Heavy-Duty Steel Running Boards That Give Your Ford Crew Cab a Secure Step Every Time
The GEN-Y GH-25003 running boards bolt directly to your 2017-2024 Ford F-150, F-250, or F-350 Crew Cab without drilling or cutting, adding a full 84-inch stepping platform that spans the length of both cab doors. The step surface is formed with a criss-cross anti-slip pattern that channels water, mud, and debris downward and away from underfoot, keeping the surface clear in all weather. The mild steel construction is finished in a durable black powder coat that resists chipping, fading, and rust, and the boards are rated for up to 400 pounds. Every GENGH-25003 kit includes mounting hardware for a complete bolt-on installation with no modifications to the factory rocker panels.
