If you're having problems installing s bolts on your passenger side center bracket. You can cut the 2 bolts to an L shape take the leftover pieces and weld onto the other side to make a T shape. Build weld on top. Grind and cut down to slide in slot. Turn 90deg. Posting rough picture

Does anyone know if the running boards are compatible with the hybrid? They are only listed for the eb.

Thank you. I'm thinking they would make it easier for my kids to get in. Do you like them?

Just had a bedliner sprayed in and the they asked me if I was interested in any other products .I said ,"Yes running boards .''The tech said they install running boards but not on the Maverick because it is Unibody construction and there are no solid attachment points so after a while of use ,they would rip out. I trust them .Why would they turn down a profitable sale?

They’re an accessory for the Maverick in Brazil. https://fordauthority.com/2022/06/2022-ford-maverick-gets-new-accessories-in-brazil/

What a waste of money the truck is low so I don't get why you want to throw away your money!
There's many more extras available for your truck that have purpose 🤔

I understand what your saying. In my case I have a 6 and 8 year old and they have to kneel on the sill to get in. Only a problem for a couple years, but a nice convenience.

I was going to have them installed just to give it the low rider look and prevent people from banging my doors but was told by a professional ,because the Maverick is unibody there are no secure points to bolt on .If they were used to step on ,they would rip out soon.
