Never heard of those. If you live in an area where the roads are salted, beware. Some of those step bars are very light gauge and will rust out in a year or two.
The only experience I have is with N-Fab. I put a set on an Expedition that lasted and looked great for years. They were very solid and what I would get if my truck didn’t have steps
already.
A friend of mine put Aries brand steps on his truck and he likes them a lot.

If I ever get my oil issue under control, I’ll have a set of factory chrome steps going out to pasture. I have a set of all stainless waiting to go on, but not if the truck is going to go back to Ford or the scrap yard. 😆 Did you try running board warehouse?

Be sure if you mount running boards with steel brackets (which is most or maybe all of them), that you have rubber insulation or some kind of insulation between the bracket and the aluminum body that you're bolting it to. All new steps come with this, but if you're buying used ones, either get those parts or use electrical tape or something to prevent galvanic corrision on your rockers.

Oof. I’ve seen your posts on the 2018 5.0 thread that is ROUGH. I just bought a new 2018 5.0 myself and started running it hard (or harder than I’m used to) in sport mode in hope of that helping prevent the problem from developing. Mine was built in July of 2018, so I’m praying they at least tried to do something to make them better after they saw what a disaster the initial run was. Anyway, I wound up getting a set of boxy looking Tyger nerf bars from Amazon for about $200.
