Just installed my RB10's last night and I have a question on their fit. The clearance of the top of the board at the front is real tight to the rocker and there is a larger gap or clearance to the rocker at the rear of the board. It gives the perception that the board is tipped down at the rear. Not sure how I can adjust for this? Any one that is running these boards, do yours fit like this? G.B.

I have the RB20s which mount the exact same way. I had a similar issue when first installed. You can adjust the brackets where they mount to the frame and where they mount to the board. You have to have the right adjustment everywhere to align them perfectly. If yours is lower in the back, crawl under your truck and note if the rear bracket is pushed all the way up before you tighten. That’s what did it for me.

Thanks! I think the only adjustment I will get will be with the front bracket? The middle and rear brackets upper mounting tab is vertical and the lower one is on an angled. I will play with it tomorrow. thx G.B.

You might ask @joeb427 about that. He has the same running boards

Thanks guys for your feedback. I was playing with them today. I had originally pushed the front brackets all the way in or up. So today i pulled them down and it dropped the front of the boards maybe a 1/4". They still are tipped in the rear but a little less.. I think the next thing I am going to try is adding washers between the upper, middle and rear, bracket mounting tabs and the body. This should allow me to raise the those two brackets to try and level out the boards.. You need washers between the brackets and the body as the lower tab is on an angle. When you push those brackets in and up, it will pull the upper vertical tab away from the body. The washers will act as a spacers and allow me to tighten the bolts and brackets correctly. I will take some pictures when I get around to doing this. It might not be for a couple weeks though. G.B.
