Nerf Bars or Step for 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 Quad Cab With Larger Weight Limit
Question:
My question is, What are the weight limits on your Nerf bars? I have an uncle that I give rides to and from work and he is a VERY LARGE MAN! He stands around 6'10 - 6'11 and weighs around 400 lbs. and has already bent 2 TWO sets of nerf bars! LOL. I like the look of the Nerf bars so I was wondering if you had an industrial set for him to test the strength of LOL... Thanks in advance for your help! And I completely understand if you do not have anything.

We actually do have something that can help your somewhat larger uncle (please don't tell him I said that as I don't want a 7 foot, 400 lb man coming after me!) get on your 2001 Dodge Ram quad cab, though the nerf bars you referenced don't have that kind of weight capacity.
What you can do is add something a bit different, the Carr Custom-Fit Side Step, which are both cool-looking and have a 500 lb weight capacity. The step platforms are large at 17" long x 5" wide and have a 6" drop; they also come in different colors:
- Carr Custom-Fit Side Steps - Super Hoop - Polished Aluminum # CARR124032
- Carr Custom-Fit Side Steps - Super Hoop - Black Powder Coated Aluminum # CARR124031
