Video Transcript for Review of Performance Tool Nerf Bars - Running Boards - Tire Step - PT68ZR
Jeff: Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today, we're going to take a look at this wheel step with the non-slip surface and a 300 pound weight capacity. Now, this wheel step will let you access any hard to reach places in your vehicle's engine, or roof. Zoom in here and you can see that the step itself has a nice galvanized metal cheese grater surface. Gives you incredible grip in even the best and worst conditions. And it is an open design, lets any mud, slush or debris pass through the step, doesn't build up on the step itself.
And as you can see, this demonstration we have on a tire, you can just install it right over the top of your tire and it supports your weight when you step on it, by bracing up against the tire itself.Now, it will fit any tire with a cross width of 13 inches or less. They do have adjustable pins right on here on each end that you can pull the clips, pull the pins out, and this will extend out. Right now, it's roughly about nine inches so it'll extend out even further to fit around a 13 inch maximum width tire. Also gives you a four position height adjustment, if you notice right on here. Same way there's a pin on the side and a pin on that side, if you pull the clip out, pull the pin out, it's got two holes here and then three holes on here.
So you can actually have four different height adjustments for the step itself.Few dimensions on the step, the length of it, one end to the other's right at about 21 and a half inches long. The width of just the step is about seven and a half inches wide. And again, the weight capacity is about 300 pounds. And what's nice about the step, you can see the step will fold up if he need it out of the way, but also when you remove it from your tire, if you notice, when you lift it up, you can let the back fold in and then it'll fold down on the step. So it actually folds into a nice compact size for easy storage.
And then when you go to use it, all you have to do, just open it up, take it, put it up against your tire, drop it over the top, level it, and you're all ready to go simple as that. But that should do it for the review on this wheel step with the non-slip surface and the 300 pound weight capacity..

I have a 4WD Suburban and recently purchased a car top carrier. Problem was I couldn't load/unload it without a step ladder, and I didn't want to carry a step ladder around. I ordered the wheel step - problem solved. It works great and folds almost flat for storage. Great product!
by: Priscilla 05/10/2023
This is so handy! I once had to get something off my SUV roof and had to find a guardrail to stand on to reach what I wanted. This is so much easier and safer.

Perfect for getting up to the topper rack on my lifted Ram 2500.
by: Steve11/30/2022
Lowest step could be lower. I'm 70 years old and have all the old guy limitations. A lower first step would still give me access to the bed and engine compartment without having to lift my self on one leg to get up.
by: Douglas12/17/2021
This step is awesome. Flat for storage but gives me instant access to top of shell, windshield for cleaning and under hood.

See what our Experts say about this Performance Tool Truck Bed Step
- Easier Way to Access Fifth Wheel Hitch on Flatbed TruckThere is no extension for a fifth wheel hitch handle to let you access it from a distance. The best solution for you would be to use something like the Wheel Step # PT68ZR, assuming your flatbed does not jut out over the tires too significantly. Otherwise, a simple step stool such as # TE97FR is your best option.

- Will the Permance Tool Folding Wheel Step Fit 275/70R17 Tire SizeSo the Performance Tool Folding Wheel Step # PT68ZR will easily fit your tire size of 275/70-17 since that's much narrower than the max width of this rack. Your tire is less than 11 inches wide and the # PT68ZR will fit tires up to 13 inches. This does not go all the way over to the other side of the inner tire and basically just rests on the inner shoulder is how it is able to fit the narrower width.
view full answer... - Roof Top Cargo Carrier Recommendations for 2013 Honda PilotI have a couple options for you regarding a roof-top cargo carrier for your 2013 Honda Pilot and they all allow for the unimpeded opening of your rear hatch. Regarding a basket, I recommend the Thule Canyon # TH859XT. It measures 40 inches wide by 49 inches long by 6 inches tall. It has a maximum weight capacity of 150 lbs. You might also be interested in the Thule Cargo Net # TH692. It secures the items in your MOAB with impact-resistant hooks and is 40 inches by 36 inches unstretched....
view full answer... - Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform Rack and Folding Ladder for 2018 Ford ExpeditionThere is a way to add a Rhino Rack Platform to your 2018 Ford Expedition but there is not one that attaches directly to your vehicle. If your Expedition has factory installed rails that run front to back you can add a roof rack, the Rhino-Rack Vortex StealthBar # JB0190. From there you can add the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform # RR42115BF which is a universal mount that will attach to your Expedition's roof rack. I've attached a link to a video review of the universal mount Pioneer for you...

It will allow full opening of the Highlander's rear hatch as long as there is at least 47-inches from the center of the front crossbar to the seam where the roof and hatch meet. The Skybox NX 16 has external dimensions of 79-1/2" long x 35" wide x 16" tall...
view full answer... - Cargo Box Recommendation for a 79 inch Long LadderIt would be a tight fit, but the smallest box you could get that would fit your ladder would be the Thule Force XL Rooftop Cargo Box # TH6358B. The internal dimensions of this box are 80" long x 32-1/2" wide x 15" tall. Only thing is it doesn't have a rear opening. It opens from the side. All of the boxes we carry now only open from the side. To make loading and unloading easier you might also be interested in a tire step like # PT68ZR.

I did check with Thule to confirm this fit for you. The Pulse does come with everything you need to mount it to your crossbars and uses a clamping system like in the photo I added to tightly grip your crossbars. If you go to the 0:35 mark of the video I linked of this box being installed on a...

- Will the Thule Motion Cargo Box Fit the Factory Roof Rack on a 2011 Buick EnclaveYes, the Thule Motion cargo box, # TH629706, is a fit for the factory crossbars on your 2011 Buick Enclave. I have included a link to a video review of this box being installed on a similar vehicle with a similar roof rack for you. I also recommend using a tire step, # PT68ZR, which will make accessing the box easier. Be sure to check the Enclave owner's manual and/or with Buick for the roof/roof rack weight capacity prior to loading.
view full answer... - Lightweight Portable Step for Use with Thule Force Rooftop Cargo Box on Tall SUVYou are correct that the size and weight of heavy-duty steps like # S-150 and # SASXLA-09C-G make them less than ideal for transport inside a rooftop cargo box like the Thule Force XT # TH6356B. Odds are if you are using a roof box you do not have space in the vehicle to store one of these steps. Handy as they are their best application is as an entry step for folks towing a large trailer such as a 5th wheel that has substantial cargo storage space built-in. But anyone using a rooftop...
view full answer... - Fit of SportRack Vista XL Roof Mount Cargo Box on 2011 Honda CRVThe SportRack Vista XL Roof Mounted Cargo Box attaches to the factory crossbars using the supplied U-bolts. The U-bolts will accommodate cross bars up to 3-3/4 inches in diameter. The factory crossbars will also need to be 25-7/8, 27-7/8, or 29-7/8 inches apart. I would not recommend using any other method of attachment than the U-bolts supplied by the manufacturer. You should also consult your owner's manual to determine the weight capacity of the roof rack on your CRV. You might also...
view full answer... - Rhino-Rack Wheel Step Compatibility With Dually TruckI reached out to my contact at Performance Tool and they confirmed the Folding Wheel Step - Tire Mount - 300 lbs, # PT68ZR will work with your 275R19.5 dually truck since the tire that you will use it on is less than 13 inches wide. It will only fit over the outside wheel, not both.
view full answer... - Is a Thule Stacker 2 Appropriate to Carry 4 Kayaks on a 2011 Ford Expedition with Factory Roof RackI agree that the Thule Stacker Rooftop Kayak carrier # TH830 would be the best option for carrying 4 kayaks on your 2011 Ford Expedition. Please note that this carrier is not recommended if the kayaks you intend to purchase are longer than 10 feet, and it is not intended for use with ocean style kayaks, which are much wider. I have confirmed with my technical contact at Thule and the Stacker 2 will work with factory cross bars that are up to 3 inches wide. Please note that the minimum...

Part # SR7018 will fit your GMC Yukon if the diameter of your crossbars are 3-3/4 inches or less, and if the spread between the 2 crossbars is 25-7/8, 27-7/8 or 29-7/8 inches. In addition to part # SR7018, you may also be interested in the Tire-Mount Wheel Step, part # PT68ZR, to make loading of items into your SportRack Vista XL Cargo Box easier. You...
view full answer... - Rhino-Rack Roof Rack, Basket, and Cargo Bag for 2011 Volkswagen Tiguan with Side RailsRoof rack manufacturers universal agree that you should not open the panoramic roof on your 2011 Volkswagen Tiguan with the crossbars installed. The issue is that the open roof could make contact with the bottoms of the bars and damage the roof and the bars. Also, the noise would likely be too much and you'd want it closed anyway. With that said on the Rhino-Rack roof rack bars # RRVA118B-2 and feet # RRSX022 the bottoms of the bars will be approximately 1 inch up from the tops of the...
view full answer... - Fit Of The Thule Force XT XXL Rooftop Cargo Box On 2013 GMC Acadia Factory Roof RackThe Thule Force XT XXL # TH6359B will fit most factory crossbars. It does require crossbars to be a maximum of 3-1/2 inches wide and maximum of 1-11/16 inches tall. The crossbar spread from center to center needs to be between 23-5/8 inch center to center and 37-1/2 inches. The clearance of your rear antenna depends on your roof rack itself. The Thule Force XXL will sit about flush with your factory crossbars so if your crossbars are higher than your antenna, you won't have an issue....

- Will Thule Sonic XXL Cargo Box Fit 2006 Nissan Pathfinder LE with Factory Roof RackI spoke with my contact at Thule and he said the discontinued Thule Sonic XXL Cargo Box is a confirmed fit for your 2006 Nissan Pathfinder LE with factory roof rack. However you will want to check the weight capacity of your Pathfinder's roof as well as the roof rack. In addition to the cargo box, I recommend picking up the Performance Tool Wheel Step, # PT68ZR. This will make loading and unloading your cargo carrier much easier. For install details and some product demonstration videos,...

You would have to carry the other bike on the roof of your vehicle if you choose to use a trunk mounted bike rack. The item you selected, Thule Passage 3 Bike Carrier, part # TH911XT, is compatible with your vehicle and would be a good option as it features anti-sway cradles. Another 3 bike trunk mounted bike rack I would recommend is...

This measurement should not be an issue. The width of the step arm my be a issue for 2015 Subaru Crosstrek. The clearance between your tire and wheel well will need to be checked to see if the HitchMate will fit. The tubes on the step measures 22 inches wide. The tubes will have to fit around your tire and clear the wheel of your car for the step to be used on your Subaru. You will need to measure the width...

- Recommended Trike Rack for a 2019 Lincoln MKCI have a great option for you to transport your JC26X tadpole-style recumbent trike, but I do not recommend using the Softride Hang2 2-Bike Rack for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches # SR27041. Setting aside the potential issue of ground clearance hitch height with your hitch, the Softride Hang2 requires front handlebars to mount to the clamps at the top. Since we have not fitted a recumbent-style bike on the clamps there is no way to confirm whether the clamps will adequately secure at any point of...

- Cargo Box Recommendation for a 2011 Chevrolet Equinox with Factory Roof RackYes, either of the Boxes you have mentioned will fit on the factory Cross bars on your 2011 Chevrolet Equinox, with not additional hardware required. I would recommend going with the Thule Pulse Large Roof Box, # TH614, because the claw style mounting hardware makes installation and removal of the box much easier. For your Equinox you may want to consider the Folding Tire Wheel Step, # PT68ZR, to make installation, removal and loading of the cargo box much easier.

It is large, and has an included fairing that makes it aerodynamic. The Thule model will fit crossbars that are between 20 inches and 37 inches apart. There is an extension available for the rack should the space be required. For the Thule Roof Mounted Cargo Basket Extension, item # TH8591XT, will extend the carrier 20 inches. I would also recommend the Wheel Step - Tire Mount, item # PT68ZR, with either of these...

If your vehicle does not have factory cross bars you will need to install them. The Yakima Roof Rack for 2003 Nissan Xterra, item # Y00408, # Y03536, and # Y33TR would complete the roof rack for attachment of either of the above mentioned cargo boxes. You may want to consider the Tire Wheel Step item # PT68ZR, which is...

If your front crossbar can be moved, move it forward as far as it can go. Then measure from the center of the front crossbar rearward to the seam that separates the roof and the hatch. For the hatch to be able to open all the way with the SkyBox NX 16, that distance has to be 47-inches or more. The SkyBox NX 16 is a really nice cargo box that can be opened from...

The box will mount on cross bars that are between 24 and 34 inches apart. So you will need to do some measuring to determine if your roof mounted antenna can be retained while using the cargo box. Install the first cross bar as far forward on the vehicle roof as possible. Then measure from the center of the cross bar back to the antenna on the vehicle. ...
