Just installed running boards on my R1T and was wondering if anyone had an issue with the bracket fit? The rear 2 brackets on each side would overlap with existing bolts / plates. No big deal and a little grinding fixed. Could it be caused by individual variations on each vehicle? If folks are cutting holes to keep the plastic covers, do you see this issue?

I took some picts before removing and fixing (grinding down the end by about 1/4").

I just tried to install today and I ran into the same issue. Rear 2 brackets on the passenger side are a no go. Was thinking of grinding it down as well but emailed support first to get guidance.

For those of you with overlapping issue. What build date are your Rivians?

Just had my RB's installed this morning in Van Nuys! Thanks for the great product and excellent service team 1EV/Tsportline!
Now should I tackle the yellow welting mod?

Installed my running board last week, wife loves it easy to get in and out and kneel mode not required. It doesn't protrude as i thought it would, its flush and looks great, here are some picks.

installation: 3hrs
Looks awesome, thanks for sharing - Nice Tesla too!

We have revised that bracket accounting for Rivian build variance - happy to ship you a replacement ASAP if needed! Just PM @BrookeRRiv to handle it. In the mean time, it can be ground down to clear.

I like the rock sliders. I love the precision fixture table.

5/22/23. What’s weird is I got an email saying it’s shipped with a tracking number, but the Shop app still shows “Order Placed”.

We placed our order for the R1T running boards on May 17th. We received them on June 12th. We have unpacked the boxes. All parts are there, and they arrived in perfect condition. They are very well packed. We have begun the assembly and installation process. There are no instructions in the box. We downloaded the instructions and templates from the 1EV Website.
