I couldn't take it anymore, my latest mod....

After looking at everyone's pics last night of how some removed their lower steps and replaced them with their own design, I decided to modify mine.

I simply drilled holes one inch down and 3/8" closer. I then cut the bracket to fit the upper slide bar and bolted them back in.

Not a super big difference but you can tell they are in there tighter. Looks much better to me and I can still use them.
