Trailer Valet will officially state that the # TVXL2 should only be used on concrete/asphalt and not on gravel or dirt applications since like you have found out the traction just isn't good enough and the wheel will spin.
So while there isn't an exact method we can recommend I would try what you mentioned. I think the board solution would be the easiest and most effective so I would start there. The wood would provide much better traction than dirt. Also in the event there's rain the... view full answer...
The only running board options we currently offer for a 2021 Honda Pilot are from Aries and DeeZee, the AeroTread Running Boards part # AA2061029 are what I recommend. They feature a bolt-on install with sleek black finish. The 5" wide step offers plenty of grip and traction for easy in and out. They are made of aluminum so they won't rust. view full answer...
The best step solution for your 2024 Ram 2500 Mega Cab is the Aries RidgeStep Running Boards w/ Custom Installation Kit # AA2055536.
I really like this setup because it's a custom fit so no drilling into your truck, plus this is a solid running boards with treads on the surface that do a fantastic job at providing traction as well as helps to drain some of the water and debris that will accumulate on them.
I've attached a review video for you to reference! view full answer...
For your 2024 Ram ProMaster 2500 I recommend the Aries RidgeStep Running Boards w/ Custom Installation Kit # AA2055539. These have a 6-1/2" wide step with stamped steel tread for traction. They also have a textured black powder coat finish which gives it a non-slip surface. The RideStep has a bolt-on installation so no drilling is required. view full answer...
There is a really nice option for a wide running board that fits your 2022 Chevy Silverado 3500 Crew Cab, which is from Aries:
- Aries RidgeStep Running Boards # AA76ZB
The RidgeStep # AA76ZB are 6-1/2 inches wide, which is amount the widest possible running boards for your '22 Silverado. The only wider is the 7 inch wide DeeZee Rough Step Running Boards # DZ15321A-15340, but I do recommend going with the Aries running boards.
That 1/2 inch can't make up for the strength of the Aries... view full answer...
The DeeZee NXc Running Boards part # DZ16201-16241 for black or part # DZ16202-16241 for chrome is an excellent option for a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland. In fact, they are the only USA options we have for this vehicle. The DeeZee NXc Running Boards have a nice and tight fit under the rocker panel so you don't have to worry about them reducing ground clearance and they have a nice wide base for traction. view full answer...
Both vehicle running boards and their corresponding mounting hardware are vehicle specific. This means that even if you have the correct mounting hardware for your 2001 Ford F-150, running boards that are designed to fit a different vehicle will not be compatible with the truck.
For Westin E-Series Running Boards that are confirmed to fit your F-150, I recommend the Westin # 23-1885, which will include the necessary hardware. These 3 inch diameter bars will sit in recessed areas of the... view full answer...
Yes, we do have some all black wheel-to-wheel running boards for a 2024 Ram 3500 Crew Cab SRW 8' bed. We have the Westin HDX Nerf Bars # WE87FR and the Westin PRO TRAXX # WE99FR.
The PRO TRAXX # WE99FR are your standard 5" tube running boards. They have a glass black finish and each bar has 3 polymer plastic step pads.
The Westin HDX Nerf Bars # WE87FR are the other option and my favorite of the two. These have a drop-step design which creates a more seamless look with the body of the... view full answer...
The Westin Tube Steps part # 27-6125-1835 that you referenced have been confirmed to fit your 2011 Chevy Traverse and come with all of the needed install hardware.
The difference between the part # 27-6120 and the part # 27-6125 is the color. The # 27-6125 is all black and the # 27-6120 has silver trim. You should note that both of these do not have the install kits that come with them. That is why the part numbers are shorter than the first one I referenced. With either of these two part... view full answer...
If you are just looking for side steps (and not running boards) for your 2011 Ford Ranger 2-Door XL SuperCab I recommend taking a look at either the Carr LD # CARR114992 for a rugged square-edged design or # CARR124992 for a sleeker hoop-style appearance.
Both options are confirmed to fit your truck and feature a silver corrosion-resistant aluminum construction. We do not have any actual chrome plated models available for your Ford Ranger so this will be your best option.

The top channels of the Rhino Rack Vortex crossbars are essentially the same dimensions as the Thule and Yakima crossbars and all other standard crossbars so nearly all roof rack accessories that are designed to fit the top channels of crossbars are going to work great.
Rhino Rack has a recovery track carrier with part number # RR432235 but this is designed to attach to the top of one of their Pioneer Platforms like # RR42114BF. view full answer...
I checked with Westin and the Westin HDX Nerf Bars with Drop Steps # 56-137152 are a confirmed fit for your 2018 GMC Sierra 2500HD diesel. They have no fit exclusions for models that have the DEF tank as well.
These are a really great option that I would recommend highly for you. They look great, are easy to use when getting in and out of the truck and will last you a long time. The step tread design will provide great traction as well in wet and dry conditions. view full answer...
For your tire size of 285/45-22 on your 2016 GMC Yukon XL the most protective tire chains setup will be the Titan chains part # TC2327 which provide great traction and are also easy to install as well. If you check out the picture I attached you can see that the chains really only contact the tire and won't come near enough to the rim to cause an issue.
I attached an install video for the chains for you to check out as well. view full answer...
Using a Trailer Valet product such as # STC-V211, # TVXL25, or # TVXL2 are all great options for what you want to do. The crank handles make light work of manually moving a trailer around and the dual tires provide traction. I have linked some videos for you to check out. A dolly such as # RA20 is not a good option because it is rated for 600 pounds total weight. Unless the trailer weighs under 600 pounds you would be overloading this type of dolly.
Another option, depending on the construction... view full answer...
