Looking For Crew Cab Running Boards

I am looking for a set of running boards or bars for my crew. Does anyone know of a company that makes a set for these trucks?

Re: Looking For Crew Cab Running Boards

Thanks for the pictures. That is what I am looking for. My trucks all have to see quite a bit of gravel use and I can't stand seeing the paint getting hammered off the rockers and front of the rear wheel wells daily.

Boards may not be the coolest option out there but nothing protects the body like they do!

Just did some searching.
Beets Running Boards Inc. MItchell, ON

I am going to have to contact them and see if they still supply boards for these old girls. A huge bonus that they are in Canada. Don't have to deal with customs and exchange rates.

Yes Jim, boards like that would be great! I am starting to think I will have to have them custom made unless I can find a nice set of used ones.
