It is the aluminum line in the Go Rhino step range, and that single material choice drives most of what makes it different.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bar is built around a heavy-duty extruded aluminum core with alloy mounting brackets, so the assembly stays light while still carrying real load. Aluminum does not rust, and every alloy component is finished in textured black powder coat for a second layer of corrosion protection on a part that lives inches off the road in mud, salt spray, and slush. Each step position carries an aggressively textured polymer step pad, 5 inches wide, with a tire-tread pattern that gives your boot something to bite into when the surface is wet or icy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtruded Aluminum Core\u003c\/strong\u003e Lightweight alloy construction that does not rust, so the structure holds up in salt states and wet climates.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 Inch Step Width\u003c\/strong\u003e A wide, flat landing spot at every door instead of a narrow tube, so your foot lands square getting in and out.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e300 lb Rating Per Pad\u003c\/strong\u003e Each step pad is rated to 300 pounds, 600 pounds per side, so the bars take a loaded climb into the cab without complaint.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTextured Polymer Step Pads\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep tire-tread texture at each door for traction in rain, snow, and mud, instead of a bare rounded tube underfoot.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTextured Black Powder Coat\u003c\/strong\u003e A corrosion-resistant finish covered by a 5 year finish warranty, so the bars keep their look through winter road treatment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003c!-- specs-table --\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGo Rhino\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNerf Bar Side Steps\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAluminum\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight Rating\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e600 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eStep Width\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5 Inch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFinish\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTextured Black Powder Coat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMounting\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMounts to Rocker Panel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWarranty\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLimited Lifetime Warranty, 5 years on finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a bolt-on, no-drill install.

Conventional hand tools are all you need, and Go Rhino puts the job at roughly an hour. The one thing worth planning for is a second set of hands, since a cab-length bar is awkward to hold level while you start the bracket bolts by yourself.
