No reproduction running boards are made for the tonners. On these trucks in particular, they are usually trashed. I have made sets by joining sections of two or more, but a lot of work and mixed results. If I had to just guess, I would say good ones for 300.00 a pair would be a good price. Of course, 100.00 would be better, but I could be tempted by the right ones for 400.00. I don't know your budget, your skills, or the goals you have with your truck. Being a 40 year career woodworker, I once made a pair out of wood and painted them flat black. Very convincing and about 20 bucks.....

thanks GB i was just checking i think i have found a set. i am still very tempted to still build a set out of some oak. i am going to do the bed with some oak that i just cut down. the trees came from my dads house and my father inlaw will help me mill them so they will have some meaning to me.
