Hey all, new dodge owner and of course new to the forum. I'm looking to purchase and install some nerf bars and I''ve narrowed it down to the Lund 5" oval nurfs for my 2008 2500 Quad cab (Laramie if that matters). has anybody purchased/ installed some, were they the 80" or 87" and how do they look?

Several websites are telling me the 87" are the ones for my truck (even though my cab measures 80") and the mounting holes line up regardless of Quad or Mega cab...

 

Welcome to the site. I will moe this thread to the third generation Ram section,

I have a new set of Lund bars out in the garage that I am going to try to install tomorrow on my QC 1500. I'll let ya know after I get them out of the box.

 

Welcome to the site

 

I have been working OT, I should be home around 6:30pm EST tomorrow and will try to remember to measure them then.

 

Thank you and look forward to hear how the install went, the length and the overall look.

 

They sent me 87" bars. The sticker says 06-09 MegaCab/ 02-08 Quadcab.
I won't get to put them on until maybe Sunday. They are nice looking and 6" wide I believe. I'll try to post up a picture soon.

 

Finally got them on today. These are a 6" bar that actually sticks out far enough to use vs the oem 4" bars. The step sections are actual soft rubber for a no slip step. Nice. They also use 4 brackets instead of 2 like the OEM, although I never had any issues with the OEM bars except that they were too far under the truck to use as a step to wash and wax the roof
Here are a couple of pictures.

Found them here http://mudflaps.com/i-6497091-lund-2...ng-boards.html

 

They look great lx,

I like them. Now I can clean the roof without a ladder The Mopar bars look good, but are too far under the truck to stand on without the doors open.
