Westin 28-534345 R5 Modular Wheel-to-Wheel Nerf Step Bars

Enhance your truck's accessibility and style with the Westin 28-534345 R5 Modular Wheel-to-Wheel Nerf Step Bars. Designed for crew cab trucks, these bars provide a safe, wide 5-inch stepping platform that spans the length of your vehicle, offering convenient access to both the cab and the truck bed cargo area.

Product Description

The Westin R5 M-Series Wheel-to-Wheel Nerf Step Bars are engineered to solve the challenge of accessing high-profile truck beds and cabs. Featuring an extra-wide 5-inch footprint with three skid-resistant step pads, these bars ensure secure footing in all conditions. Constructed from high-grade, corrosion-resistant steel, the modular design allows for easier shipping without the need for expensive truck freight. The unique Isolator Bracket system provides support past the cab area, eliminating the common issue of unsupported "bouncing" or creaking found in standard aftermarket steps. Designed for a direct rocker panel mount, these bars offer a clean, professional look for your vehicle.

Why Choose This Product?

Choosing the Westin R5 series means investing in engineering that prioritizes structural integrity. Unlike generic bars that may creak or flex, the proprietary Isolator Bracket ensures a solid feel underfoot.
