I just recently had N-fab step rails installed on my truck. So far I like them a lot. They are identical to the ones switchblade posted above. Supposedly capable of supporting up to 450lbs, so they are a lot more sturdy than most on the market. Here is a picture of mine. Picture isn't the greatest, but I haven't had time to get my truck cleaned up and get some good pictures since putting them on. Just a note though, the front Mopar molded splash guards won't fit with these. Which I unfortunately found out after the fact.

I was really impressed when i saw the review of these, and seeing them in person on a buddies 2009, i went ahead and ordered them. They seem really similar, if not identical to the Westin steps, and for half the price, you cant go wrong.

I paid $413 shipped. You can check to see if any local Performance/Truck shops sell them but they are probably more expensive. I ordered mine online from www.4wheelonline.com

Here is N-fab's site http://www.n-fab.com/

I just installed a set of Luverne S/S running boards. Man they sure look good and makes it so much easier to get into the animal. 6 1/2" steps gives my big foot plenty of solid surface to step on. Bought them from www.runningboardwarehouse.com for $389 delivered.
