Review on πŸš— DEE ZEE Aluminum Black Powder Coat Bumper Step: Premium Accessory for Easy Vehicle Entry by Yung Kaelin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Looks great and strong, is not easy to fit

Looks great and feels very solid. Installation on my 2021 Ram 1500 Eco-Diesel proved more difficult than expected. The wiring harness gets in the way, I didn't have to unplug it, but it made the job moderately difficult. On my truck, I had to use a 7/8" socket (non-metric), and it helps to have a long-handled socket, an extension handle, and extension nuts. Oh, and a bright work light. My truck is primed and has a 10,000+ lb trailer hitch. Since this thing mounts in the same place as the drawbar, it's important to get it right. The screws are difficult to access, difficult to remove, and difficult to install and tighten. It took me two hours to undo and reinstall 3 screws. Yes it was fun. All this to say that this thing is well made, durable and good looking. My old legs will appreciate it. Additional note: folks, this is a DIRECT FIT thing. The one I got is for the new Body Ram 1500 Ram pickup, 2019 and newer. If you have another truck, do not purchase until you have verified the manufacturer's part number/serial number on the DEE-ZEE website at DEEZEE-dt-com. It may not fit at all, or the holes in it may not match the bolts on your truck. Check the SKU to make sure it matches. They have a drop down menu that will take you to the one that fits. (but take it here, mine was cheaper).
