TYPES OF STEP BARS

Nerf Bars

There are typically four types of nerf bars: cab-length nerf bars, wheel-to-wheel nerf bars, oval nerf bars, and sport tube nerf bars. The name "nerf" is a racing term used when a race car driver bumps another car in order to pass them. To make this move easier, race cars have tubes on each side of their car, which help ensure that their tires don't rub each other. If they did, since the cars are going so fast, they could spin out of control. The look and style of this has been adopted by trucks and SUVs. It's a very popular option that makes your truck look cool. Call LINE-X of Macon to learn about all of the styles of nerf bars we carry.

Running Boards

Running boards look like boards. Odds are, if your truck came with any type of step, it was a running board as they are the more standard version of steps. They are flat and typically run all the way along the truck or SUV's cabin beneath the doors. There is typically no space left between the vehicle and these steps. They tend to be bigger than nerf bars and thus a bit safer.

Steps

Another style you'll see of steps is just individual footholds by the driver's and passenger's door or for the back seat as well if the truck or SUV has four doors. These tend to be just big enough to place your foot to get a leg up into your vehicle. They are open by nature, so they can get dirty in inclement weather. Since there is the least amount of material involved, steps are the most affordable option for most people.
