If you think the side running boards weigh down the look of your Dodge RAM 1500 (and you are tall enough to step over your vehicle and do without them), this video will show you how to remove them. You don’t even need to lift the vehicle, as it is high enough for an agile person to get underneath without too much difficulty.

The running boards are secured to the body with just three screws. It might be a good idea to spray some WD-40 on them before removing, but they will come off without too much hassle.

Get someone to help you when you are loosening the bolts, or you might end up under the running board, which is not too light. Proceed in the same way on the other side.

Job done.
