So I've had my Rebel for two weeks now, and I've had nerf bars on my last truck. Now I'm looking into the nerf bar/steps for my Rebel. What do you think looks better. I do like the step look, but wonder since the truck does go lower if it looks right. Looking at the Westin steps and/or the Westin Pro-Traxx. Opinions? Pictures?

Ahhh, ye old steps or nerf bar question. We went into detail here: http://www.ramrebelforum.com/forum/appearance-body/1978-nerf-bar-running-boards.html

People posted pictures of what they have installed too. Maybe it'll give you an idea on what you'd like for yours.

I've read that post every day, studied it etc. Not too many "steps" look, at least not from far away. My question was a bit different. I want people to post a pic from a distance, not close up,

I posted mine in that thread from a distance for you.

Thanks for everything. Since I made some calls to different sources, even someone local (buy local!) well the person that was the farthest got back to me and really helped me out and had something in stock and installing Saturday! I ended up with the Iron Cross HD Steps. American Made and long lasting! Will post pictures after this weekend.

Glad you ended up getting the help you were looking for. I'll be looking forward to seeing some pictures to see exactly what you have ended up going with.

American made is a nice bonus.

Had the Iron Cross installed today, and also put on the tonneau cover from Tonno Pro

I really like the N-Fab nerf bars, so I contacted them in early October when I got my Rebel. My truck has the pre-installed 8mm nuts at each mounting hole, and the air suspension bracket in the way on the left front.

I sent N-Fab the info that people posted in these forums on the changes to the mounting points and the air suspension bracket with them. I also sent them photos of everything underneath. N-Fab's mounting setup would require cutting one of their mounting plates where it conflicts with the air suspension bracket. I really didn't want to do that, mostly because I didn't want to introduce a possible new point of corrosion if I didn't get the area sealed up well. I live up near Chicago and salt in the winter here is pure **** on undercarriages.

N-Fab looked at all I sent and told me to contact them back in 30 days for a version to fit the 2015 and newer models. I do see on their web site that they now have a version of their bars for "2015.5-2016" so I think they've addressed the change. I've sent the contact an email this morning to verify.

Their site is Manufacturers of high quality Nerf Steps, Prerunners, Harley Bars, Light Bars, Replacement Front Bumpers, Rock Rails, Rear Runners, Tire Carriers & Truck Accessories.

Thanks for taking the time to send them the info and have it corrected for the future!
