Westin Automotive

40+ Years of Truck and Van Accessories Built to Last

Westin Automotive started with a simple mission in the early 1980s: build truck accessories that combine real function with a look that doesn't compromise the vehicle. Over four decades later, Westin designs, engineers, and tests every product at their facility in San Dimas, California — and the catalog has grown from step bars and nerf bars into one of the most comprehensive truck and van accessory lineups in the aftermarket, covering protection, storage, lighting, bed management, and entry access all under one brand.

Westin is a chosen manufacturer for US government and military applications — a supply relationship that reflects the durability standard the brand holds itself to across the entire product line. For contractors and fleet managers, that means buying from a brand that has proven its products in demanding government and commercial applications, not just consumer truck builds.

At Upfit Supply, we carry Westin across 14 product categories — truck and van steps and running boards, headache racks, truck racks, lighting, the full Brute tool box lineup, grille guards, bull bars, bed covers, and bed liners. If you're building out a complete truck or van package and want to run a single brand across multiple categories, Westin covers more ground than almost any other option in the market.

Westin Truck Steps & Running Boards

Running boards and step bars are Westin's most recognized product category — the line that built the brand's reputation over four decades and remains the widest-selling category in the Westin catalog today. Westin truck steps and running boards are available in a range of series to match different truck profiles, driver preferences, and commercial requirements:

• E-Series Step Bars — the entry-level workhorse; 3" oval tube step bars in black or chrome, available for virtually every major truck platform. Clean, functional, and priced for fleet applications where per-unit cost matters.
• PRO TRAXX Step Bars — 4", 5", and 6" oval step bars in black powder coat and chrome finishes; the most popular step bar series in the Westin lineup for contractors who want a clean, durable step without a full running board footprint.
• HDX Drop Steps — a drop-down step design that positions the step lower than the rocker panel for easier entry and exit on lifted trucks and high-clearance work trucks; available in textured black and stainless steel.
• R5 and R7 Running Boards — full-length aluminum running boards with a flat, non-skid step surface; the right choice when maximum step width and a flush, OEM-style appearance are the priority.
• HDX Xtreme Step Bars — heavy-duty step bars with an aggressive profile, available in textured black for trucks where durability and a blacked-out appearance are the priority.

All Westin truck steps and running boards are vehicle-specific — use the year/make/model filter to confirm fitment for your truck.

Westin Headache Racks

Westin headache racks mount at the front of the truck bed to protect the rear cab glass from shifting loads — pipe, conduit, lumber, or any long material that could slide forward under hard braking. Westin's HD Series and HDX headache racks are built from heavy-gauge steel with a black powder coat finish, and are available in configurations that accommodate integrated lighting, tool box brackets, and other accessories for a fully customized rear cab protection setup.

For contractors who regularly haul long material in the bed, a headache rack is one of the highest-impact protection investments on the truck — and Westin's headache rack lineup gives fleet operators a proven, consistently available option across most major truck platforms.

Westin HD Overhead Truck Racks

Westin HD Overhead Truck Racks mount above the truck bed to carry ladders, lumber, pipe, conduit, and other long or oversized material that won't fit cleanly in the bed itself. The overhead rack configuration frees up the entire truck bed floor for tools, equipment, and cargo while keeping long material secured overhead and accessible at the rear of the truck.

Westin overhead racks feature bolt-on mounting to the truck bed rails, powder-coated steel construction, integrated D-rings for tie-down points, and adjustable hold-down clamps for securing different load profiles. Available for most full-size pickup truck platforms.

Westin Van Running Boards & Steps

Westin's van step lineup brings the same durability and vehicle-specific fitment of their truck running board range to cargo vans. Westin van running boards and steps are available for the Mercedes Sprinter and other major cargo van platforms — giving contractors and fleet operators a secure, durable step-up solution that holds up to daily commercial use without the flex, rattle, or premature wear of lower-grade alternatives.

Westin LED Lighting

Westin LED lighting covers the full range of work truck and fleet lighting needs — from compact flush-mount utility lights for service trucks to full-length double-row light bars for high-visibility applications. The Westin lighting lineup includes:

• EF LED Work Utility Lights — compact, rugged work lights for service trucks and vans; mount to the grille guard, headache rack, or roof for directed task lighting at the jobsite
• EF2 Low Profile Double Row Light Bars — slim, dual-row LED light bars for wide-area illumination; low-profile design for clean mounting on bumpers and grille guards
• FM4Q and FM6 Flush Mount Lights — flush-mount LED pods that integrate cleanly into grille guards, bumpers, and headache racks without exposed mounting hardware
• Fusion5 Flex Beam LED Light Bars — flexible beam pattern light bars for applications requiring adjustable lighting coverage

Westin Brute Tool Boxes

The Westin Brute series covers the full spectrum of truck tool box configurations — all built from diamond tread aluminum with secure locking hardware and available in multiple sizes to fit standard and long bed trucks. Upfit Supply carries the complete Brute storage lineup:

• Brute Crossover Boxes — saddle-style boxes that span the full bed width; the most popular Brute configuration for contractors who need accessible, weather-resistant storage across the full width of the bed
• Brute Top Mount / Topsider Boxes — high-capacity chest-style boxes for maximum interior volume; Brute High Capacity Topsider boxes are a standout for contractors who need to store a large, varied tool set in the bed
• Brute HD Underbody Boxes — under-bed storage for service body and flatbed trucks; side-access design keeps tools organized and accessible without using bed deck space
• Brute Trailer Tongue Boxes — A-frame mount boxes for utility and equipment trailers; dedicated towing gear storage at the front of the trailer where it belongs

Westin HDX Grille Guards

Westin HDX Grille Guards are frame-mounted, fully welded steel guards that cover the entire front end of the truck — protecting the radiator, headlights, and front clip from impacts that would otherwise mean costly repairs. Available in standard, winch mount, and modular configurations, the HDX Series is Westin's flagship grille guard for heavy-duty commercial and fleet applications. The Sportsman Series offers a more streamlined profile for contractors who want front-end protection with a cleaner, less aggressive appearance.

All Westin grille guards are vehicle-specific — engineered to mount to the frame of a specific year, make, and model truck. Use the year/make/model filter to confirm the correct guard for your truck.

Westin Truck Bull Bars

Westin truck bull bars provide front-end protection with a lower profile and lighter weight than a full grille guard — bolt-on mounting, no frame modification required, and available in a wide range of finishes and tube diameters. The Westin bull bar lineup includes:

• E-Series Bull Bars — the entry-level option; clean, functional front-end protection in chrome and black at a competitive price point for fleet applications
• Contour 3.5" Bull Bars — mid-range bull bar with a contoured design that follows the truck's body lines more closely than straight-tube designs
• MAX Bull Bars — heavy-duty bull bar with an integrated light bar mount; for contractors who want front-end protection and a lighting solution in a single bolt-on unit
• Ultimate Bull Bars — Westin's premium bull bar; full-width steel construction with a winch-compatible option for trucks that need towing and recovery capability alongside front-end protection

Westin Bed Covers

Westin bed covers are available in hard roll-up and hard tri-fold tonneau configurations — both providing a weather-sealed, lockable cover that protects tools and cargo in the truck bed from rain, UV exposure, and theft. Low-profile design keeps the truck's appearance clean and delivers measurable fuel efficiency improvement by reducing aerodynamic drag at highway speeds. Vehicle-specific fitment for most major truck platforms.

Westin Bed Liners

Westin bed mats and cargo liners protect the truck bed floor from dents, scratches, and shifting loads. Custom-fit to specific truck bed dimensions, Westin bed liners provide a non-skid surface that keeps cargo in place during transit and protects the factory bed finish from the constant abrasion of daily loading and unloading. A practical first layer of protection for any work truck, particularly when the bed is seeing heavy tool or equipment loads daily.

Westin Automotive FAQs

Where is Westin Automotive made?

Westin Automotive designs, engineers, and tests all products at their facility in San Dimas, California, and has done so for over 40 years. Westin is a chosen manufacturer for US government and military applications — a supply relationship that reflects the durability standard the brand applies across its commercial and consumer product lines.

What is the Westin Brute tool box series?

The Westin Brute series is Westin's complete truck tool box lineup — crossover boxes, top mount and chest boxes, side mount boxes, underbody boxes, and trailer tongue boxes, all built from diamond tread aluminum with secure locking hardware. The Brute series covers virtually every truck storage configuration a contractor or fleet operator needs, and is available in a range of sizes to fit standard and long bed trucks. Upfit Supply carries the full Brute storage lineup — browse by configuration using the category links above.

What is the difference between a Westin grille guard and a bull bar?

A grille guard is a full frame-mounted steel structure that covers the entire front end of the truck — radiator, headlights, and front clip — mounting directly to the vehicle frame at multiple points for maximum structural rigidity. A bull bar is a lighter, bolt-on alternative that mounts to the front bumper or bumper brackets and provides center-line protection without the full wraparound coverage of a grille guard. Grille guards offer more comprehensive protection and are the choice for contractors in high-impact environments (wildlife, brush, jobsite fender benders). Bull bars are the choice when front-end protection is desired without the weight, complexity, or visual presence of a full grille guard. Both are available from Westin in multiple series — contact our team if you need help choosing the right configuration for your truck and application.

What warranty does Westin Automotive offer?

Westin warranty terms vary by product line and finish. Chrome and polished finish products — including most HDX Grille Guards, R5 and R7 Boards, PRO TRAXX Step Bars, E-Series Bull Bars, and Safari Bars — carry a 5-year limited warranty. Black powder coat and textured black products — including HDX Drop Steps, HDX Bumpers, HD Headache Racks, and Brute tool boxes — carry a 12-month limited warranty. Select Brute tool box configurations carry a lifetime warranty. Always confirm the warranty term on the specific product listing before purchasing. Westin's warranty covers repair or replacement of defective products and does not include electrical components or light bulb replacement.

Does Westin make products specifically for cargo vans?

Yes — Westin makes a dedicated Sprinter Van product lineup including running boards and steps purpose-built for Mercedes Sprinter cargo vans, and carries van-compatible running boards and steps for other major van platforms. Upfit Supply carries Westin van running boards and steps as part of the full Westin product offering. If you're looking for a specific van platform fitment, use the year/make/model filter on the collection page or contact our team to confirm availability.

Can I build a complete truck package using only Westin products?

For most full-size pickup truck applications, yes — Westin's catalog is broad enough to cover running boards or steps, a headache rack or overhead rack, grille guard or bull bar, tool box storage, bed cover, bed liner, and LED lighting all from a single brand. Running a single brand across multiple accessory categories simplifies purchasing, creates a consistent aesthetic across a fleet, and means a single warranty relationship for all covered products. If you're building out a complete truck package and want to spec it across Westin categories, our team can help you put together the right configuration.
