Question Tube steps

Who makes the best tube steps? I hate the lighted running boards on my 02 Expy and want to repalce them with Tubes. Who makes the heaviest powder coated sets? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Westin is one of the only companies that have black stainless steel. They have a lifetime warranty also.

I agree with the quality

I agree with the quality of the materials but is the mount solid?

If you go to their site at; http://www.westinautomotive.com/ you can read the mounting instructions for your vehicle. They mount on the rockers like the Superduty or F150. Many people used to think they would be stronger mounted to the frame but the bars would be too long and flex when you step on them. Most companies copy what Westin does for mounting. I have never seen any problems with their mounts.
