Running Board Mount Kit

The WESTIN Running Board Mount Kit (WES27-1895) is the essential hardware solution for technicians and truck owners installing aftermarket step bars on full-size Dodge Ram trucks from 2009 to 2024. This mounting kit eliminates the guesswork of frame-to-running-board attachment by providing OEM-grade brackets and fasteners engineered to handle the structural demands of a heavy-duty pickup. Whether you're upgrading fleet vehicles or customizing your personal truck, this kit ensures a secure, professional installation that maintains factory-level integrity.

Constructed from steel and finished in black powder coat, the running board mount kit delivers durability against road salt, moisture, and UV exposure—critical for vehicles operating in harsh environments. The kit's weight of 11.73 lbs reflects substantial, gauge-appropriate steel rather than lightweight alternatives that compromise load capacity. The bracket design distributes passenger and worker weight evenly across the truck's frame mounting points, preventing stress concentration that could compromise frame integrity during daily use or emergency loading situations. Powder coat finishing provides both aesthetic consistency with modern truck styling and corrosion resistance that outlasts bare steel or spray-applied coatings.

Mechanics and fleet managers benefit from the kit's plug-and-play compatibility with standard cab Dodge Ram full-size trucks across the 2009–2024 model range, eliminating custom fabrication on each installation. The included fasteners are sized for factory drilling points, reducing installation time and minimizing frame modifications. Professional installers appreciate the engineering precision that accommodates factory variations across production years, while owner-operators gain confidence in a solution backed by WESTIN's reputation for OEM-quality truck accessories. Installation requires basic hand tools and approximately one to two hours per vehicle, making this the smart choice for both commercial operations and DIY enthusiasts seeking professional-grade results.
