Rough Country Power Running Boards with LED Step Lights for Ford Bronco, 2-Door (2021-2025) - Dual-Motor Electric Running Boards & Retractable Steps

Was quoted ridiculous prices from multiple sources for a provide and install for power running boards for our 2023 4Dr Bronco. I decided that my best option would be to take a chance and install myself as I consider myself fairly handy, but by no means am I a mechanic or overly familiar with vehicle components. Because these boards had decent reviews, and the price overall was too good to pass, I took a chance on these. So glad I did. I would agree with others that the instructions are not great, especially when you get to the wiring harness install and routing. The boards mounted extremely easily with the bolts supplied. The wiring harness needs to be routed above the frame so as to avoid having anything exposed on the underside., but by looking at a few you-tube videos and google, I was able to get everything routed and installed with the quick connects. Just plan to have more zip ties to tuck everything up nice and neat. Connection to the battery was fairly strait forward once you get the power leads routed up to the battery area. The most difficult part and where I stumbled was with the magnet locations as they trigger the door sensors to raise and lower the boards. One thing to know as nothing was working for me at the start. After a quick call to customer care.....open all the doors, close all the doors once everything is installed and powered. Let the system recognize everything and within a 15 - 20 seconds, and then after opening a door, the sensors started working properly. I guess it just takes a second for the system to configure. So far I've had this installed for 3 months with no issues. Looks great, and can't be more pleased with this purchase.

Killer productEasy install !!!Beware you my need to adjust door sensors wires as they where too short

I am very happy with the steps. The mechanical installation is simple and straight forward. The wiring could be that way too, but... the instructions leave a lot to be desired.All they needed to tell you is that only 3 of the "wires" from the wiring harness need to go inside the vehicle. The brown, white and on off switch. Also, there are 2 nuts that hold the driver's kick panel (under the dead pedal) that must be removed to get it out. The door magnet connections essentially go under the entry kick plates and connect to the brown and white wires.Overall GREAT PRODUCT!

These look great, are the perfect height to help my kids get into and out of my Bronco, and they really tuck in tight when the doors close. I’m only giving them 4 stars because the wiring portion and the door sensors were a pain. Took me and my dad about 5 hours total to install them.

As many reviews have stated , the instructions need a little help.I installed these on my 2-door Bronco in about 4 hrs. This was casually working along with a couple"beverage" breaks here and there. I'm happy I reviewed the instructions about 4 times. Between that and a couple of on-line vids , I was able to get a pretty good understanding of how to install everything. I'd say the wiring harness was the most time consuming component to install. I knew what needed to go where but the routing was the time consumer. From there , everything went very smooth , with no issues. The sensors were the easiest thing to do. Just use blue tape on the door sensor when trying to align the magnet location. You can easily move it around while trying to align it. It took me about 5 mins per door. Some reviews say it took "hours" ??All components seem to be built really well.Looks and works amazing!So much easier getting in and out .I've had other brands of these and would consider these to be very comparable to some of the more popular brands...would recommend these for sure.Again...reading the instructions multiple times and understanding them , was a huge time saver for me.Most reviews say its taking them 6 hrs plus. I can easily see how it would take someone that long if they just cracked the box open and started installing.

I installed the Rough Country retractable steps on my 2022 Ford Bronco with Sasquatch option with factory steps.Previous to installation I would scrape my back on top of door jam every time I got into the Bronco. The new Rough Country Steps when extended are low enough to allow entry without having to crouch to avoid hitting my back on top of door jam.LED lights provide plenty of light at night for safe entry into the Bronco.The steps when retracted make the Bronco look like a lift kit has been installed.Installation not recommended for novice installer but not difficult.The instructions need to be revised to include better/clear photo. Section 4 calls out 17mm socket but bolts have a 16mm hex head. Section 4 does not mention that control box goes on driver side of vehicle. The instructions indicate to fish brown and white harness wires through rubber plug located under carpet on driver side. In my opinion this is correct for the brown wire only. The brown wire controls driver side doors. The white harness wire controls passenger doors and there is no provision in instructions to route wire to passenger side of vehicle inside the cab. I pulled white wire out from under driver side and routed it on transfer case frame rail to passenger side front floor rubber plug.5th photo is of white (covered by black wire loom) wire routed on back and top of transfer case cross member and then secured by wire loom clamp on driver side and zip ties on passenger side and then through rubber grommet on front passenger side floor.6th & 7th photos are of passenger motor and LED light wiring harness routed on frame rail that goes over drive shaft and then over fuel tank. Several zip ties used to make sure harness does not fall onto drive shaft.8th photo is of how i mounted door sensors and magnets.I took me a good 6 hours to install. Novice can plan on 8-12 hours for installation. The most difficult part is routing the wiring harness.

Easy to install, very sturdy and great instructions!
