Hi Guys,
Has anyone installed side steps, MOPAR ones or otherwise? Any cons? I'm kinda short so it would help and my old man. Not sure how it would look. Appreciate any pics..

Yes, I have them for the women-folk and grandkids getting in and out of our lifted DD. They look good though I have a harder time getting in now because I don't use the steps and have to climb in around them. They look good as in the pics but I never took pics of mine. I bought a used set and my mistake was in not chasing the threads of the bolts before I tried to install it. You need the car up on ramps for good access and then you will cut holes in some of the covered holes under the edge of the car. It's a good project to do at home and even easier with new bolts if you buy a new set. I bought used because it was impossible to find new black ones to match our car. Chrome wasn't going to do it for us. They are about $700 new and our used ones with a dent in the front of the passenger side and faded paint were $199 on fleabay.

Search the site for running boards and you'll find that others have installed various other kits from fleabay and Amazon that new are about $200.

I installed a set of DeeZee NXC running boards on my 2014 Limited. I had been looking around for a while, and really liked the style of these. They have custom mounting hardware specific for your application, and require no drilling, they make use of existing holes in the underbody structure.

GF ordered them for me from Amazon - she's a little shorty herself, and they make a big difference in getting in and out of the Durango. They were fairly easy to install, I only cussed a couple of times!

I did a complete right up on the DeeZee.

I checked MOPAR, ARIES, and DEEZEE. None will fit the 2023 DDR/T Plus. Anyone know why? Thanks!

 

[JC Hemi]

DeeZee fits. I have them on my 2023 R/T Plus Blacktop.

They will all fit. They just haven't either tested them on a '23 or they haven't updated their list. The SRT and HC may be the only ones they don't fit due to whatever side facia change exists on those models.

These are the Mopar side steps I have on my '15 RT.

Nice to finally see a photo of your DD. It's the color we really wanted but we found we truly love the black with red interior that we got.

I had the DeeZee for a while, and pulled them off once the Durango was no longer the primary family hauler. They're good for short people and kids, but if you're tall they just make your pants wet/dirty because they're too high to actually use, and stick out too far to easily clear when getting in/out. I'm much happier without them.

thanks everyone for your responses, I've been sick and havent been to check. Lot's of good examples
