Construction & Design

The APS S Series Running Boards are crafted from robust carbon steel, providing a solid foundation that withstands daily wear and harsh conditions. The step area features durable polyethylene (PE) with a textured, slip-resistant surface to ensure safe footing in all weather conditions. The black powder-coated finish not only enhances the visual appeal but also offers superior resistance against rust and corrosion, extending the life of the running boards even in challenging environments.

Attention to detail is evident in the serrated step pads, which actively help remove mud and debris from footwear, reducing dirt transfer into your truck’s interior. This thoughtful design element combines functionality with style, making these running boards a practical upgrade for any Dodge Ram or Ram truck owner.

Installation of the APS S Series Running Boards is straightforward, requiring mounting to the vehicle’s rocker panels with included brackets and hardware.

APS (often known in the Subaru community as Air Power Systems) is a legacy performance brand recognized for turbo and intercooler hardware used on high-output Subaru builds.
