I enjoy them on my truck but they are heavy. Roughly 40lb each side

 

I was trying to get the Ionic 41 but could not find any to buy at the time. 

Those look great with BLK on blue.....I thought about BLK on our white Z71, but went with chrome as we have chrome front/back bumpers + few chrome accents......happy with the look tonight, 400 kilometers into the new truck !

Funny I came across this topic because I’m about to take my factory running board brackets and cut them down and drill holes to bring the boards up a little over an inch and bring them in a little. For me it’s mainly for looks. I hate how they hang so low. I took them off and put some 1” spacers under them just to see and it looks good with them tucked up to the body. There was still plenty sticking out to be usable, just have to step up an extra inch which is no big deal for me.

Hey guys - it's been about 3 weeks now and I'm loving the Ionic 41 Series Black, they sit flush with the truck, cleaning them is easy and the kids find it a perfect height to use to step up into the truck. Couldn't have asked for a more perfect product - and the price at $225 was incredible too.

Hey guys. I have the same boards on my gmc sierra 2016. Mine don't sit flush and have a larger gap that I dislike. I had someone install them. Did they install them wrong or is there adjustment I can make to not have the cap you see with brackets?
