Self-Installing Sidesteps...
Hey again,
I ordered a pair of sidesteps and figured I'd install them myself being that it doesn't require much intensive labor.
Has anyone self installed these? I seen the pre-drilled threaded holes on the frame and figured it couldn't be too time consuming.
Comments appreciated.  |

Haven't installed any but I took them off. Took maybe 10 minutes max and it only took that long because they were so tight when installed at the dealer.

Awesome, Now I really look forward to installing them, and I'm sure the wife will love the fact that I won't be throwing the F-Bomb thru the neighborhood come Saturday .  |

They come with 4 bolts but I just use two and never have had a problem - that makes it about 5 minutes total time.
