Wait what!!!!

…….i can see it now…….Ford voiding the entire warranty on the TREMOR because the running boards were swapped from one side to the other side.

……..It’s amazing how so many people are so quick to jump onto something like this especially since before seeing the video, they never reported any issues.

I questioned the dealer at the time of purchase they said there all like that well they're wrong . The video is correct .the angled part is behind mudflap so rocks shouldn't get up past . I just switched mine and now the mirror light shines on the ford on running boards . And the grooves in the step line up with the doors

Swapping my trucks this weekend.
It's crazy that no one at Ford realized their mistake. (probably never will )
They must never ask the engineers/designers to review the final product. It's crystal clear that they were installed reversed, once you know.

Are the 21-23's the same as the 24 & 25's?

Something something if you asked people what they wanted they would say faster horses.

And yes the 21-23 trucks use Gen 2 style boards while 24+ running boards were changed to the same style as Gen 3 Raptors as a cost cut to simplify product supply. 25+ Raptors and Tremors (and now the 26 Lightning STX) share the exact same boards. They removed Raptor specific stampings further increasing cost cuts.

It does seem to make sense to swap them. However, according to Ford:

I did it

Sorry....looks like they are now mounted backwards.

Of course the boards are supposed to be wider aft of the front wheel....the flared out part also protects the body from rocks being thrown as the front wheels are steered left/right. When that happens, more tread will be exposed throwing even more crap up against the body.
