Bent Running Board

Well today was a rough day from the time I got up and at the end if the day I was a dummy.

I turned a corner too tight where I work (I knew better) and I went over a snow pile. Well needless to say it was more ice than snow and I heard it. I bent the factory cab step in the back.

Has anyone had any luck bending them back? Stealership wants $650 each. I might go aftermarket but I really like factory chrome ones that are on the truck.

Any ideas out there?

I am getting ready to replace my factory chrome steps and will have them up for sale if you would be interested.

I am most likely interested unless I find one local, which looks doubtful.

Snow, whats that. I am in N.E. Ohio and haven't had enough snow to even pick up a shovel. Let alone pile snow with a plow. Sorry,just venting. Lol

I've only had luck bending the rocker mounted brackets themselves back into vertical, the steps themselves once bent are very difficult to undo. I'm sorry there isn't a simpler answer!
