What are you after??

Original style??
there is a heavy duty and the thin brazilian stuff

And then there is the solid aluminium stuff.

Even the HD original style rusts and collapses after a few years of living outside

Personally I like the aluminium ones. They dont have the curve of the rubber but they actually work and last

Futue te ipsum!!!

Hi
there is a For sale and wanted section

also read the rules of selling and buying

Name phone number location etc

All running boards from 1968 to 1976 are ALL the same..

If You look around and are pretty lucky...
You may find some that are thick enough but don't cost an arm and a leg....

I bought some cheap heavy duty ones... so they were called... but can't remember where i bought them...

they are strong enough to stand on...
NOT that any one normally does... lol

whatever you buy You need toanti rust them under the rubber and underneath
Fish oil is cheap and easy to use...

best of luck

Mick Motors in Brissy have some cool stainless steel ones for not much more than new standard ones. They have a nice louvre piece set into them as well. I think I paid around $115 for the pair from memory.

Cheers
