Easier Entry and Exit
The FJ Cruiser's relatively high step-in height can make entering and exiting the vehicle inconvenient, particularly for shorter passengers or owners who have installed a suspension lift or larger tires.
Westin Premier 4" Oval Nerf Bars provide an intermediate stepping surface along both sides of the vehicle.
They're especially useful for:
-
Daily driving and commuting
-
Helping passengers get in and out
-
Entering lifted FJ Cruisers
-
Loading dogs and other passengers
-
Reaching into the vehicle to organize cargo
-
Accessing items through the side doors
Wide 4-Inch Oval Design
Unlike narrow round-tube nerf bars, the Premier series uses a 4-inch oval profile to create a more substantial step.
The oval tubing provides a clean appearance that complements the FJ Cruiser's body lines while positioning the step pads where passengers can use them.
Westin's cradle-mounted design supports the tubes through the dedicated mounting system.
UV-Resistant Step Pads
Each nerf bar incorporates molded polymer step pads designed to provide a more secure foothold than a smooth metal tube.
The pads are UV-resistant to help withstand prolonged exposure to sunlight and normal outdoor conditions.
Their saddle-mounted design also gives the steps a finished, integrated appearance.
Durable Black Powder-Coated Steel
The Westin Premier 4" Oval Nerf Bars are constructed from steel with an E-coating and black powder-coated exterior finish.
This combination helps protect the bars from corrosion and everyday exposure while complementing the FJ Cruiser's black exterior trim.
Molded oval end caps finish the ends of the tubes for a clean appearance.
Bolt-On Installation
The Westin Premier nerf bars install using a vehicle-specific mounting kit.
For the 2007-2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser, the required mounting kit is Westin #22-1615.
The mounting system is designed for bolt-on installation without drilling in this application.
Important: The mounting kit is not included with part #22-5065 and must be purchased separately.
Nerf Bars vs. Rock Sliders
These Westin Premier nerf bars are designed primarily as entry steps and exterior accessories.
Although they can help shield the rocker-panel area from incidental contact, they should not be confused with dedicated off-road rock sliders.
For FJ Cruiser owners who regularly encounter rocks, ledges, and other obstacles, purpose-built rock sliders are the more appropriate choice.
The Westin Premier nerf bars are best suited to owners who prioritize passenger access, daily convenience, and appearance.
