Remove power running boards and replace with nerf bar?

[spotdog14]

Since my drivers side running board no longer works I am thinking about attempting to replace them with something similar to this.

I like the look of them and think they will tuck up under the door similar to how the non deployed power board does. I figure I will have to find someone to custom fabricate me some brackets but has anyone else done something like this?

I briefly considered N-Fab "Harley Bars" when one of our 3D Carbon rocker extenders cracked a few years back. They make another one you might be interested in more, looks like the Harley Bar but with steps attached. They call them wheel to wheel bars, worth a look.

Can I ask what are you going to do with them once you take them off. I am trying to find some for my 07 EL

Not a clue, besides parts I don't think they are much good. The motor on the drivers side is done and the one on the passenger side is going.

The rock rails with steps will be more sturdy and can provide better side protection.
