What USA-Made Running Boards Fit My 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee?

Question:

I’m more than willing to pay more for an American made product. Can you clarify where this product is manufactured?

I can definitely clarify the origin of production for the AeroTread Running Boards w/ Custom Installation Kit - 5" Wide - Aluminum - Black Stainless # AA2061009. Those boards are made in China.

However, if you are looking for a great American-made set, I recommend the DeeZee NXc Running Boards w Custom Installation Kit - 5" Wide - Aluminum - Black Powder Coat # DZ16201-16241. The DeeZee NXc come with a similar style as the AeroTreads. The NXc also comes with the same 5-inch width footing plate. As far as fitment, the NXc mounts super close to your vehicle so there is no large gap between your 2012 Jeep Cherokee and the boards themselves. It comes with all custom mounting hardware included. We also sell thge NXc model that has the stainless steel top plate. That is part # DZ16203-16241.

It is important to note that both the NXc models are not compatible with your 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee if your vehicle has the extra plastic rocker panel body molding or skirt cladding.
