Installed Wolfbox Power Running Board

[aaronkneeland]

Agree on being over zealous. One thing to be aware of with their steps, the wiring harness has a connector for override switch but they don’t offer it yet, to be released at the end of the year. My doors are off and they ship the motors retracted so it’s impossible to install them without putting the doors back on. I was trying to jump the connector for the override but they either didn’t program the controller yet to understand the bypass or it’s more complicated than closing a circuit. Also, the steps are on sale for $899 right now.

Thanks for your interests, dear friends. We're preparing to list the manual switch. You can control the running boards no matter the doors are off or changed to tube doors.

I was told December unless that has changed.

My wolf box power steps just arrived and I’m having the hardest time getting the very first front driver’s side arm to line up with the pinch welds. Is there an installation video anywhere?

edit: bonehead move to start off the install. I took the factory running boards off a month or so ago and reinstalled all the bolts in their factory locations. These bolts were in the way of me seating the brackets correctly.

We have install guide for F150, but the install steps are pretty similar. Link here.
Please read the user's manual before you install.

What's the deal with the gap at then front wheels? Were they installed incorrectly?

 

[aaronkneeland]

Yes I agree I hate the gap. I created a ticket with Wolfbox to see if they would fix it since these are a newer product for them and I thought if they fixed the coverage issue and the step angle issue then they would offer one of the nicest power steps but they basically told me they don’t have any other length boards than can be swapped in and cannot change the board angle unless I Jimmy shim the bracket to the motor. I am trying to find a solution for the gap so it matches the rear

Was gonna say, I'd rather have that gap there for my mud flaps! I honestly don't think the gap looks bad at all. Maybe I have bad taste. Would love to get a pair of these boards, wish I could afford them is all.

 

[aaronkneeland]

If mud flaps would cover this gap I would probably install them. The ones I looked at didn’t mount this far back.

That looks stupid
