Running board width

[SoulMafia]

Last question, how much adjustment inward and outward would you say they have? 1/4", 1/2"...

No sure, but there’s def wiggle room to adjust. Here’s a pic of the bracket and install video. If unsure, call Real Truck, there super helpful.

Does anybody know why the rb20 running boards go narrow? Is this because of the universal board design?

There are 2 designs of the RB20 normal and slim. Normal go from 7 1/2 inches whereas the slim are 5 1/2 inches. Thats just the design of them. They have always been like that.

Deciding on which width and budget is the only concerns I have.

Will the slim ones work for the Raptor as well?

They will work. They are narrower than the raptor ones.

The RBX0 and the RBX0S are a semi universal design and I wasn't thrilled with it. I don't trust that the board won't side under some situations.

On the topic of running boards, I had some bad luck with a few brands rusting before 8 weeks, so I wanted aluminum. Was a a great deal on a set SRX2 which are a sweet deal right now at $199 with free shipping.

Do you find the slims enough space to step on. My wife is short?

I noticed a predator 4x4 raptor style running board is available in Europe. I like the style as they don't have the taper and are almost identical to the raptor.

Yep, my girlfriend is 5’2” and has no issues.

Dang, the ranger raptor steps are so much better than the tyger ones i have. They are solid and wider. My son and i put the ones i picked up from codymac on this morning. An inch wider then mine and just thick solid steel versus the stamped universal one i have.

I now have to find some raptor ones for my truck.

Finally got a set of raptor steps for my stx ranger.

Raptor steps are an inch wider and sit and inch lower than my previous tyger steps, which is great to me. I wanted as wide as i could find and my wife likes them being lower.

Tyger and raptor next to each other

These two are from the mounting surface to the end of the step surface

These two are from the ground to the step surface

These two are from the body to the end of the step surface

This is just the view of the driver side
