Olympic Double Nerf Bars

When you are talking about Nerf bars do you know what the difference is between them and running boards?  They both give you a secure area to step on when entering and exiting a vehicle.  Does that mean that they are all the same?  Not a chance.  They might be similar but they do have a few notable differences.    

The major difference between the two is right in the area where you step.  A running board will have a pad that you step on.  This pad will go from one end of the running board to the other end.  This means that you and anyone who rides with you will always be sure to have footing that is secure.  Nerf bars have padded step areas too.  The difference is that with a Nerf bar the padded area will only be where the doors are on your vehicle.

There are many different styles and types of Nerf bars and running boards that you can choose from.  This should depend on what your needs are as well as what your preferences are.  If you happen to be looking for a Nerf bar for a truck, SUV or Jeep then you might want to look at the ones that go from the front wheel to the rear wheel.  For trucks this is especially helpful as they will also serve to give you easier access to the bed of your truck.  There are also oval Nerf bars.  This type of Nerf bar will give you a wider area to step on.

In addition to Nerf bars and running boards, there are also truck steps.  These differ from the others in that they are shorter.  With a truck step you will get a step area that is the optimal width without the appearance of your rig being altered.

Double Nerf Bars

Now, for those who like Nerf bars there are the double Nerf bars brought to you by Olympic 4 x 4.  These bars come to you with 2 lateral bars that have vertical stanchions between them to give them additional strength.  These bars can easily reverse from the down position to the up position simply by taking out a security bolt and sliding it right off the system used for mounting.  You can use the bars in the up position for times when you are off road.  The down position can easily be used like it is a step for you to use when getting in or out of your Jeep.
