Description:
Constructed with coated aluminum, this drop-down running board system delivers long-term corrosion resistance and dependable strength. The modular three-piece layout includes dedicated driver, passenger, and sliding-door steps, allowing individual sections to be installed, adjusted, or replaced as needed. Each step is built around a 1.75" aluminum tube and a wide footbed to provide a stable platform when entering or exiting the vehicle.
The boards are supported by welded (TIG) steel brackets designed for strength and durability. Each bracket incorporates bendable tabs that can be adjusted to match irregularities in the Sprinter’s undercoating, helping the system seat evenly along the body and maintain a secure fit at all mounting locations.
Installation is straightforward and does not require specialized tools. The lightweight construction makes the components easier to position and handle, allowing both DIY owners and professional installers to complete the setup efficiently once mounting points are prepared.
