I am wondering if any of the eliminators, not being brand specific, take care of the snow that ends up in the foot wells? The snow that always gets built up in the front of the boards.

Yep, been using Sno Eliminators on our RMK's for a couple of years now, they work extremely well. Oops, just reread your post, you still get snow up in the wells--just have to kick it out now and then

Do you set them all the way to the front of the foot wells or hold them back till they fit tight in the running boards. sorry just reread yours. is there a better way? or would it make things to weak?

The sheet metal thickness on the Better boards are at least twice as thick on my 2004 RMK and more than tice as thick on the 2005 tunnel.

The better boards go up to the multiple layers of sheet by the ffotwell to the multiple sheet laters where the idler wheels go.

So because they are thicker and bent at a aropund a 90degree angle they will greatly increase the "stuffness" of the foot platform.


Pre boards the foot platforms flexed alot ... now with boards little if any.

f-bombs better boards have holes within a couple inches of the very front, on my 08 rmk anyway.
