The mounting hardware for running boards are specific to both the running boards and the truck. We are not going to have alternate mounting brackets that will work to lower your factory running boards because of this and likely the only way to lower the factory running boards would be to fabricate something.

The best option that we would have would be a complete new set that already sits lower, like the Westin R7 Nerf Bars # 28-71275.
