5" Gladiator Running Boards Toyota 4Runner (Trail Edition Only) 2010-2011

Hello all.

First time poster, long time reader & long time 4R driver (3rd, 4th & now 5th).

I just purchased the following running boards for my 5th gen TE:

5" Gladiator Running Boards Toyota 4Runner (Trail Edition Only) 2010-2011

5" Gladiator Running Boards Toyota 4Runner (Trail Edition Only) 2010-2011

Does anybody have them, or have any experience with them?

Thanks

This is the first time I have seen these. They look nice for a running board/step...not too practical the keep the snow off. The price does not seem bad for what they are.

For that price, you can buy a pair of rock rails to use as steps and protect your car at the same time.

They look nice though.

Got my running boards the other day. Bringing them to my mechanic to install them (no garage space to do it myself and its been pouring rain here for the past few days). I will post pics as soon as they are installed...hopefully by tonight!

Your right, they look very similar to the factory running boards. Here is a link to the classifieds where a set is for sale for just 150.00 and they came off an SR5. Not sure why the Gladiators are for "Trail" only, looks like they would fit any model.
