I saw these in a catalog. They looked good on most of the trucks but they didn't have a picture of one on an HD?
Does anyone have pics in their garage?

Check my garage. Since I am in a wheelchair, they keep me from skinning up my rocker pannel with my chair. I love em...

those look good.
I like the fact that they are close to the truck. I usually take the step boards off my trucks because I am 6'5" and really don't need them. I always just step over them. Now that I have the 1500 HD It looks like it needs something there. I thought these would be out of the way and still hide some of the frame rail that is visable.

I also have them & they are a little close to the truck but I like the look. Iv'e gotten used to turning my foot a little to the side when getting in / out.
I also like the way they mount, the brackets are kinda concealed & not hanging way down like some I see.
Over all im happy with them :)

are they ment to be steps or just cool looking bars.
to be honest, the reason that I like them is because they are close to the truck. I don't need a step bar.:D

Big country makes stainless that look identical to Westin but are cheaper with a lifetime warranty. I have them on my 06 GMC Crew Cab and I like them.

I have them ... since I'm running 295's it makes the extra hop for the missus easier. I also like the look close to the body.
