A running board replacement is a relatively minor repair that can become time consuming if your worker has to take off on a hunting expedition to gather together all the right parts.

Replacement kits reduce nonproductive time while they help you get cars back in service faster, by giving you all the parts you need to do the job in one place, at one time. Kits also help substantially reduce the number of different parts you must maintain in inventory.

Kits are available in five standard widths that meet most requirements (see chart). Other custom sizes are available in quantity on special order. Order a supply of your most commonly used sizes today, to be prepared for the next car that needs board replacement.

Installation Procedure:

1) Cut grating section to desired length
