Default Running Board help

I’m at a loss. I can’t find these boards anywhere. Lost an end cap to snow this winter and trying to find the manufacturer to replace it. Didn’t know if anyone else ran them stock and had a part number, but I ran out of google searches and exhausted all my dealer options. Part number returns nothing and I can’t figure out if the name is Kurtz or Kyats. I’ll keep searching the forum, but if anyone wants to join in on the mystery be my guest.

OP, that sticker is from the metal plater in Canada that plated your running boards for the manufacturer. That companies name is Kuntz. My Google skills are strong tonight...

Contact them....maybe they will accept a picture of the running board and tell you who makes it.

Here is a pic of their website with the contact info.
Alternatively, go to www.Kuntz.com

LoL...I thought the same thing!
Hopefully, they use one of the long sounds for 'U' in their name....



The basic sounds of the English letter “U” are: Long-U-1, Long-U-2, and Short-u.

Long-U-1

The sound of Long-U-1 is the same as the name of the letter “U”. However, this long-vowel sound is a little bit unusual because Long-vowels usually have two parts, but Long-U-1 has three parts (in IPA: /yuw/). Some common words with this sound are: use / music / huge / cute / unite / cure / menu / fuel / human / argue.

Long-U-2

The second Long-U sound is almost the same as Long-U-1, except that it has only two parts (in IPA: /uw/). Some words with this sound are: true / flute / blue / June / spruce / tune / rule / tube / duty / include.

Short-u

Short-u is pronounced in the center (not front, not back) middle (not high, not low) part of the mouth, and the tongue needs to be relaxed. Some common words with this sound are: up / just / but / much / under / us / run / study / number / because.

Yeah, not googling that on my company computer. Good luck!

If they're round just buy a Cap Plug for 5 bucks and call it a day.

You can find some pretty sweet scratch and dent deals on running boards at American Trucks too if you'd rather just get something else.
Stock take off boards are usually cheap and easy to find on CL if you're near a big city.
