Thanks PhilD for the removeable steps. These are a royal PITA to install. I'm not kidding.

Start by removing the factory running boards because they're going to get bent up and rust anyway. There's 8 nuts and bolts. Start on the outside and work to the center. Piece of cake.

Now for the difficult part, installing the removeable steps. Sit on the ground. Hold step and line up alignment bungs to holes under rock rail and slide on. I said, "align the bungs... ALIGN THE BUNGS!"

Ok, so that's the real problem, aligning those damn things did take a few minutes.

Run the bolt through after aligning the bungs and holes, screw bolt in and insert cotter pin.

I only installed two because I got tired of f**king with it and it was cold.

P.S. I just wanted to say "bung" and "hole" in the same sentence.

Thanks again, Phil.

I'll talk to the woman. If she doesn't care about the rear two, I'll send you the front one's if you want them.

What is up with the bung holes not easily lining up. And which way do you install the bungs to the holes F to R or R to F

GLBLWARMR 12-19-2005 11:06 PM

That is definetly a better look than the stock running boards.

And here's the BIG thing. They came off PhilD's truck. Ok? There's no telling what these things have been through.

Seriously, I was joking about lining them up... some.

Thanks again Phil. CP REALLY appreciates them.

See, I told you guys it was a PITA.

Nice location.
A complete lack of respect for the law.
