The instructions leave some room for improvement. It took careful...

      Great to have. Simple to attach. Received on times as promissed. Solid and sturdy. Give my truck a really sharp look.

      The product replaces an older set of step bars. They are wider than my old set and fit perfectly. Easy installation. Had them on in less than 2 hours. Thanks!!

      Step bars installed with a perfect fit on a 2012 Tundra Double cab. Only took about an hour to complete and they look great.

      The only reason its not 5 stars is because unlike what AutoPartsWAY says, its not completely compatible with a 2012 Toyota Tundra Double Cab. There are supposed to be three supports (front, middle, and rear), but only the front and rear fit on the Tundra. It still fits securely, and looks great, and installs in minutes. Overall I really like this product, I just wish the third and middle support would have fit.

      The bars arrived very quickly, even with super saver shipping. I took them to a nearby shop and paid the professionals to install. They look great. The old rusted bars took about 4 hours for the shop to get off.

      Directions leave more to be desired, but once you figure everything out, they install quickly. Great product! These actually carry a lifetime warranty not a 5 year.

      True enough; the paper instructions are poor however the packaging ensures no damage to your door. Once you orient yourself to the mounting positions it's a direct and strait forward installation. (It's easy to turn the brackets around and get the left confused with the right if you're looking at the directions.) A good tip is to put a bolt in one of the holes first just to keep the back plate in place while you line up the bracket to bolt on. Once done you can then remove the keeper bolt and then put it into the remaining bracket hole. It will go smoother if you do this. As well make sure you put the front end up on a ramp so that you have plenty of elbow room. I also recommend starting the tube bolt a few turns and assembling the brackets with the tube attached, but not tight. An extra pair of hands may also be nice but not required. These are smart looking and rated for 450lbs. I also like the side vehicle protection that I feel they offer.

      I purchased this exact set of Westin step bars, item 26-1680, in 2007 for my Chevy Silverado extended cab and loved them so much that when I traded the truck and got a new 2012 I bought the same ones again. The old ones still looked great after 5 years of neglect. And I can't imagine the install being any simpler (remove 3 bolts, re-bolt loosely with 3 brackets in place, loosely bolt the step bar to the 3 brackets, align and then tighten everything... repeat on other side). Their only shortcoming is that, despite the premium price, they are imported and are NOT made in the USA. Too bad!

      The product is working great and I had no major difficulties installing the side steps. The kit came with a bag of bolts, four long ones and eight short ones. I initially thought that the long bolts connected the tubing to the support brackets but after I screwed them together I found out that I needed the long bolts for attaching the supports to the front Jeep chassis bracket. It would be good to mention where to use the longer bolts. Otherwise it's a great product.

      These are very high quality and look great. I installed them after dark in my driveway with a flashlight. 6 bolts and you are done! They are very sturdy, do not flex and are very easy to clean. You cannot beat these for the price!!!

      This is a great sturdy step bar set. Good powder coating and fairly easy to install. The only issue I ran into was the front main mounts were miss marked. The passenger side was for driver and vice versa, but other than that simple. I would recommend laying out all the bolts and washers as it made it far easier to determine what went with what. Westin did a great job of having the brackets in separate colored bags. One side was in clear bags and the other in green, also all the parts had letter designations like "DF" for "Driver's Front" which was helpful, except for the one mix up that was easy to figure out.Also it should be noted that the factory body mount bolts on my 2004 Colorado were serrated and would not just slide off the rubber washer bushing. I had to gently use a Dremel so as to lower the high points enough to get the bolt out to be able to install the brackets properly. The instructions made no note of this possibility so not sure if it was done on all years...

      For my AutoPartsWAY "garage" I chose: Body Style: 4 Door Extended Cab Pickup. AutoPartsWAY said they would fit and they did perfectly. This is the wider of the two tube sizes I was looking at. Oval shape looks best and the black looks great with the black wheel wells.I was worried that only attaching these at the two far ends would seem unstable. But each time I step up on them.. and I am not a skinny person.. it feels nice and solid under my foot.The current price (Feb 2012) is a GREAT deal. I paid twice that in Aug of 2011. I am still VERY happy with the purchase.Just take your time installing them. Lay out the parts on a long piece of cardboard on one side at a time, understand where everything goes, get under your truck and look around, and then you are not wondering where something goes when you are half way through.

      The first bar took about an hour to install. Once I figured out what I did wrong, the second one took about 15 minutes. The instructions aren't terribly clear but after a few minutes under my '92 F350 we figured it out.The bars look good and don't sag when carrying the full weight of my fat @ss.(the bars that came on the truck sagged and eventually broke with my 225lbs - they were after market add ons from the previous owner)

      I own a 2012 GMC Sierra 2500HD Crew Cab with the long box and I purchased the 4" Platinum Oval Step Bars by Westin (21-1950). I purchased these from [...] but wanted to review them here for everyone's benefit. They came with free shipping and I found a discount code online that brought the price down to about $280. They shipped very quickly and were at my house within a week of ordering them.The bars came in a very long rectangle cardboard box. Each bar was individually wrapped in bubble wrap. They were separated and held in place in the box by styrofoam. All the installation parts came in a small cardboard box. The packaging was very nice and there was no way anything was getting scratched unless it was scratched at the factory before shipping.The paper instructions are very generic and pretty terrible. The pictures are very small and in black and white so they were pretty much worthless. The ratchet sizes they said to use were also wrong. If you are going to...

      As advertised, these were not difficult to install, although one of the welded nuts on the rear frame attachment popped off. An email to weston has thus far gone unanswered. They do look good, and seem to be well made (except for the afore mentioned weld). My biggest complaint is mostly my own fault. I bought these to assist entry into my '95 F-250 4X4, and I think a different style with a lower step would have been a better choice for me.

      good solid feel. however one part was not welded in so i couldnt put one of the fasteners in, no big deal cause i welded it in myself, however it did take more time for install, but was still very fast to install.

      I must admit I was a little apprehensive buying this product online. I did a bunch of research and made sure I was buying the right set of step tubes. I went to a store locally and the store wanted $500 for the same product installed. I figured they would be really hard to install given the huge ($300) difference in price. I spent 10 Minutes unpacking the parts and reading the instructions. (The step tubes were packed very well) It literally took me 25 minutes to install them on my 2011 Toyota Tundra. When I was done... I could not believe that I just saved $300 in 30 Minutes. They look awesome. They were REALLY easy to install. They were much less than the overpriced custom shop down the street.

      Received these bars in two days using AutoPartsWAY Prime. The bars are well made using quality materials. The instructions, as have been mentioned in previous reviews, are horrible. It wouldn't take much using pictures and such to make them much easier to understand. The bars look great and I'm really happy with the purchase.

      The package is 50lbs and so the bars are very stable. Don't be fooled by the instructions. It looks easy but you may want to get it installed by a shop, since the brackets are mounted into a very small working area. Took me almost 2 hours to put this on by myself without jacking up the Pathfinder and using non-powered socket wrench.Note: Even though Westin's website says this product is for Pathfinder 1999.5 - 2004, it still fits on my 1999 model.

      Ordered these through AutoPartsWAY & installed them yesterday. Looks great on my truck (2006 Tundra). Installation instructions vague in some spots but I was able to figure them out.Only major beef with the instructions was that they tell you to make sure the plastic end caps are in place before you install the bars, but the caps themselves are labeled "Remove before installation" - which is it???Comes with installation kit (bolts, washers, brackets...). Overall - very pleased.

      I purchased the product for help with my family getting in and out of my Tundra easier. I was worried how they may look as I have not been a fan of step bars. The product looks extremelly good on the truck. As an added bonus, the installation took less than 30 minutes and requires no drilling and uses factory holes. Great product that exceeded my expectations.

      These bars were just what I was looking for on my 2011 Toyota Tacoma; even though they are only listed through 2010 (the truck body hasn't changed in 4 years). I like the oval look and the 4.5" step pad surface. Shipped very fast, I used the super saver shipping (8-10 days) and got them in just 4 days. It only took me 20 minutes to install both and all I needed was a socket wrench and a standard screwdriver. The nice part is that Toyota Tacoma's already have the mounting holes, and they fit without having to remove the factory front mud flaps. (One note: Make sure to loosely install all mountings and bolts first before tightening, this will help you to lineup everything correctly.)

      It must be made of really thin stainless steel, it dents easily. However it looks good and makes stepping into the truck very easy for my old parents. The F150 has offroad kit so its a bit high even for regular people. So far no rust but only 3 months old and driven in CO with no salt.

      This is the way to go. Saved money compared to my local retailers. They delivered in 3 days, even though I selected the free 7-9 day window. I installed them myself in about 45min; the first one about 30min the other in 15min.This is my second set of Westin Chrome Platinum Series bars I had them on my 2002 Dodge and now again on my 2008. The 7yr old bars looked great. I took a hard look at Nasta bars, all stainless with all stainless hardware, but the color is slight yellow compared to chrome and they didn't match my trucks body side moldings and wheels.As for AutoPartsWAY, first time buyer, It was the lowest price and easy to use, fast delivery, will shop here again.

      These step bars fit my 2004 Toyota Tacoma 4WD XTRACAB. The description listed them as only fitting up to year 2003, but I noticed the same model number being listed as fitting 2004's on other web sites, so I went ahead and ordered them. Then the instructions that came with the bars listed them for 1995-1999 regular and extended cab. But they still fit my 2004 truck. The mounting system is odd. There were obviously some compromises made to get these bars to fit diff trucks. The instructions were not so good. The telephone tech support person was helpful. In the end, the bars look great and are solid as a rock.Long term follow up: Approaching two years with these step bars and they still look great, no problems. When driving around I see a lot of step bars on other trucks with rust stains, but not on these. The Westin name appears to be deserving of its reputation for quality.

      These step bars were a good replacement for the old rusty ones that were on my Jeep. Only thing I have to complain about is that the directions sent with this product were for a Toyota Pickup. I had to go to the manufacturer's website to get the proper set of instructions.
