Running board traction clips or screws?

[kanedog]

Which do you prefer for aftermarket running boards?

I’m old school and have never slipped on the screws. I am hesitant to put the plastic traction clip thingies. Help guide me through this dilemma. Thx

CR boards, no added traction thingy's required

I love my CR boards and the tunnels... but fawk me they are wide! Wish I could have opted for a narrow option lol! All and all, great product though.

but for you KD, I say send some screws into the bish as it seems you are already rigged up and don’t look back. K.I.S.S

When I had Skinz Running boards they were amazing and never collected snow until I installed those plastic traction clips. They would form little balls of snow. If I did it all over again I would stick to screws. Better grip and now snow buildup. Sure they are hard on gear but IMO worth it.

My BDX boards have traction cast into them.

Clips look great and are ok at first but once they start collecting snow and ice your screwed and will end up removing them and installing screws

I made these, UHMW, 6/32 nylock nuts for traction, also to hold the UHMW on !



Traction really good !
Also don't wear the boots !
Holey crap I checked the prices, mine cost about $12 for screws and some scrap plastic?
