Hi, this is Scott with etrailer. Today we're taking a look at and installing the Romik REC-TB Running Boards on our 2026 Ford Bronco. So we had our neighbor's Bronco in, getting it all set up for a flat tow, and so we got the experience our Bronco with and without our running boards on here. And I can tell you that it's definitely a lot easier to get in and out with our running boards installed. Another nice thing about having these running boards on here is they're also gonna provide a little bit of protection from any kind of rocks and debris that fly up and make them up and chip your paint. So that's a nice feature with these as well. They're gonna have some really heavy duty brackets. There's gonna be no drill brackets so you're not gonna have to drill into the body of your Bronco to get these installed. These are gonna go on with preexisting attachment points that are underneath of your vehicle. These running boards are gonna be kind of what I would call the middle of the road style of running board. And what these are gonna be is functional but still look good, where some of your fancier ones are kind of there for looks and really not a lot of function. But these do both. Let's go ahead and hop on in and give 'em a try. As you can see, they work out really nice. I have plenty of foot there. Now we did set these in a little bit more. You can get these to slide out a little bit, just a little bit more to give you a little more foot room. But these are gonna have five and a half inches of foot space where you can put your foot, and they're gonna be have a maximum capacity of 300 pounds. And getting out it makes it a whole lot easier as well. Gives you a little something to put your foot on. It's really an anti-slip running board, so that's nice as well. A nice thing about having running boards on your Bronco as well, it's gonna help the kids get in and out. If you have kids, it makes it a whole lot easier for them to step in and out. Now if you have any questions or comments about these running boards for your Bronco, you can always leave a question or comment down below in the comment section, or you can go ahead and get ahold of one of our experts here at etrailer. They'd be glad to help you out. Now as far as installation goes, these are pretty straightforward and really isn't too hard to do. It's definitely something you could handle yourself. But if you don't have the time or the tools that are place to do it, you can always take a look at our dealer locator and get something done for you locally. If it's something you feel like tackling yourself, stick around, watch our video, and we'll gonna help you get it installed. So start our installation, one of the first things I like to do is get everything out of the package and take a look at my parts list and get everything laid out where it's gonna go. It's gonna be labeled to tell you which side is which and which bracket is where. Just hold up your bracket and match it up against your instructions, and that way you can get 'em in the correct locations. And I like to just get everything laid out, kind of where it's gonna go on the vehicle. That way I know I have everything that I need to get started on installing. Now with that, when we're putting these together, we're not gonna be using any power tools or anything like that. We wanna make sure we're just using hand tools to get these installed. But what I want to do is make sure I have blue Loctite on all of my hardware before I start putting my brackets in place. And I'm gonna start with my front here on the driver's side. And I'm just gonna run these in finger tight because we're gonna want to be able to move them around and adjust these. So I'm just gonna run 'em up quite a ways finger tight, but still leave enough room for them to move around. Now we're gonna have two in the front. We're gonna have this one back here. I'm gonna have one right over here as well. I'll get those in place. Now you may have to push your bracket up against your harness and maybe move your harness up and down a little bit just to get that to fit. But you just want to get your bolts started. And again, we're not gonna crank this down. We're gonna leave these a little bit loose so we have some wiggle room to move them around.
