Running Board for 06 Tundra

I just bought an 06 Tundra double cab, limited, with the TRD package, and I LOVE it!! This is the first Toyota truck I have ever owned. I used to be a dyed in the wool, die hard Ford fan. I traded in an 04 F-250 for my new baby! I don't think I am EVER going to stop smiling!

FWIW, I got these off Ebay for $155 shipped. They went on easy, look nice and seem to be good quality.

I used to have GoRhino! ss tubular running boards on my last truck. They are awesome!!

Nerf Bars

Try Summit Racing. I bought bolt on (no drilling) Westin step bars in black for $235. I don't remember how much the Chrome ones were. My only disappointment was that one of the nerf bars had a small ding and some scratches but that is the risk of mail order. Summit charged $5 for oversize shipping and I think $8.95 handling. Mounting was pretty simple using the supplied brackets and holes already in the truck frame. Delivery was within 5 days of ordering. Stuart

Hi All,

I'm a new member and better yet a new Tundra owner. I just bought my 06 Tundra 4x4 Access Cab (Step-side) tonight. Yay!

Anyways, I'm looking for suggestions on a tubular chrome step/running board. Toyota has the "Tubular Sideboards by GFX" listed on the website, but I'm open to any suggestions.

Ideally, I'd like to avoid any drilling.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks!!! Those look nice on your truck. If I decide to get some boards, I think those will be my choice. I love how the rubber weather strip comes up and seals the gap in that last picture. My wife and kids want have to jump and climb to get in then. LOL Do they come with easy bolt up mounts or did you have to drill and do stuff to get them on???

Thanks for the compliments....yes I like that they have the look of Nerfs with the SS tube but do not allow your foot to slip and get wedged in between the bar and truck....the rubber gap strip works wonders too!!! very satistifed with the coverage and looks.....as for the brackets....They came with easy to assemle mounts and I had to drill two holes in the frame...however, after the install I sent pictures and suggestions back to ONKI and they now have a mount system specific for the Tundra....a fellow member over on www.tundrasolutions.com has used them and said they were decent and he likes them....and didn't have to drill the frame like I did....the brackets were modified to use the existing holes in the truck frame.
