They swing out and drop when a door opens, then tuck back under the sill when it shuts. VIKOR warrant them for 12 months. The reason people fit them is height: an F-150 on stock suspension is already a long step up, and a lift makes it worse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat vehicles does this fit?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMake\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVariant\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBody\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eYears\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFit\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFord\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eF-150 (facelift)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAll variants\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCrew Cab\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2024.5+\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDirect fit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFord\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eF-150 (pre-facelift)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e-\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAll cab styles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2021-2024\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDoes not fit - VIKOR make a separate set (VESSF150-21)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide steps are cab-length specific and this part number is the facelift fitment.

Electric steps only exist in that space while a door is open. On a lifted F-150 you get the low step-up without carrying a permanent obstacle down each side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I install them myself?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe brackets are a bolt-on job, but the steps also need a power feed and a trigger tapped off the door circuit. That part is best done by an auto electrician or an installer who works on these regularly. Fitting is not included in the price.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat warranty do they carry?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVIKOR warrant them for 12 months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill they fit a 2021-2024 F-150?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. VIKOR make a separate set for the earlier truck under part number VESSF150-21. The changeover landed part way through 2024, which is why it is written as MY2024.5 rather than a clean model year. Send us the build date off the compliance plate and we will match the steps to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill they fit a Regular Cab or Super Cab?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVIKOR list this set for the crew cab, which is the body the F-150 is sold new in here.
