Step bar compatibility
I have a 2008 f150 super crew 2wd. I'm looking at purchasing a set of nfab step bars from a member of the forum. They are mounted on a 2013 super crew 2wd, both 5.5 ft bed. My question is will the steps from the newer truck mount to my 2008? I have factory ford steps currently. I thought I read before they will but I can't find where I seen it... any help would be great!

I think Summers has some form a 13 or something like that on his. If I remember correctly he said all that was required was to move one of the mounts to a different location on the nerf bar by drilling some new holes but as far as mounting it to the frame the mount is the same.

Ahh sorry I missed that part. If the factory ones needed to have one of the mounts moved to mount on the frame them I would guess you would need to do the same on those but I don't think you can move the mounts without grinding and welding. Cant tell you too much else though.
